[users@httpd] Browser access to Apache on W2k hangs.
I have installed the binary Apache 2.0.47 on a Win2KPro machine named
"Private" (192.163.0.1) on a local private TCP/IP network. I specified
"Private" as both the domain and server name. I can ping both "Private" and
"localhost". No other server is running and netstat shows no listeners on port
80 before Apache is started. The Windows services monitor and the Apache
monitor shows that the Apache service is up-and-running.
When I try to access Apache with any browser from the same machine using the
address "http://Private/" or "http://localhost/", the page never loads and the
browser is forever stuck in the "loading" state for that page. This doesn't
actually hang the browser, as it can load other pages, but it will never
finish loading the Apache page nor does it display any error or timeout message.
If I stop Apache and start IIS, things work fine. Neither the error log nor
the access log have any error messages. The access log remains blank, and the
error log only has the normal stop and start messages. There are no Apache
entries in the Windows event logs.
Does anyone have any idea what is going on, why I never get an error message
on either the server or client side, and what tool I can use to find out why
the page is never sent? It seems I connect just fine (netstat shows the TCP
connection to port 80), but that no data is being sent. However, I never get a
timeout.
Any assistance provided would be greatly appreciated.
Some related httpd.conf entries:
ServerRoot "C:/Program Files/Apache Group/Apache2"
Listen 80
ServerName Private:80
The error.log:
[Sat Oct 18 16:09:34 2003] [notice] Parent: Received shutdown signal --

Yes I did test it, as stated in the original message. To clarify, I've tried
to access the server with "Private", "192.168.0.1", "localhost", and
"127.0.0.1", and none of them return a page or an error. Unlike an invalid
address which returns a timeout error when it tries to connect, these
addresses connect (I see it in netstat) and wait forever for data. I've proved
the validity of the DNS lookups and the underlying protocol stack by pinging
and temporarily enabling IIS.
Telnet with any the above on port 80 does not return anything after the GET is
sent, and telnet then does not respond to a ctrl-c and the console window has
to be closed.
What is frustrating is that I don't get a blessed log entry in either the
access or error logs.

Okay, you don't test it. Since you have a problem, there must be
someting wrong here. Different tests may disclose the problem. Would you
like to try from command window the command "telnet 127.0.0.1 80", then
"GET / HTTP/1.1" followed by two Enters?

As I've already said, "localhost" pings just fine, here are no other servers,
like IIS, running, and netstat shows no listeners on port 80 prior to the
installation of apache.

Have you tried http://127.0.0.1? Or to make sure there is no conflicts
with IIS, can you change port number from 80 to something else, say 8100.

Yes, perhaps the list was misleading. Even though it, of course, starts at
the top of the while(), I didn't think that it "hits" [1] (gets context) in
the second iteration, right?

I guess it doesn't really matter, but I meant the actual value it held, but
nevermind.

The AcceptEx() call is only in the while(!shutdown_in_progress) loop. The
while(1) loop is after the AcceptEx() error handling if-blocks and implements
the context overlapped event wait, which I stated no thread ever reaches.

Bingo, except 5 goes back to the the top of the while loop, before 1, via the
continue statement.

As I said, I compiled in some getsockopt() calls and found both sockets to be
valid (SO_ERROR == 0) and the listener to be listening (SO_ACCEPTCONN == TRUE).

That's where I intend to go next, I just wanted to get a proper development
environment for Apache up and running, and to see if anyone here had anything
to add.
Thanks for your help Robert. In the past, those few folk who have run into
this have apparently given up and gone to another machine, but I want to
identify this and solve it once and for all. Stuff like this keeps me up at
night, and I get cranky without a nap <grin>.

Which while() loop do you mean? There is while(!shutdown_in_progress) and
while(1). If the former, are they not hiting the Sleep(0) or Sleep(100)? If
I understand your description correctly, you do not ever get to the while(1)
loop.
Does it go something like this:
1. Hits if(!context), gets context and continues
2. Hits if(context->accept_socket == INVALID_SOCKET), and gets one
3. AcceptEx() fails.
4. rv == APR_FROM_OS_ERROR(WSANOTSOCK) is true, so it
close the socket, and set it to INVALID_SOCKET, and continues
5. Goto 2
That's pretty weird. It is probably not context->socket that is messed up,
but nlsd (the listening socket). Take a look in the debugger what value they
both have.

