Re: Apache 2.0.54(Worker) installation on RHES not working(Zombie processes on startup)

[Pau Garcia i Quiles <pg...@elpauer.org>]

Quoting siba.dora@wipro.com:

I am using Apache 2.0.54 on RHEL3u5 with no problems. It's working as a
reverse-proxy with mod_disk_cache.

I did have problems with RHEL3u5's Apache2 package, though. Caching did 
not work
(and yes, DSOs were loaded), so I had to install from sources. I can't 
remember
now, but I think RHEL3u5 comes with Apache 2.0.46 + security patches up to
2.0.53. That's the version I was having problems with.
