To: apache-bugs%apache.org@organic.com
Subject: [BUG]: "Type Map file bug causes 100% CPU and mem leak" on OTHER:DG/UX

Submitter: weave@dtcc.edu
Operating system: OTHER:DG/UX, version: 4.11
Version of Apache Used: 1.2B7
Extra Modules used: None
URL exhibiting problem: Not on your life! :)

Symptoms:
--
If a trailing slash is included after a type map
file URL, apache goes into a constant write state,
dropping the connection doesn't stop it, it consumes
100% of CPU, and a huge memory leak starts.

I tried to reproduce it successfully on a Linux 
box running the RedHat distribution (apache 1.1.1)

In this case, it hung the entire system. This is
a dual-pentium so it shouldn't have consumed BOTH
CPUs...
