Starting Apache Separately

Hi,

I'm running WebNMS on linux machine. I've seen all the posts on adding libraries to your bundled apache. But that seems quite difficult. I don't want to install Debian either.

Anyway, I have my own apache server running. And I can change the document directories to the WebNMS directory so that all the jar files are found. However, now when I run startnms, it would check the port 9090 (that's what I set for my apache) and gives an error that the port should be freed up.

If I modify the startwebserver scripts to run my linux apache, still startnms won't be able to run apache.

So is there anyway, that I run apache manually and not through webnms.

Thanks,
Ali.
