Hi Group, Need someones help big time, I am new to Apache as I have recently started a new position in a compnay... Anyway enough of the boring stuff. We are currently using 2.0.54 which has been very stable but all of a suddern has started to play up big time. Apache is critical to our systems and as such need to be running 24/7. The problem as far as I can see is that the service is still running but it is not allowing any connections. The workaround is via sitescope to run a query on our oracle DB and if the query returns a zero to run a bat file that restarts Apache. I have uninstalled all the MS updates to our servers to see if that would make the system stable but it looks like it has not work. the onlu other thing I can do is to upgrade to the latest version but when i looked at the conf file it is completely different to the one we are using.. hence to call for help.. Looking forward to your response. Ken
Are you running it on windows? You can try increasing value for "ThreadsPerChild" and set some value like 10000 for "MaxRequestsPerChild" if its zero. Reduce "Timeout" (like 180 instead of 300 default) and "KeepAliveTimeout" (5 is recommended). Also try disabling "KeepAlive" if the problem persists.
