Subject: Allow restart of httpd to occur even with syntax errors in the config
X-Git-Tag: pre_ajp_proxy~2120
X-Git-Url: https://granicus.if.org/sourcecode?a=commitdiff_plain;h=1a344d46b69651bba195d62c547cce259cdb99a9;p=apache

Allow restart of httpd to occur even with syntax errors in the config
file.  (Out-of-date DSOs with bad MMNs will still be fatal unfortunately.)

Add return parameter to ap_process_config_tree - OK on success, !OK on
syntax error.  We will no longer call exit() from ap_process_config_tree.
The caller must exit if there is an error (makes sense anyway).  This allows
the initial start-up code to delay the exit until trying to let the
signal_server optional function execute first.

(The chances are that the syntax error isn't in the PidFile directive.  If
that happens, we'll try the default one.  Oh, well.)

PR: 16813
