20
21 -d|--httpd
22 The HTTP daemon command-line that will be executed. Command-line
23 options may be specified here, and the configuration file will be

25 apache2 are the only supported servers. (Default: lighttpd)

28 The module path (only needed if httpd is Apache). (Default:
29 /usr/lib/apache2/modules)

39 --start
40 Start the httpd instance and exit. This does not generate any of
41 the configuration files for spawning a new instance.
42

44 Stop the httpd instance and exit. This does not generate any of the
45 configuration files for spawning a new instance, nor does it close
46 the browser.
47

49 Restart the httpd instance and exit. This does not generate any of
50 the configuration files for spawning a new instance.
