Re: starting/stopping a daemon from Apache/mod

Have you tried, system '/path/to/daemonctl', 'stop'; or whatever other argument you may need for daemonctl?

It doesn't matter how to kill the daemon, system() or kill() or something else... The problem is to stop the daemon out of the Apache. If I type "apachectl stop" or "kill <APACHEPID>" I want to trigger an event in the Apache (system, kill...) that stops my daemon.	[reply]

That is a question that has nothing to do with Perl or perl, and all with Apache. You will have more luck asking this question in forum where this kind of questions are on-topic. Abigail	[reply]

It's not offtopic, see some posts below for a working solution, which is in fact pure perl! :)	[reply]
