Is there a free/open application to stop and start apache?

A am looking for a simple way to stop, start and restart apache on my Mac without having to launch terminal, enter the command and then provide a password.
I find it amazing that I could not find a simple application.
Am I missing something?
Regards,
Jim P.

Yes. I would like to have a little application that shows the current status of the Apache sever and if started, allow me to stop or restart, or if stopped, allow me to start. 
It should also remember the password so that it doesn't always need to be entered.
I know I can do this using the SystemPreferences, but something simple and quicker would be great.

  • Is it necessary to regularly stop and start application to free memory?

    Do we need to stop and start an application regularly to free memory and increase performance? We have had random dynamic calc errors that went away after a stop/start.
    A consultant recommended we script a stop/start to run once per day. We are on version 7.
    I am concerned if the script stops an application while a calc is in progress - database corruption might occur.
    Thanks,

    One big thing you should realize is that if your memory settings are really too large it does not manifest right away. As you perform certain actions the memory is allocated. So if you are on 32-bit Essbase which you are on a V7 platform the combination of your index + page + memory to support outline + calc caches * # of concurrent calcs + dynamic calc cache + about 200 MB needs to all be under 2 GB; when/if you get to a point of too much memory allocation you start getting quite a few interesting errors. Shutting down/starting up is not a proper long term way to manage memory issues -- properly setting the caches and other configurations is proper to resolve long term for that.

    There is no need to download anything to solve this problem.
    You may have installed one or more of the common types of ad-injection malware. Follow the instructions on this Apple Support page to remove it. It's been reported that some variants of the "VSearch" malware block access to the page. If that happens, start in safe mode by holding down the shift key at the startup chime, then try again.
    Back up all data before making any changes.
    One of the steps in the article is to remove malicious Safari extensions. Do the equivalent in the Chrome and Firefox browsers, if you use either of those. If Safari crashes on launch, skip that step and come back to it after you've done everything else.
    If you don't find any of the files or extensions listed, or if removing them doesn't stop the ad injection, ask for further instructions.
    Make sure you don't repeat the mistake that led you to install the malware. It may have come from an Internet cesspit such as "Softonic" or "CNET Download." Never visit either of those sites again. You might also have downloaded it from an ad in a page on some other site. The ad would probably have included a large green button labeled "Download" or "Download Now" in white letters. The button is designed to confuse people who intend to download something else on the same page. If you ever download a file that isn't obviously what you expected, delete it immediately.
    Malware is also found on websites that traffic in pirated content such as video. If you, or anyone else who uses the computer, visit such sites and follow prompts to install software, you can expect more of the same, and worse, to follow. Never install any software that you downloaded from a bittorrent, or that was downloaded by someone else from an unknown source.
    In the Security & Privacy pane of System Preferences, select the General tab. The radio button marked Anywhere  should not be selected. If it is, click the lock icon to unlock the settings, then select one of the other buttons. After that, don't ignore a warning that you are about to run or install an application from an unknown developer.
    Still in System Preferences, open the App Store or Software Update pane and check the box marked
              Install system data files and security updates (OS X 10.10 or later)
    or
              Download updates automatically (OS X 10.9 or earlier)
    if it's not already checked.

  • How to stop and start only the process of Oracle Application Express?

    I'd like to know how to stop the process of Oracle Application Express on my server installed oracle express package.
    After installed Oracle Express edition, not only oracle database server processes but also Oracle Application Express, such as http server, is started automatically...
    I hope to stop and start Application Express on demand but is this feature enabled?

    Oracle Apex is an API, if that helps you understand / visualize. You do not start Apex process nor stop it.
    When an Apex session starts it starts calling the API.
    You can however start / stop the listener. It may be OHS, ApexListener and the J2EE container running it, OC4J or any other "server" that you are using.
    The built-in EPG is something like an API again, you cannot start / stop it but you can disable/enable it with DBMS_XDB.SETHTTPPORT API.

  • APEX 4.2 aligning issue of Stop and Start Grid Layout item

    My APEX application application is in the process of moving from 4.0 to 4.2.  I am experiencing an issue with aligning (left margin justified) of Stop and Start Grid Layout items that have a border around them.  Earlier I had an issue with the border itself not showing up in the 4.2 application.  I was able to resolve that with a workaround by adding inline code in the CSS section of the page: #P23_OFFICE_START_TBL {width:682; border:1px solid #369; margin:5px;}. This created the border which I needed, but there are 2 Stop and Start Grid Layout items that are indented and not aligning with the border of the previous line.  I have tried a number of different things but none of them have worked.  This seems like a very simple issue to fix but I am having a tough time resolving it.
    I tried to put the item in question in a different grid, which corrected the indention but then I lost the border around the item.  It seems that the above CSS code does not work on the new grid.  I also tried to put attributes such as margin-left:5px; float: left; clear: left; float: left, in the CSS code but that did not work, too.
    Any suggestions?
    Thanks
    Ajay K

    I deleted and added back the Stop and Start Grid Layout items not aligning properly.  This worked.  Apparently, the 4.0 to 4.2 upgrade did not handle/convert these items properly.  Deleting and adding them back resolved the issue.

