Help tracking down a problem please.

[Mario Felarca <ge...@yahoo.com>]

Hello,

I am using Apache 1.3.22+mod_jk+mod_ssl(2.8.5 I believe)+Tomcat 3.3a on Win2K.

Currently, we have a context that has all data (i.e. images, scripts, 
applets) served up through Tomcat. The request comes in via HTTPS and on 
particularly heavy pages, for example ones that have a lot of images, we 
get an Apache.exe termination error talking about how an instruction could 
not reference memory at a location.

If I hit refresh on this page, I can get it to crash almost every time.

Now, the webserver itself doesn't crash. In the process manager, the 
Apache.exe never goes away, and the logs are not flushed. If I click "OK" 
on the error dialog, the page continues loading and eventually finishes 
correctly. This leads me to belive that it is a module that is crashing and 
restarting.

Has anyone seen this kind of behavior with a similar set-up? Is this a 
known bug that I just haven't found the information to yet? Does anyone 
know of workarounds that will help?

In looking at the logs, the only thing that stands out at the timestamps 
where these crashes occur is the following from the Apache sslinfo.log file.

Init: 4nd restart round (already detached)
[04/Feb/2002 15:58:02 01972] [info]  Init: Reinitializing OpenSSL library
[04/Feb/2002 15:58:02 01972] [info]  Init: Seeding PRNG with 136 bytes of 
entropy
[04/Feb/2002 15:58:02 01972] [info]  Init: Configuring temporary RSA 
private keys (512/1024 bits)
[04/Feb/2002 15:58:02 01972] [info]  Init: Configuring temporary DH 
parameters (512/1024 bits)
[04/Feb/2002 15:58:02 01972] [info]  Init: Initializing (virtual) servers 
for SSL

There is nothing unusual before this in the logs other than a large (10+) 
number of these entries, all with the same timestamp.

[04/Feb/2002 15:58:00 01596] [info]  Subsequent (No.2) HTTPS request 
received for child 1 (server <SERVER>)
[04/Feb/2002 15:58:00 01596] [info]  Subsequent (No.2) HTTPS request 
received for child 2 (server <SERVER>)
[04/Feb/2002 15:58:00 01596] [info]  Subsequent (No.3) HTTPS request 
received for child 1 (server <SERVER>)
[04/Feb/2002 15:58:00 01596] [info]  Subsequent (No.3) HTTPS request 
received for child 2 (server <SERVER>)

I am not sure if this is a tomcat, mod_jk, or mod_ssl error. Any pointers 
to information, ideas, or help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance,

Mario-