I have no quick access to a Windows 2k box, but I will try to remember to
check later.
I'm not sure it is appropriate to suggest, but you could perhaps write up a
summary of your findings and post to the developer list. A Windows developer
might be able to suggest what is causing this behaviour.

Posted by "Llelan D." <NO...@TheSnakePitDev.com>.
Ok, I've now got lots more concrete info.
I went through my services and disabled everything even remotely related to
networking or telephony and it made no difference. The IP is static. IPSEC is
not enabled. TCP/IP filtering is not enabled.
I compiled a debug version of Apache, verified it did the same thing, and ran
the second process in the debugger with breakpoints and some socket query code
in winnt_accept().
What is happening is that EVERY time any of the child threads does an
AcceptEx(), a WSAENOTSOCK is returned, the accept socket is closed, a debug
message is logged, and it continues the while loop. I never get to a single
wait-on-event call. This is happening continuously from process inception,
before any connection is attempted, and sucks up a huge amount of CPU time as
I have 250 threads in dead loops.
As a result, no thread can ever accept any connection on any listening socket,
even though the underlying TCP/IP stack shows the listener and connection in
netstat. When I set breakpoints anywhere after the WSAENOTSOCK error handler
for the AcceptEx() call, they are never fired. When I set a breakpoint in the
WSAENOTSOCK error handler, it is always fired.
I haven't been able to find any reference as to why or when AcceptEx() would
return a WSAENOTSOCK error, or which socket it means (listener or acceptor).
The socket query code I inserted proves that both the listener and accept
sockets are valid (SO_ERROR == 0), and that the listener is listening
(SO_ACCEPTCONN == TRUE).
Am verrrrrry confoozled.
Could anyone with a Win2KPro that correctly runs Apache 2.0.47 let me know if
you see the same "Not a socket" debug messages in your error log when you set
the directive "LogLevel debug" in your httpd.conf file? In mine they are
continuously logged from when Apache is started.
And, does anyone have any idea what the <blue word> is going on with
AcceptEx()? Since most others do not see the problem, it should be something
installed in or configured in my machine that Apache does not like, though I
have seen a couple of other descriptions of this same problem in a web search
that were never answered. I have a lot of different networking and
communication applications, and none of them have any problems when run
seperately or concurrently. This only happens with Apache. Unfortunately,
Apache won't run if the machine is booted in "Safe Mode With Networking".
Is there a list of Windows, Winsock, or TCP/IP configuration do's and don'ts
that might relate to this problem?

No links involved here, symbolic or otherwise. Cherry "c:/apache2" root.
Briddle??? What a great word for a time-tested and valuable technique.
Consider it vernaculated.

I had made some symbolic links, on linux that is, and it seemed to choke on

But I just removed the links and set a different serverroot and didn't

I got it. Since I don't know the Apache implementation structure, I didn't
know that winnt_accept() is a thread client under a second process. All I have
to do is attach a second IDE debugging session to that process and the
breakpoints work.
I got the BSCs too. Only the BuildBin, InstallBin, libapiconv_css_modules, and
libapiconv_ces_modules projects use makefiles. The rest use the project files,
so you can set the build and generate browser info flags as normal (for VS
that is). Setting libhttpd as the active project allows you to browse the
symbols for child.c and related modules.
It doesn't help my current problem, but at least now I'm cooking with LOX.
<grin> Thanks for the suggestion.

Hmm, not sure why. I've been able to set breakpoints just fine, although not
in that particular function. Sorry, cannot test right now. It might be
because some obscure threading stuff. Try in ap_read_request() in
server/protocol.c.

I know the function (winnt_accept in child.c), and it compiles in debug mode
just fine. It runs in the debugger, but refuses to break at any of my breakpoints.
Also, the debug mode in the makefiles does not create the BSC file. Does
anyone know how this is done?

