Hi,
Today I found my web-server does not respond to http-requests.
All other services kept running, only apache (2.2.16) just died.
For the first time, in nearly year...
In /var/log/apache2/error_log I have found these messages:
----------------------------------------------
*** about 1 hour since the last normal message, then suddenly ***
[Tue Feb 15 10:54:59 2011] [alert] (11)Resource temporarily unavailable:
setuid: unable to change to uid: 81
*** 6 times the same message ***
[Tue Feb 15 10:54:59 2011] [alert] Child 1903 returned a Fatal error...
Apache is exiting!
[Tue Feb 15 10:54:59 2011] [emerg] (43)Identifier removed: couldn't grab
the accept mutex
*** 20 times the same message ***

the accept mutex

[Tue Feb 15 10:55:13 2011] [emerg] (22)Invalid argument: couldn't grab
the accept mutex
*** about 50 times the same message ***
----------------------------------------------
The last message from /var/log/apache2/access_log is:
72.14.202.80 - - [15/Feb/2011:10:54:58 +0000] "GET
/sites/all/themes/Chockolade6b/images/Header.jpg HTTP/1.1" 200 64267
74.125.152.84 - - [15/Feb/2011:10:54:59 +0000] "GET
/sites/all/themes/Chockolade6b/images/Header.jpg HTTP/1.1" 200 64267
Apart from that, nothing. No other traces. Content of my website
is there, nothing has been changed (as far as I can say). I simply
restarted apache, and it is running again (but how long before it
crashes again?)...
Obviously, I'd like to know what happened exactly, and how I could
prevent it happen again in the future. Any help would be greatly
appreciated...
