Hi Goran,
In almost Unix flavors, Apache starts a root
control program that starts n nobody child process to handle
requests. Is a normal behavior when a child dies and Apache control
program launch a new child to replace it. Indeed in Apache-Unix
world, each child have its lifetime stipulated by its amount of
requests.
Apache on Windows have no lifetime defined for a
child. Yes, there is only a child with threads to handle requests, but if
this child dies for some reason, Apache will replace it with new
one. Consider this behaviour before your tasks.

Subject: Apache on windows - persistent
database connections
Greetings
I have read that Apache uses multi processing(one
master process with many child processes). My problem was that i needed to
create only ONE persistent database connection to SQL server(but of
course in Apache every child process would create its own persistent
connection).
Recently i have again read the docs and i noticed
the mpm_winnt (This Multi-Processing Module is optimized for
Windows NT):
-----------
This Multi-Processing Module (MPM) is the default for the Windows NT
operating systems. It uses a single control process which launches a single
child process which in turn creates threads to handle requests
------------
So my question is if this is what im searching for? Will this module work
the way that it creates only one persistent database connection?
Thanks and best regards
Goran
