ID: 45254 Comment by: fredric at drombolaget dot se Reported By: yurtesen at ispro dot net Status: No Feedback Bug Type: CGI related Operating System: FreeBSD 6.3 PHP Version: 5.2.6 New Comment:
I have the exact same problem right now on our VPS. The VPS is running Ubuntu 8.04 64 bit on OpenVZ. The install of the software is from Ubuntu standard repositories. The software is: Server: Apache/2.2.8 (Ubuntu) PHP/5.2.4-2ubuntu5.6 with Suhosin-Patch mod_ssl/2.2.8 OpenSSL/0.9.8g Occassionally a php-cgi process "hangs" or rather does absolutely nothing - but it does consume memory. As the number of processes approaches the 30:s the server starts dying from acute lack of memory. killall -9 php-cgi is still all that get's us out of this mess. Restarting apache doesn't even work as it seems to be waiting for the php processes to die.
