Attachment: This patch makes the testserver.pl script work on FreeBSD

The commands that are issued by the actual testserver.pl don't work on FreeBSD
because its 'ps' command doesn't have the 'gid' keyword (that is issued by the
script), but 'rgid' or 'pgid' only.
This way the script becomes compatible with both Linux and FreeBSD platforms
(haven't tested on Open/NetBSD).

As an additional comment, this patch only solve 'TEST-WARNING Failed to find the
GID for the 'httpd' process' part of this.

Attachment: Patch to allow testserver.pl test apache group on FreeBSD

Well, since I surprisingly become an assignee, rework  Felipe Brant Scarel's
patch to be unified  diff.
See comments #4 and #5 for details on this particular patch. Actually, it
should be for ANOTHER new bug.

Comment 8

[u197037]

Seems like other part (original) of this bug is due to misconfigured installation.
If my patch would be approved, should we close the bug? And what resolution
should we use (WORKS4ME, INVALID, FIXED) if so?

Comment 9

[Joel Peshkin]

Yes.  This bug should just address the issue that is really in testserver.

If this goes in 2.20, please assign to someone that has 2.20 checkin permissions.
