Server Control: Stop
•
Rollover to switch to new log files without changing the configuration or stopping
the server
For more information about these options, see the descriptions of the corresponding
scripts in Section 6, Managing the iTP Secure WebServer Using Scripts.
If this is the first time you have started the server since using the Administration Server
to edit the configuration file, the screen also displays the line “using edited
configuration file.” If you have not edited the configuration file since the last time you
started the server, the screen displays the line “using current configuration file.”
What You Do
If you wish to use the current configuration file instead of the newly edited version,
select “using current configuration file.”
When the display indicates the configuration file you want to use, click the button for
the restart function you want. Then click the Submit button.
What Happens Next
If the iTP Secure WebServer environment restarts without error, the screen displays a
message saying that startup was successful. If you have restarted the server after
editing the configuration file, the display also indicates that the previous file was
replaced, and it tells you where the previous version of the file now resides. (The file
name of the previous version has the extension .backup.)
If errors make it impossible to restart the server, the screen displays that the server
failed to restart. At the bottom of the screen you’ll see the messages logged by the iTP
Secure WebServer during startup. Look for and correct errors in your configuration file.
Server Control: Stop
This screen lets you stop the iTP Secure WebServer environment. You reach it by
selecting Stop from the menu on the left side of the screen.
What You See
The screen displays the title Server Control: Stop and directs you to click a button to
stop the server.
What You Do
Click the Stop Server Now button to stop the server.
Note. Even if your edited file doesn’t restart the server successfully, the Administration Server
replaces the previous configuration with your edited file. To return your server to operation,
delete the new configuration file, rename the file that has the extension .backup, and start the
server again.