Yes, it's possible. Compile Apache in debug mode and set a breakpoint in the
function where it reads the request (can't recall name/file, atm).

The message was changed from an error in 43 to a debug because AcceptEx can
return that error in a number of non-critical circumstances. Through the
current code is a kludge around it, it does not seem to relate to my current
problem.
Though McAfee VirusShield is installed, their firewall is not. I'm very
familiar with their firewall from when they originally purchased the code.
It's something I'll never install again (triple ech!). I've tried this with
McAfee disabled and I get the same thing.
This machine is a Win2kPro and has a statically defined local IP
(192.168.0.1), so it doesn't change with DHCP.

Different port, same problem. I can see the listener and the connections in
netstat, but the file is never sent. What I really do not understand is why
there are no access log entries if Apache accepted the connection.
I've never had a problem with any other network related software on this
machine: Internet browsers, FTP, NNTP, socket pipes, etc.
Isn't there a finer grain of debugging this thing to find out if Apache is
even seeing the connection? Can it be run in the VC debugger with breakpoints?
Can it be compiled with the BSC information?

Interesting. You could even made mistakes by cut-and-paste:)
Okay, I have given it a search on google by the string "An operation was
attempted on something that is not a socket". This particular message
can result from two situations:
1. Apache 2.0.43 with McAfee Firewall. Since you run with Apache 2.047,
so it is out of question. Because it is said the problem was fixed in
Apache 2.044.
2. If you have a IP address from Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol
(DHCP) server, and you have a third party product installed on your
computer and also run the commands 'ipconfig', 'release' and 'renew',
your windows sockets registry entries may be corrupted.
Based on your claim, you can still run IIS on port 80 fine, I can't say
your sockets registry entries totally corrupted, but, I still think it
is somehow related to your port/socket. Maybe you still can try to
change the port 80 to 8100 in your config to see what happend. In case
it is your socket registry entries corrupted, see the following link how
to repair it:

<sigh> Sorry, cut and pasted the wrong error message. It fails with WSAENOTSOCK.

The binary installer forces you to choose a domain. I chucked the stupid
thing, downloaded and compiled the source, and installed it directly. Using
the cherry httpd.conf file that uses "localhost", I get exactly the same problem.

As I stated in the original message, I can see the server in netstat listening
on the correct port with the correct address, and I can see the two TCP
connection entries for the browser. The connection IS being made and the
browser is forever waiting for the file to be transferred. I have tried all
the name and number options. By using ping and temporarily enabling IIS, I've
already proved the DNS and underlying netork systems.

By "forever" I definitely mean longer than an hour - and I hate coffee
<chuckle>. The browser only returns a "Document contains no data" error if I
stop the server.
Another curious wrinkle: I found the "LogLevel" directive and set it to
"debug". I get a continuous stream of this debug message.
[Sun Oct 19 01:21:44 2003] [debug] child.c(547): (OS 10038)An operation
was attempted on something that is not a socket. : winnt_accept: AcceptEx
failed due to early client disconnect. Reallocate the accept socket and try again.
Checking child.c, I see that the WinSock AcceptEx is failing with a WSAEINVAL
error (proved with a little code poking). I do not know if this is an actual
error condition, or just a kludgy clean-up from the file transmission.

Hi,
I have been running Apache on Windoze boxes for
a few years.
Can I suggest you first go back to square one.
Install your Apache with "dum" answers to any installer questions
and using your machine's basic name (DNS A entry).
You should then get the Apache default page.
Once this is working, you can tinker with config, one change at a time.
That way you narrow the field for your investigations
and can see which change breaks it.
One possible clue:- Have you got a DNS alias entry for "private"?
It looks like you have if you can ping it.
Have you tried asking your browser to get
http://192.163.0.1 or http://127.0.0.1?
With the default config, this should work without DNS.
You also need correct settings for DocumentRoot and
directory access settings. The default config. gives this to you
for Apache's default page.
Depending on the exact nature of a problem,
some browsers can hang on for several minutes before giving up.
If you go and have a coffee, you might find a message giving some clue.
At least you will then see whether the server has responded
or the browser has given up in desperation.
Hope that helps
