Reload apache within a python script on linux-CodePudding

Hi I am trying to create a python file that reloads apache2 the code of this file is:

import os

os.system("service apache2 reload")

When I use the command in the terminal everything works fine but when I run the python script I got this error:

Job for apache2.service failed.
See "systemctl status apache2.service" and "journalctl -xe" for details.

so I checked the journalctl and got this:

nov 29 13:50:19 gerrietech apachectl[37415]: Action 'graceful' failed.
nov 29 13:50:19 gerrietech apachectl[37415]: The Apache error log may have more information.

end this comes out of the error log:

AH00558: apache2: Could not reliably determine the server's fully qualified domain name, using 192.168.50.183. Set the 'ServerName' directive globally to suppress this message

How do i fix this?
