Hi All,
Just upgraded apache to 2.0.40-11-9 and when I restarted it..
I had this in the logs
[Fri Dec 19 16:16:07 2003] [crit] (17)File exists: unable to create
scoreboard (name-based shared memory failure)
something about the /var/run/httpd/httpd.scoreboard file
This is what is stated in httpd.conf
#
# ScoreBoardFile: File used to store internal server process information.
# If unspecified (the default), the scoreboard will be stored in an
# anonymous shared memory segment, and will be unavailable to third-party
# applications.
# If specified, ensure that no two invocations of Apache share the same
# scoreboard file. The scoreboard file MUST BE STORED ON A LOCAL DISK.
#
#ScoreBoardFile "/var/run/httpd.scoreboard "
I tried putting
ScoreBoardFile "/var/run/httpd.scoreboard.new "
(which worked previously) rm -rf /var/run/httpd.*
and re-starting httpd still does not work.
It only worked after I commented it out..
So.. Should I leave it commented or _un_commented???
Cheers, .^.
