Bug#398223: Acknowledgement (apache2: [notice] caught SIGTERM, shutting down)
After enduring seven consecutive Sunday morning Apache2 shutdowns (ie. this is REALLY reproducible on my end) I commented out the following in my one SSL-enabled virtual host: NameVirtualHost *:443 VirtualHost *:443 DocumentRoot /var/www/langex ServerName www.langex.net ServerAlias server langex.net *.langex.net CustomLog /var/log/apache2/access.log combined # SSLEngine on # SSLCertificateFile /etc/apache2/ssl/langex.self.crt # SSLCertificateKeyFile /etc/apache2/ssl/langex.net.key /VirtualHost No more spontaneous shutdowns. In other words, with the SSL stuff above turned on, Apache2 shuts down every Sunday morning. With it commented out as above, I have now gotten through two Sundays without a shutdown. Sure looks like SSL has something to do with this, at least tangentially. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Hmm, apache2 invokes logrotate weeky, so maybe there's a bug in the
logrotate script. I'd change /etc/logrotate/apache2 to:
/var/log/apache2/*.log {
weekly
missingok
rotate 52
compress
delaycompress
notifempty
create 640 root adm
sharedscripts
postrotate
if [ -f /var/run/apache2.pid ]; then
echo --- `date` /var/log/apache2/logrotate
/etc/init.d/apache2 restart
/var/log/apache2/logrotate 21
fi
endscript
}
and see what happens.

As you probably know, there have been questions raised by the FSF about compatibility between the GPL and the Apache License 2.0, used by apr-util. The ASF believes there is no problem. MySQL A.B. has sidestepped the question by providing a GPL compatibility exemption covering many such cases. As your code is intended for use with apr-util, I assume you see no license compatibility problem either. Can I get a quick confirmation of this from you as copyright holders of the GPL work? Your reply will go into our public copyright notice file for apr-util. Thanks, Peter, for the Debian Apache maintainers Peter, I'm aware of the Debian issue. A couple of weeks ago I posted to your bugs database in an effort to resolve this.

It's documented in my blog, at http://bahumbug.wordpress.com/2006/12/18/apacheaprmysql-packaging/ Ah, indeed you did.

If you prefer, you may instead invoke MySQL's exception and include it in an APR-UTIL package under the Apache License 2.0. So, to be sure I understand - even if you relicense apr_dbd_mysql.c as Apache License 2.0, the ASF will still not want to ship it due to its use of libmysqlclient? Regardless, I think relicensing apr_dbd_mysql.c as AL2.0 is probably the best solution, certainly that would make it easiest to explain the situation to an outsider. I'm satisfied with your email to declare your dual-license intent, but some people would be more convinced with an equivalent declaration in the source code itself. Does this look reasonable?

Talking through packaging issues
Hi, Exchanging email with you reminds me of another issue. Any Debian/Apache people planning to attend ApacheCon/EU in May, would you be interested in participating in a panel discussion on the subject of packaging Apache, and the support issues it raises? See http://bahumbug.wordpress.com/2006/12/05/apachecon-raising-the-support-issue/ This follows my provocative article at http://www.regdeveloper.co.uk/2006/11/04/apache_packages_support_vacuum/ and feedback summarised at http://bahumbug.wordpress.com/2006/11/06/the-support-vacuum-feedback/ -- Nick Kew Application Development with Apache - the Apache Modules Book http://www.apachetutor.org/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

Quoting Nick Kew [EMAIL PROTECTED]: [Cc: dev@apr.apache.org added. People with an interest in this - particularly Bojan - please speak up if you have any comments] I don't hold copyright here, so I cannot speak of a licence change. This is something only Nick can do. I would personally be thrilled to see this happen (although the driver still wouldn't be distributed by ASF) and I would make sure I bug Joe to build new APU with the driver included for all Fedora folks out there :-) -- Bojan -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.
