Possible to stop WHM from restarting Apache?

[jdhf99]

Is it possible to stop WHM from restarting Apache when it deletes an account? I can't seem to figure out how or where it's restarting it from or how to shut it off.

Does anyone know how I could stop this from happening?

Thanks

It is recommended you restart Apache after deleting an account. If you are performing mass account terminations, there was a thread a couple of months ago discussing how to prevent Apache from restarting after every account termination ( http://forums.cpanel.net/showthread.php?t=72054 ). However, even in that discussion, it is recommended to restart Apache once account maintenance has completed.

Here's a related bugzilla entry if you are performing mass account terminations: http://bugzilla.cpanel.net/show_bug.cgi?id=4838

Hi,

Apache fails to restart itself when I delete multiple accounts in a row. What I'm looking for is how to disable it from restarting all together when I decide to terminate multiple accounts. I tried moving apachectl all together, put /rc.d/init.d/httpd > /dev/null , but somehow WHM still restarts Apache.

I read the bugzilla entry and I see at the end an example of how to modify a script to not restart Apache. The problem is I'm not using an external script to do this.

Thanks.

Well that's a different animal altogether. You may wish to contact your cPanel Licensing Provider for assistance regarding this issue.