  • SSRS Report queries begin running slowly, have to stop and start report server to restore performance

    We have had a production issue crop up twice now where reports begin running slowly seemingly at random.  
    When this happens we can see from running SQL Profiler that the report queries are taking an extremely long time to execute.  The same queries when run directly in management studio run quickly.  
    Initially I suspected parameter sniffing, and tried using OPTION (RECOMPILE) in the reports, as well as clearing out the particular query from the plan cache and running the SQL in SSMS to try and get a better plan etc but no amount of jiggery pokery by
    me could get the queries to run any faster.
    The really weird thing - is that stopping and starting the report server via the reporting services configuration manager instantly cures the problem.  
    I'd really love to know - why this might be?  Is it something to do with the report server closing and re-opening its connections to the database? That's the only sort of thing I can think of...any ideas? Anyone? Any suggestions would be much appreciated.
    LucasF

    Hi LucasF,
    In your scenario, usually we can monitor the execution log in Report Database. If you run below query, you can get the results how long the report takes to render (TimeRendering), how long to process the report(TimeProcessing) and how long to retrieve data
    from Database(TimeData). You can check the starttime and endtime to know the total time for executing a report.
    SELECT TOP1000 *FROM[ReportServer].[dbo].[ExecutionLog2]
    More details information, please reference to similar thread below:
    Steps for troubleshooting a slow SSRS 2014 server
    Troubleshooting Reports: Report Performance
    In SQL Server Reporting Services, a job will be created by SQL Server Agent if any of the following processes is underway:
    query execution on a remote or local database server
    report processing
    report rendering
    To cancel a job that is running on the report server, we can cancel the job directly or reduce the report execution time-out value in the SQL Server Management Studio and then will stop query execution. Please refer to the steps below:
    Open SQL Server Management Studio, and connect to "Reporting Services".
    Under the Report Server node, right-click on the "Jobs" folder and select "Refresh". Then, right-click on "Jobs" again and click "Cancel All Jobs".
    Right-click on the Report Server node and open the "Server Properties" dialog.
    Click the "Execution" option, and set the "Limit report execution to the following number of seconds:" to a much smaller number. After this issue is resolved, this configuration should revert to the previous state.  
    Reference:
    Managing a Running Process
    Setting Time-out Values for Report and Shared Dataset Processing
    In addition, we can also use the KILL Transact-SQL statement to terminate a normal connection by terminating the transactions that are associated with the specified session ID. For the details information, you can refer to:
    KILL (Transact-SQL)
    If you still have any problem, please feel free to ask.

  • How to stop and start MDBs to listen for JMS messages

    Hello! This might be more of an architecture question rather than a technical questing, but I post it here, in the lack of a better place...
    For several years I have been using Webster and Webster MQ to send messages back and forth to clients. The architecture for the middleware platform has been designed around the functionality of ListenerPorts. Listenerports is a Webster functionality that let you "stop" and start to listen to JMS messages for a given MDB either by admin console, or by JMX.
    The arhitecture we used was something like this :
    1.Client sends a persistent message to a queue. (order)
    2. An MDB pics up the order message, calls a SessionBean that "fronts" the IIOP back end system.
    This is quite "out of the box" architecture, but we used the Listenerports to solve a stability problem for our back end system.
    The backEnd system was quite unstable, so the EJB threw an exception (typically because of timeout or connection refused) back to the MDB.
    The Listenerport was "defined" to handle 3 errors before stopping, so the MDB resent the message twice before the listenerport automatically stopped. The nice thing about this feature was that the client could continue to send orders, and was not bothered when the back end system was down.
    When the backEnd system was up and running, we could start the listenerport and it was all back to normal state. We even had a start script that checked the state of the listenerport every 30 minute, and started it automatically if it was stopped, making the admin task of starting the MDB unnecessary..
    Now.. Why am I telling this story..
    I would like to know how this could be done using "clean" J2EE technologies..That is..Not using any technology that is not portable..
    I`m playing with glassfish at home, and it struck me that there is nothing in the J2EE spec that defines the functionality described above ? Am i missing something ?
    I Do not want to stop My application because the back end system is down? That is the only way (i know of) that i can "stop" to listen for messages..
    I can put all the messages on an error queue when the backbend system is down, but that would lead to more code just to handle the error messages. Maybe the easiest way to solve this is to "move" (programmatically) all messages from the error queue over to the "standard" queue every XX minute, but somehow that sounds "wrong"
    Can anyone give me some advice to how this problem situation should be solved ? I`m interested in the solution both from an architectural perspective and from a more technical perspective..
    Best regards
    Hans-Jacob Melby

    Breakpoints, whether normal or conditional, are just meant for debugging of your code.  I had the sense from your question that the pausing you want to do is a part of normal operation of your code.  I would NOT recommend using a breakpoint for that situation.  It would bring up the block diagram showing the breakpoint when it occurs.  A user besides the programmer would not know what to do in that case.
     Yes, both the inner and outer loops would have shift registers.
    Putting a case structure with a small while loop inside the "Pausing Case" is doable.  It just depends on what you are doing or waiting for while the program operation is "paused".

