This article describes how to create a bash file to restart the apache server.

Open a terminal window and use the following command to create a new bash script file:

nano restart_apache.sh

Enter the following code into the file:

#!/bin/bash

sudo service apache2 restart

Save the file and exit the text editor by pressing Ctrl + X, then Y, and finally Enter.

Make the script executable by running the following command:

chmod +x restart_apache.sh

To run the script, simply execute the following command in the terminal:

./restart_apache.sh

Note: The above code assumes that you’re using the Apache 2 web server on a Debian-based Linux distribution. If you’re using a different distribution, the service name may differ, for example, in CentOS, the service name is “httpd”.
