HTTP process passed from Apache Webserver to Tomcat

[Nico Steiner <st...@luratech.de>]

The problem is with an Apache Webserver and a Tomcat servlet engine, and

occurs when HTTP requests are passed from the webserver to the servlet.
Occasionally the HTTP process doesn't terminate correctly and appears to

be stuck in an endless loop, with the hung process using up unnecessary
processor resources. The process can be manually killed without any
problem and without causing Tomcat to crash.
This problem doesn't occur regularly but at seemingly random intervals.

The webserver and servlet engine are running in the following
environment:

- 2 processor system
- Apache 1.3, module "mod_jk", protocol "AJP12"
- Linux 6.4 (Suse) Kernel 2.2.14-SMP
- Tomcat 3.1

The data stream being delivered from the webserver to the servlet
contains binary data.

Does anyone know how to solve this problem? Any help would be greatly
appreciated!

Thanks!
