Try looking at the latest entries in the Apache server logs. If the latest entries are all quite old (minimum five minutes I'd say) then you can go ahead.

beside the log file is it have any real time checking of the user?
what i want is to check that is it any user access my apache server. if make sure that there is no user at that time i will close down my server and update.
if there is a user how can i block the traffic and let the previous user complete their transaction then i will down the whole server. how can i perform it.

You can get a list of the current requests by using "apachectl fullstatus". From the man page:

Quote:

fullstatus
Displays a full status report from mod_status. For this to work, you need to
have mod_status enabled on your server and a text-based browser such as lynx
available on your system. The URL used to access the status report can be set
by editing the STATUSURL variable in the script.
