general/2825: servers die to open slots
>Number: 2825
>Category: general
>Synopsis: servers die to open slots
>Confidential: no
>Severity: serious
>Priority: medium
>Responsible: apache

>Class: sw-bug

apache
>Release: 1.3.0
>Environment:
running Redhat Linux 5.0 compiled with gcc
>Description:
the system seems to run normally, except that the servers
gradually die off, turning from "waiting for connection"
to "open slot" on the scoreboard. once they stop
listening they don't appear to wake up again, except that
a graceful restart resets them to the full number.
the parameters of the httpd.conf are:
Timeout 100
KeepAlive On
KeepAliveTimeout 15
MinSpareServers 20
MaxSpareServers 200
StartServers 50
MaxClients 500 (compiled with HARD_SERVER_LIMIT=512)
MaxRequestsPerChild 30
this is a Pentium II 233 Mhz with 256 MB of ram. I set the
server parameters high because we are expecting alot of
traffic. the current vmstat (no servers dead) is
procs memory swap io system cpu
r b w swpd free buff cache si so bi bo in cs us sy id
0 0 0 0 73740 122340 27020 0 0 3 0 109 12 0 0 100
i suppose i can watch constantly and do graceful restarts all day
long, but is there something basically wrong here i'm doing.
thank you for your time in advance
