Topic: HTTP_Server status is Stop. Not able to restart it.


Description: HTTP_Server was not getting stop and was throwing error “$ORACLE_HOME/Apache/Apache/bin/apachectl hardstop: httpd (no pid file) not running” in $ORACLE_HOME/opmn/logs/HTTP_Server~1.log


Solution: 

1. opmnctl status
2. find the pid of HTTP_Server from step 1 output
3. kill -9 pid_of_HTTP_Server
4. opmnctl status (HTTP_Server will automatically come up. In case status is DOWN, execute opmnctl startall process-type=HTTP_Server)
