Could not determine Apache connector version

[evanc19799295]

I'm trying to execute wsconfig on the following platform:

Ubuntu 14.04

Apache 2.4.7

Coldfusion 2016

When I run:

sudo /opt/coldfusion10/cfusion/runtime/bin/wsconfig -ws Apache -dir /etc/apache2/conf-available -bin /usr/sbin/apache2 -script /usr/sbin/apache2ctl -v

Ignore the coldfusion10 part in the path. I just haven't updated directory names just yet in my chef/vagrant cookbook/recipes/whatever files.

I get:

command line: -ws Apache -dir /etc/apache2/conf-available -bin /usr/sbin/apache2 -script /usr/sbin/apache2ctl -v

Using Apache binary /usr/sbin/apache2

Could not determine Apache connector version.

Check that the Apache binary path /usr/sbin/apache2 is correct.

When I run:

which apache2

I get:

/usr/sbin/apache2

When I run:

which apache2ctl

I get:

/usr/sbin/apache2ctl

According to this https://helpx.adobe.com/pdf/coldfusion2016-support-matrix.pdf Apache 2.4.X is supported on Linux 64-bit.

What am I missing? Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

Hi Evan,

Could you please refer the below syntax for connector configuration:

cf_root/runtime/bin/wsconfig -ws Apache -bin /opt/apache2/bin/httpd -script /opt/apache2/bin/apachectl -dir /opt/apache2/conf -v

It seems that the command is incorrect.

Also, you could create the connector manually using the below link:

Hi Abhjha,

Thanks for the suggestion. Unfortunately, the path /opt/apache2 doesn't exist on my platform.

And yes, I have reverted to installing the connector by scripting the manual steps.

Would be nice though to know why the wsconfig utility is failing and why it thinks the the path /usr/sbin/apache2 is not correct.

Hi Evan,

Did you ever find out why this doesn't work?  I am going through the same thing now

Thanks,

This works for me:

-ws Apache -dir /etc/apache2/ -bin /usr/sbin/apache2ctl -script /usr/sbin/apache2ctl -v

(-bin and -script both pointing to apache2ctl)
