Starting Up

When executing httpd, you should remember the following command line flags:

-d directory
This specifies a different ServerRoot than /usr/local/etc/httpd and controls where httpd will look for its configuration files.
-f file
This specifies a Server Configuration File for httpd to start up with.
-v
If you ever get confused about which version of httpd you are using, this will print the software version.

Depending on your setting for ServerType, this step will be performed in two different ways:

You selected inetd.

You selected standalone.
