Control a custom Apache install via the Sharing panel
Rather than using
ln to link to your custom apachectl, I'd copy it to /usr/sbin/apachectl (after moving the original to /usr/sbin/apachectl.orig). Otherwise, when Apple releases a system update that replaces apachectl, it'll overwrite your non-Apple copy, and you won't be able to re-replace the updated Apple version with your version.
Control a custom Apache install via the Sharing panel
Eh? They already did this to me with the 10.3.7 update and all it did was overwrite the symbolic link file in /usr/sbin--didn't affect my original install in /uar/local/apache2 at all. All I had to do was mv that file to apache-1.3 (what I'm calling my old apachectl) and relink apachectl again.
A better (?) alternative
A better alternative is to use Server Logistics' donationware Apache 2 builds. I've had to have a single problem with them. Note: it is Apache 2, and comes with some extras like its own Prefpane, easy editing of configs, and easy viewing of logs.
Can be found here And if the update schedule is slow for your fancy, follow this MacOSXHints article
A better (?) alternative
I have installed Server Logistic's Apache 2 build, but it won't automatically start Apache when my computer is restarted, even though the "Start Apache 2 at Boot" checkbox is checked. Kind of annoying.
