[Bug 240160] Re: Restart server button remains, even after no changes are made

 

restart uses 'graceful restart' so users should not be effected by any
restarts.

this would still be nice to have

Status in rapache: Confirmed

Bug description:
After you remove a vhost you've just added the message that you have to restart the apache server before the changes become effective is still there. You could say that the user should be smart enough to keep in mind that he made no actual changes and thus can exit or continue doing something else safely, but not very experienced users might get confused and do restart the server. At your home host this isn't very bad, because only you are suffering. However, when this program is going to used more often it will probably also be used on more critical servers. If they go down for a while, users/visitors can suffer from it.

What I suggest is to log internally every change made and when it's set back to the original value and there's no other change the restart server message is removed. This action register can also be used for other things in the future like an Undo/Redo button.
