Package: apache-ssl Version: 1.3.33-3 Severity: important
Hello. I'm getting very strange behaviour out of my apache-ssl server. Without warning, I'm getting lines in /var/log/error.log like this: EOF in saferead after 0 bytes gcache: gcachecommon.c:108: ReadThing: Assertion `nRead == sizeof usLength' fail [Fri Apr 22 11:14:48 2005] [notice] child pid 1588 exit signal Aborted (6) [Fri Apr 22 11:14:48 2005] [warn] long lost child came home! (pid 1588) Failed to connect to socket: /var/run/gcache_port connect: Connection refused apache-ssl: gcacheclient.c:118: OpenServer: Assertion `!"couldn't connect to socFailed to connect to socket: /var/run/gcache_port connect: Connection refused Of course, once the apache-ssl server starts giving the Assertion errors, it keeps getting them until I intervene. This means that my SSL pages are all busted. I have the following in my /etc/apache-ssl/httpd.conf: SSLCacheServerPath /usr/lib/apache-ssl/gcache SSLCacheServerPort /var/run/gcache_port Looking at gcachecommon.c in the apache-ssl patches for apache, it looks like the EOF in saferead error is generated by gcache itself, because it got a return of 0 from it's read() of /var/run/gcache_port. Then that makes the ReadThing assert fail, and so gcache bails. Without gcache running, apache-ssl can't do whatever it's supposed to do with gcache and so the SSL serving pukes. I don't know much more than this. In particular, I have no clue what could be making gcache get EOF on that file. Any help that can be given will be greatly appreciated.
