DO NOT REPLY [Bug 49798] New: [mod_log_config] Piped Log scripts process cause warn

https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=49798

           Summary: [mod_log_config] Piped Log scripts process cause warn
           Product: Apache httpd-2
           Version: 2.2.15
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: mod_log_config
        AssignedTo: bugs@httpd.apache.org
        ReportedBy: l.declercq@nuxwin.com


Hello ;

When I do an 'apache2ctl gracefull', I get following warning in my apache
error.log:

[Sun Aug 22 14:46:00 2010] [warn] long lost child came home! (pid 10436)

After some avestigations, I found that it's the'mod_log_config' module that
cause this issue when we use Piped Log. To show, the problem:


'ps aux' result before do the gracefull:

root      8511  0.1  0.4   6824  4256 ?        Ss   14:18   0:03

/usr/sbin/apache2 -k start

Here, you can see my main Piped Log script process (pid 10502) and the second
(pid 10504) that is the background process from (pid 10436).

When I do the graceful, I get the following:

[Sun Aug 22 14:52:50 2010] [notice] SIGUSR1 received.  Doing graceful restart
[Sun Aug 22 14:52:51 2010] [notice] Stopping ispCP Apache logger (pid 10504)

[Sun Aug 22 14:52:51 2010] [notice] Starting ispCP Apache logger (pid 10579)

Note: Log lines for the logger come from my logging script (Added to show the
problem).

After the gracefull, my 'px aux' result is like this:

root      8511  0.1  0.4   6824  4256 ?        Ss   14:18   0:03

/usr/sbin/apache2 -k start

Ok, it's just a warn but I think that should be solved.  I've tried with
alternative syntax (Shell not involved at all) and the same problem occurs on
the main process.

My system:

root@ispcp:/etc/apache2/sites-available# uname -a

Thank a lot if you can solve this problem.

Note: Sorry for my poor English, I'm french.

Note2: not 2.2.16 version is selectable here , why ?

Use "||process args" to launch the external logger process without invoking the
shell/command interpreter. See the other issue 49768.

Apache configuration:

CustomLog "|| /var/www/ispcp/engine/ispcp-apache-logger" ispcplog

As you can see, the Shell is not involved here.

ps aux result before do the graceful:

root     15016  0.0  0.2   4532  2984 ?        S    18:39   0:00 /usr/bin/perl

/usr/sbin/apache2 -k start


ps aux resulter after the graceful:

root     15089  8.0  0.2   4532  2988 ?        S    18:42   0:00 /usr/bin/perl

www-data 15090  1.0  0.2   6192  2304 ?        S    18:42   0:00
/usr/sbin/apache2 -k start
www-data 15091  0.0  0.2   6824  2132 ?        S    18:42   0:00
/usr/sbin/apache2 -k start
www-data 15092  2.0  0.2 228236  2844 ?        Sl   18:42   0:00
/usr/sbin/apache2 -k start
www-data 15093  1.0  0.2 228236  2844 ?        Sl   18:42   0:00
/usr/sbin/apache2 -k start

Now, the corresponding error logs:


[Sun Aug 22 18:42:21 2010] [notice] SIGUSR1 received.  Doing graceful restart
[Sun Aug 22 18:42:23 2010] [notice] Apache/2.2.16 (Debian) mod_fcgid/2.3.5

[Sun Aug 22 18:42:23 2010] [warn] long lost child came home! (pid 15016)
[Sun Aug 22 18:42:23 2010] [notice] Starting ispCP Apache logger (pid 15089)


As you can see, the process 15016 (my logger script) that is launch by apache
cause the error with graceful.

I hope you understand my sentence now.

Sorry but it's not the same issue. I've already tried to execute without
involving the SHELL. I'll try again and show you the logs result...

Forgot the first description and read this:

When I do an 'apache2ctl graceful', I get following warning in my apache
error.log:

[Sun Aug 22 14:46:00 2010] [warn] long lost child came home! (pid 10436)

After some avestigations, I found that it's the'mod_log_config' module that
cause this issue when we use Piped Log. To show, the problem:


'ps aux' result before do the gracefull:

Here, you can see my main Piped Log script process (pid 10502) and the second
(pid 10504) that is the background process from the first (/bin/sh -c ; pid
10502).

When I do the graceful, I get the following:

Note: Log lines for the logger come from my logging script (Added to show the
problem).
