cwp-httpd not recognized by yum as webserver
« on: February 19, 2018, 02:59:42 PM »
it seems that cwp-httpd is lacking the rmp descriptor as 'webserver' and thus is not being recognized by yum as httpd. As a result any package requiring httpd wants to install http from source repo, notwithstanding that any such package will not be interacting with cwp-httpd but only with the httpd from the source repo.

Code: [Select]
yum list installed httpd does not show cwp-httpd-2.4.29-2.x86_64 as installed, i.e. it is not recognizing it as 'webserver'.
The OS is not even recognizing it as httpd, just
Code: [Select]
httpd -v
The latter aside the rpm semantics apparently provide for specification of the package and cwp-httpd seems to be missing 'webserver' as rpm descriptor and thence not being recognized by yum. In comparison the stock httpd ships with that descriptor.

yum list installed | grep httpd

what httpd -v output is?

grep is irrelevant for yum's installation routine, I am afraid. You can test with no other httpd app installed than cwp-httpd and installing an app with httpd as dependency.  yum does not recognize cwp-httpd as httpd and will want to install the stock httpd instead.

As for the command line use

Usage: httpd [-D name] [-d directory] [-f file]
                                   [-C "directive"] [-c "directive"]
                                   [-k start|restart|graceful|graceful-stop|stop]
                                   [-v] [-V] [-h] [-l] [-L] [-t] [-T] [-S] [-X]
Options:
  -D name            : define a name for use in <IfDefine name> directives
  -d directory       : specify an alternate initial ServerRoot
  -f file            : specify an alternate ServerConfigFile
  -C "directive"     : process directive before reading config files
  -c "directive"     : process directive after reading config files
  -e level           : show startup errors of level (see LogLevel)
  -E file            : log startup errors to file
  -v                 : show version number
  -V                 : show compile settings
  -h                 : list available command line options (this page)
  -l                 : list compiled in modules
  -L                 : list available configuration directives
  -t -D DUMP_VHOSTS  : show parsed vhost settings
  -t -D DUMP_RUN_CFG : show parsed run settings
  -S                 : a synonym for -t -D DUMP_VHOSTS -D DUMP_RUN_CFG
  -t -D DUMP_MODULES : show all loaded modules
  -M                 : a synonym for -t -D DUMP_MODULES

cwp-httpd comes with pre compiled http app. Its downloaded with centos web panel repository. For manual installation you can try.

what httpd -v output is?

With the dormant stock httpd shipped with CWP the output is
Quote
Server version: Apache/2.4.6 (CentOS)
Server built:   Oct 19 2017 20:39:16

If that stock httpd 2.4.6 is removed and only cwp-httpd remains on the system then the output is
Quote
-bash: /usr/sbin/httpd: No such file or directory

That is fine, except there is no reason that it should not be recognised by yum (and OS) as httpd. It is clearly a bug of sorts and should be ironed out, imho.

Nope. As far I can tell the stock comes installed with CWP but sits just dormant (disabled)

httpd doesnt comes pre installed with cwp-httpd. Better remove it and symlink right httpd path

ln -s /usr/local/apache/bin/httpd /usr/sbin/httpd

then run httpd -v

thanks, done this a couple of times and it is fine for the OS links, but does not resolve the matter with yum.

That is making the point then, since I did not install it specifically it must have slipped in as dependency for another yum package

Inspected both rpm packages, cwp-httpd and stock httpd, with a text editor. The difference and what is missing from cwp-httpd is apparent, causing this bug. Not only is 'webserver' absent but also 'httpd'. cwp-httpd only declares its own name to the system/yum.

stock httpd


cwp-httpd

Will that be recognized by yum as httpd?
