Hi Jeff, Thanks for your reply. I had added only the first 8 modules in httpd.conf. Remaining modules were added later only when I started facing this problem. Reducing the number of modules back to 8 does not make any difference with respect to this issue. With these 8 modules httpd worked fine with port 80. The problem started when I tried adding additional ports. Adding more ports is need of the hour. I can not escape it. I have run strace with "follow the fork" option (rather than single process). There are only 4 processess to follow. strace output did not help. It does not indicate any error condition as such. I can make it run as a single process by running httpd with -X option in foreground. But I am not sure whether that is going to help. Anyway, I will try that.
