Hi, I'd like to make a suggestion regarding the docs on PerlFreshRestart. First of all, *THANKS* for all those who are making these available. I'd still be searching the net for an answer to my segfaults if it weren't for these resources.
Now, to perhaps save the next poor programmer/sys-admin from the troubles I've had, I'd suggest that the Troubleshooting FAQ regarding the PerlFreshRestart section <http://perl.apache.org/docs/1.0/guide/troubleshooting.html#Evil_things_might_happen_when_using_PerlFreshRestart> include something along the following lines (mainly to improve the chances of search engines indexing for the terms I was using to do my search; I had no clue the cause was the PerlFreshRestart, or even mod_perl for that matter): If you are having problems doing a graceful restart of the Apache server (such as the server process dying), turning off the PerlFreshRestart option may fix your problem. Some users have seen no problems starting the server, no errors written to the logs, but no server running after a restart. Granted, I'm not 100% sure this is the solution but my initial tests seem to show that it has fixed my graceful restart problem. I am going to set the server to restart hourly for the next couple of days. If I find that changing the PerlFreshRestart option does not fix my problem, I'll let you know. Finally, I want to point out that the definition of PerlFreshRestart <http://perl.apache.org/docs/1.0/guide/config.html#PerlFreshRestart> includes an erroneous setting (at least with Apache 1.3.27). The following directive: PerlFreshRestart No produces an error when I run it with apachectl configtest. It says the settings should be On or Off.
