Now, when i mannualy restart apache all works fine.
I just want to know what command directadmin runs hourly (that restarts apache). Is it 'service httpd restart' or reload, condrestart...?

Thanks in advance,

DirectAdmin should not be restarting apache every hour unless you modified the tally cronjob to run every hour.

I don't know what the command they use. Runs in my mind that it was reload unless it was the service monitor trying to start it.
Drop support a line and let us know if they don't get to this thread.
