Hi Wol,

It was very difficult to get Apache working with systemd Gentoo.
No apache2.service found with apache installation.
so i looked at the Linux Mint OS to copy the apache2.service.
These commands

ExecStart=/usr/sbin/apachectl start
ExecStop=/usr/sbin/apachectl graceful-stop
ExecReload=/usr/sbin/apachectl graceful

did not work at all...
BUT,
By manually launching /usr/bin/apache2ctl, it  worked.

So i wrote a little simple bash script /usr/bin/op_apache

#!/bin/bash

case ${1} in
"start")
apache2ctl
;;
"stop")
killall apache2
;;
"restart")
killall apache2
sleep 1
apache2ctl
;;
esac

And in apache2.service, i put :

ExecStart=/usr/bin/op_apache start
ExecStop=/usr/bin/op_apache stop
ExecReload=/usr/sbin/op_apache restart

Now it works fine, but what a headache !

Cheers,
