apachex has problems with code in tutorial 3

[studersi]

For some reason apachex doesn't kill all apache processes when using the configuration file proposed in Tutorial 3. This prevents it from starting a new apache process using the same port.

(98)Address already in use: AH00072: make_sock: could not bind to address [::]:80
(98)Address already in use: AH00072: make_sock: could not bind to address 0.0.0.0:80
no listening sockets available, shutting down

Note that the PID File has to be configured in the config file (which is not the case for the code in this tutorial) for apachex to work at all. This is a bug that is addressed in PR #75 commit 7cf8575.

Not putting the PID into the config is clearly a bug in the tutorial. Would not fixing said bug make this problem go away?

[studersi]

No, the problem does not go away. I'll create a PR for tutorial 3 though, to add the PidFile directive.
