Subject: WWW Form Bug Report: "httpd run away processes" on BSDI

Submitter: hribnak@nucleus.com
Operating system: BSDI, version: 2.1
Extra Modules used: Stock Apache 1.0.3
URL exhibiting problem: http://www.nucleus.com/~bobo

Symptoms:
--
The problem is when someone goes to a users web page
and they no longer have an index.html that httpd
process that was trying to connect to that page
starts eating CPU resources. And each time someone
connects to a URL that once had an index.html but
no longer does will result in this problem

All I do then is kill the runaways and then all is 
fine until someone connects to pages where no 
index.html exits

Please get back to me asap we have a busy web site
350,000 hits per week
