Back Hi folks,
I've discovered this morning that one of my web servers was unresponsive. I check with a 'ps -ef' and discovered I had only one httpd process (the parent, running as root). So, I restarted Apache with 'service httpd restart' and see the same behavior - parent is started with no children. The access.log and error.log appear normal.
Nothing has changed on this server in months and I can confirm via the previous access logs that it was responsive a couple days ago.
If I use 'strace' to attach to the running parent process I see this:
times(NULL) = -2088278351 times(NULL) = -2088278351 times(NULL) = -2088278351 times(NULL) = -2088278351 times(NULL) = -2088278351 times(NULL) = -2088278351 times(NULL) = -2088278351 times(NULL) = -2088278351 times(NULL) = -2088278351 times(NULL) = -2088278351 times(NULL) = -2088278351 times(NULL) = -2088278351
The number is decrementing as it goes by (about once per second, which probably makes sense).
I've tried using the default httpd.conf that comes with the package, but I see the same behavior.
In addition, I updated to httpd-2 (See http://tpd-2.ora-code.com).0.46-56.ent.i386.rpm and mod_ssl-2 (See http://ssl-2.ora-code.com).0.46-56.ent.i386.rpm (from 2.0.46-54.ent) and still no change in behavior.
If anyone has ideas I would appreciate it as this server has about 10 websites it serves that are currently (obviously) out of the water.
Thanks,
Kevin
