(I posted this last week, but received a "message bounced" reply. It appears now that the list is back up, so I'm trying again.)
Environment: Apache 1.3.20, mod_ssl 2.8.4_1.3.20, OpenSSL-0.9.6b, Windows NT 4.0 SP6 I've encountered EXACTLY the same crashing behavior described by Josef Goebel in bug report 569 (dated 23-May). Since the bug is still marked as "Open", I thought I'd check on the current status. It seems like a critical issue to me, as my Apache only runs for a minute or two before crashing. Here's the dump from Apache error log: [Wed Nov 21 07:35:11 2001] [info] master_main: Child processed exited (due to MaxRequestsPerChild?). Restarting the child process. [Wed Nov 21 07:35:16 2001] [crit] (32)The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process: Parent: Not able to create the child process. [Wed Nov 21 07:35:16 2001] [error] (2)No such file or directory: master_main: create child process failed. Exiting. [Wed Nov 21 07:35:16 2001] [info] removed PID file z:/webserver/logs/httpd.pid (pid=376) I plan to apply Josef's patch/workaround, as he's indicated offline that it has worked well for him, but I'm extremely curious why this issue hasn't already been addressed. How is anyone using mod_ssl if Apache won't stay alive? Thanks for any information you can provide.
