apache2 service file for 66 suite with S6 on antiX-19.3

[Member notospam]

Hello

I’ve managed to install 66 suite thanks to excellent Eric’s guide https://www.antixforum.com/forums/topic/is-antix-going-to-get-s6-init-manager/page/2/#post-54931

I’m wondering if anybody has managed to get apache2 working on top of 66 suite. I’ve tried modifying apache2 service from Obarun httpd-66serv git to no success. As I understand debian’s version of apache2 is compiled differently from Arch Linux.
Apache2 on Debian must be started with command #service apache2 start
or
apache2ctl.
At the launch time both scripts read environmental variables from /etc/apache2/envvars (probably in case of multiples instances running together). So direct adaptation of Obarun’s httpd service file fails (simply replacing command httpd to apache2) because environmental variables needs to be read from file /etc/apache2/envvars before launching apache2 -k start -DFOREGROUND .
When I try to replace “httpd -k start -DFOREGROUND” with “apache2ctl start ” – this fails again without even log entry under /var/log/66/apache2 .

Eric quickly suggested the following service file but it fails with error execl-envfile: fatal: unable to get value from line: : Success

Debian’s apache2 implementation is complicated according to Debian Bug apache2: please add systemd service file .

Please help!

could please you post the contents of the /etc/apache2/envvars file?

Here’s the output. I’ve included /etc/default/apache-htcacheclean and apache2.conf

cat /etc/apache2/envvars

cat /etc/apache2/apache2.conf

# This is the main Apache server configuration file.  It contains the
# configuration directives that give the server its instructions.
# See http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/ for detailed information about
# the directives and /usr/share/doc/apache2/README.Debian about Debian specific
# hints.
#
#
# Summary of how the Apache 2 configuration works in Debian:
# The Apache 2 web server configuration in Debian is quite different to
# upstream's suggested way to configure the web server. This is because Debian's
# default Apache2 installation attempts to make adding and removing modules,
# virtual hosts, and extra configuration directives as flexible as possible, in
# order to make automating the changes and administering the server as easy as
# possible.

# It is split into several files forming the configuration hierarchy outlined
# below, all located in the /etc/apache2/ directory:

# * apache2.conf is the main configuration file (this file). It puts the pieces
#   together by including all remaining configuration files when starting up the
#   web server.
#
# * ports.conf is always included from the main configuration file. It is
#   supposed to determine listening ports for incoming connections which can be
#   customized anytime.
#
# * Configuration files in the mods-enabled/, conf-enabled/ and sites-enabled/
#   directories contain particular configuration snippets which manage modules,
#   global configuration fragments, or virtual host configurations,
#   respectively.
#
#   They are activated by symlinking available configuration files from their
#   respective *-available/ counterparts. These should be managed by using our
#   helpers a2enmod/a2dismod, a2ensite/a2dissite and a2enconf/a2disconf. See
#   their respective man pages for detailed information.
#
# * The binary is called apache2. Due to the use of environment variables, in
#   the default configuration, apache2 needs to be started/stopped with
#   /etc/init.d/apache2 or apache2ctl. Calling /usr/bin/apache2 directly will not
#   work with the default configuration.

# Global configuration
#
#
# ServerRoot: The top of the directory tree under which the server's
# configuration, error, and log files are kept.
#
# NOTE!  If you intend to place this on an NFS (or otherwise network)
# mounted filesystem then please read the Mutex documentation (available
# at <URL:http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/mod/core.html#mutex>);
# you will save yourself a lot of trouble.
#
# Do NOT add a slash at the end of the directory path.
#
#ServerRoot "/etc/apache2"

# The accept serialization lock file MUST BE STORED ON A LOCAL DISK.
#
#Mutex file:${APACHE_LOCK_DIR} default

#
# The directory where shm and other runtime files will be stored.
#

#
# PidFile: The file in which the server should record its process
# identification number when it starts.
# This needs to be set in /etc/apache2/envvars
#
PidFile ${APACHE_PID_FILE}

#
# Timeout: The number of seconds before receives and sends time out.
#
Timeout 300

#
# KeepAlive: Whether or not to allow persistent connections (more than
# one request per connection). Set to "Off" to deactivate.
#
KeepAlive On

#
# MaxKeepAliveRequests: The maximum number of requests to allow
# during a persistent connection. Set to 0 to allow an unlimited amount.
# We recommend you leave this number high, for maximum performance.
#
MaxKeepAliveRequests 100

# KeepAliveTimeout: Number of seconds to wait for the next request from the
# same client on the same connection.
#
KeepAliveTimeout 5

# HostnameLookups: Log the names of clients or just their IP addresses
# e.g., www.apache.org (on) or 204.62.129.132 (off).
# The default is off because it'd be overall better for the net if people
# had to knowingly turn this feature on, since enabling it means that
# each client request will result in AT LEAST one lookup request to the
# nameserver.
#
HostnameLookups Off

# ErrorLog: The location of the error log file.
# If you do not specify an ErrorLog directive within a <VirtualHost>
# container, error messages relating to that virtual host will be
# logged here.  If you *do* define an error logfile for a <VirtualHost>
# container, that host's errors will be logged there and not here.

ok so you cannot employ execl-envfile here, /etc/apache2/envvars have shell in it.
This is simple to solve, use bash instead of execlineb at the @execute field.

[main]
@type = classic
@version = 0.0.7
@description = "Apache HTTP Server"
@maxdeath = 3
@notify = 4
@user = (root)
@timeout-up = 3000

[start]
@build = custom
@shebang = "/usr/bin/bash"
@execute = (
exec 2>&1
source /etc/apache2/envvars
apache2 -k start -DFOREGROUND
)
[stop]
@build = custom
@shebang = "/usr/bin/bash"
@execute = (
exec 2>&1
source /etc/apache2/envvars
apache2 -k graceful-stop
)

apache2 doesn’t start with following error:

apache2: Syntax error on line 80 of /etc/apache2/apache2.conf: DefaultRuntimeDir must be a valid directory, absolute or relative to ServerRoot

Seems like service doesn’t pickup or transfer variables to apache2 exec.

I’ve modified the service file and added variables from /etc/apache2/envvars :

[main]
@type = classic
@version = 0.0.9
@description = "Apache HTTP Server"
@maxdeath = 3
@notify = 4
@user = (root)
@timeout-up = 3000
@options = (log env)

[start]
@execute = (
#execl-envfile /etc/apache2/envvars
apache2 -k start -DFOREGROUND
)
[stop]
@execute = (
#execl-envfile /etc/apache2/envvars
apache2 -k graceful-stop
)

[environment]
APACHE_RUN_USER=www-data
APACHE_RUN_GROUP=www-data
APACHE_PID_FILE=/var/run/apache2/apache2.pid
APACHE_RUN_DIR=/var/run/apache2
APACHE_LOCK_DIR=/var/lock/apache2
APACHE_LOG_DIR=/var/log/apache2
LANG=!C
APACHE_LYNX='www-browser -dump'
#APACHE_ULIMIT_MAX_FILES='ulimit -n 65536'
#APACHE_ARGUMENTS=''
APACHE2_MAINTSCRIPT_DEBUG=1

Doesn’t start, but gives different error:

httpd (no pid file) not running