  • How to stop and start IGS(internet graphic server)

    Hi Techies
    How to stop and start IGS(internet graphic server) in Solaries
    IGS is 7.0 1patch
    Is this the command to stop and start IGS
    stopigs and startigs
    If this correct will there be any issues if i stop the IGS from the above command
    Thank You
    Haroon

    Hoi Haroon
    On base 6.40 there were stopigs/startigs scripts, yes. When we upgraded our systems to 7.0 I encountered the same problem, the igs could be stopped, but not started anymore (externally). Can you check, if the startigs/stopigs-scripts are 7.0 or 6.40.
    I then opened an oss and got as answer:
    "To start and to stop the igs there's only the offical way by stopping and starting the sap system".
    However I found a solution to start and stop:
    start:
    nohup /sapmnt/<SID>/exe/igswd_mt -mode=profile pf=/usr/sap/<SID>/SYS/profile/<Instaneprofile> &
    e.g.:
    nohup /sapmnt/P72/exe/igswd_mt -mode=profile pf=/usr/sap/P72/SYS/profile/P72_DVEBMGS01_migzmc10 &
    stop:
    --> stopigs, therefore the 6.40-stopigs script has to remain in the exe directory.
    Hope this helps.

  • Communication Channel Stop and Start

    Hello everyone,
    We are using XI along with MQ for queing messages to our 3rd party logistics. Due to some issues happened in the past, it is decided to stop and restart the MQ channels every weekend. Now the problem is, when the MQ is down, some of the XI communication channels will go down,  and will not start automatically, when the MQ bounces back. Now this had created a manual activity every weekend to stop and start all communication channels.
    Question is, is there any way we can schedule it as a job to stop and start the channels, at a specific time ?

    Hi!
    It is possible in scheduling the messages in XI...
    1.  But before doing this make sure that at what time you want to be schedule ?
    2.  Is that time will be uniform for every week or else is it may varies ?
    3.  If Uniform please make schedule or else if it is varying note the difference between those timings I mean
         If your Messages are flowing for every Tuesday and also every Thursday...., etc..
    4.  You can schedule what ever may be the time it is suppose if those timings are varying weekly once a
         day but in that single day or next day if it was more than once..then better scheduling the
          communication channels to be start for and to be process for that particular 2 days and remaining days
          it wont work I mean stopping Cc
    5. Now when come to process...in scheduling...
    a) Click RWB>Component Monitoring>Communication Channel monitoiing
    b) Right side u can check Availability TIme planning option click that..a seperate window will opens
        THere u can observe these options..
    c) also u can see the log
    I hope it will be useful to you...
    Availability plan--> ONCE /DIALY / WEEKLY/ MONTHLY based on your req select any one...
    Create: to create the scheduling...
    change: to change the existing one
    Save: to save
    Reset if u want toreset alll
    Delete and copy also as u know these..
    While creating you can again see these options 3 main TABS
    details:  --> Corresponding details
    CC: select ur chanel
    OPTION 2
    In XI 3.O you can directly do scheduling there after selecting the radio button of any Comunication channel and there adjacent to Audit log u can see availability time plan other than rt side top corder..
    I hope it will be useful to u
    Regards

  • Why does iMovie project jerk and stop and start in preview?

    I have been making iMovies with iMovieHD for years using photos with the Ken Burns effect.
    Recently after a movie project gets more than a few minutes long with typical audio and transitions, I no longer can preview it without it jerking and stopping and starting.
    Obviously this does not allow me to see what I am doing, how the music matches or doesn't match my photos.
    I have tried emptying the iMovie trash and emptying my finder trash, no change.
    I have made sure there is plenty of hard disk space on my internal drive, where iMovie and the movie file is located.
    Any ideas?

    Hi
    a. Emptying the trash - something I alway avoid - no matter why.
    b. Plenty of free space on internal (start-up) hard disk ? > 25Gb after
    project is captured and edited ?
    c. Deleted iMovie pref file ?
    d. Known trouble maker: Lot's of audio clips. eg > 50 gives a stuttering result
    Mix down audio to one audio clip.
    e. What kind of original material. 12-bit audio or recording in LP-mode (90min
    on a 60min tape) GIVES problems + audio sync troubles.
    f. .mpg4, .avi, .wmv and other ailient file formats also is problematic.
    g. movie stored on an external USB/USB2 hard disk - often troublemaker.
    I use FireWire AND ONLY: Mac OS Extended formatted -

    If there are problems with updating then best is to download the full version and uninstall the currently installed version.
    Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.

    * Uninstall your current Firefox version.
    * Do not remove personal data when you uninstall the current version.
    Remove the Firefox program folder before installing that newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.
    * It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
    Your bookmarks and other profile data are stored elsewhere in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Firefox Profile Folder] and won't be affected by a reinstall, but make sure that you do not select to remove personal data if you uninstall Firefox.
