Microhttpd Status: ACTIVE
Restart the Web server
Restarts the Web server in case of microhttpd failure.
NOTE:
Use this command only if the Micro-http deamon (MHD) is inactive. Status of the MHD can be verified using
the importcli mhd_status command. When the restart_webServer command runs successfully, MHD becomes
active. Also, the Web server should not be restarted while import is in progress on the host. Contact your service provider
before using this CLI command.
