Hi, I am new to administering my own websites (non-shared servers) and am having some problems. My server is only displaying static images like pictures and thumbnails. No scripting or database connections. I had everything at the defaults but noticed that it would stop loading once in a while. I would restart httpd and everything was good for a little bit and then the same problem. Now it won't even go a few minutes before I get errors and the server starts to refuse connections. [Sat Nov 07 02:05:55 2009] [notice] Apache/2.2.3 (CentOS) configured -- resuming normal operations [Sat Nov 07 02:08:10 2009] [error] server reached MaxClients setting, consider raising the MaxClients setting My httpd.conf settings: Timeout 120 KeepAlive Off MaxKeepAliveRequests 100 KeepAliveTimeout 15 <IfModule prefork.c> StartServers 8 MinSpareServers 5 MaxSpareServers 20 ServerLimit 1024 MaxClients 1024 MaxRequestsPerChild 4000 </IfModule> <IfModule worker.c> StartServers 2 MaxClients 1024 MinSpareThreads 25 MaxSpareThreads 75 ThreadsPerChild 50 MaxRequestsPerChild 0 </IfModule> As you can see I changed the default values to higher numbers but still get the same error within minutes. Even at peak times I'm getting no more than 50 pageviews a second. Am I configuring it wrong? It doesn't seem to be a memory or cpu problem, as they are both pretty low overall.
