/etc/rc will only look for startup scripts in /usr/local/etc/rc.d/ ending
in .sh
so you can do either
1) rename the apachectl script to apachectl.sh
or 2) put apachectl in /usr/local/sbin/ and instead put apache.sh in
/usr/local/etc/rc.d/
I'd suggest (2). Thats the way it came 'out of the box' for me.
I've attached my apache.sh.
Regards,
Tony(See attached file: apache.sh)

I am building a new web server for an ISP, and I am having trouble
getting Apache to start up automatically when the machine comes up.
I am running FreeBSD 4.5 RELEASE on a 1GHz PIII. I have installed
apachectl in /usr/local/etc/rc.d, and set it to 755. I can start apache
from the command manually in that directory like this:
/usr/local/etc/rc.d/apachectl start
and it comes up just fine.
It does take about 15 seconds for it to start as there are a couple
hundred virtual hosts it is starting up. Is init giving up after a certain
length of time, before apachectl has time to finish firing up httpd? If
so, is there a way this can be configured? I can't seem to locate any
documentation that covers this specific problem. Thanks.
