Re: Apache 2.0.54(Worker) installation on RHES not working(Zombie processes on startup)

2005-12-08 Thread Pau Garcia i Quiles

Quoting [EMAIL PROTECTED]:

I am using Apache 2.0.54 on RHEL3u5 with no problems. It's working as a
reverse-proxy with mod_disk_cache.

I did have problems with RHEL3u5's Apache2 package, though. Caching did 
not work
(and yes, DSOs were loaded), so I had to install from sources. I can't 
remember

now, but I think RHEL3u5 comes with Apache 2.0.46 + security patches up to
2.0.53. That's the version I was having problems with.



Hi,

I am trying to install Apache 2.0.54 on RedHat enterprise edition, 
though the Installation is a succes, starting of Apache results in 
lots of zombie processes with no active process.



Machine Information:

uname -a
   Linux ex07 2.4.21-37.EL #1 Wed Sep 7 13:35:21 EDT 2005 i686 i686 
i386 GNU/Linux

more /etc/issue
   Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS release 3 (Taro Update 6)
gcc -v
   gcc version 3.2.3 20030502 (Red Hat Linux 3.2.3-20)

Installation steps:
a)   ./configure \
--prefix=/home/shiva/apache2 \
--with-mpm=worker \
--enable-modules=most \
--enable-mods-shared=all

b) make
c) make install

Install is a success.
on starting the server using apachectl
I was able to compile and execute the same with success of sun solaris
Is there some

[EMAIL PROTECTED] logs]$ ../bin/apachectl start

shiva 8023  8021  0 11:01 ?00:00:00 
/home/shiva/apache2/bin/httpd -k start


I was able to compile and execute the same with success of sun solaris.
But in case of RedHatES all the processes die.
Is there some installation step/param which is incorrect or not mentioned?

Any kind of clue would be of great help to me.
Thanks in advance.

Re: using proxy/cache for apache mirrors

2005-12-06 Thread Pau Garcia i Quiles

Quoting Colm MacCarthaigh <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:


* It defeats a huge part of the point of having a mirroring
 system in the first place. Mirroring isn't just a way of
  decreasing bandwidth usage on the primary, it's also a means
  of building content resilience. When www.apache.org goes down, users
 want their mirror to work. And worst of all, in the case of
  infrequently used mirrors, this is exactly when they'll
  suddenly get a lot of queries - all of which will end up in IOWAIT
  land, with a boat-load of back-end TCP connections, and no
  content served. That really sucks, for both them and their
  users.


A few months ago I developed a patch for 2.0.54 that added a new directive
(CacheGatewayUnreachable) for this not to happen.

When CacheGatewayUnreachable was set to true, Apache would show the latest
cached version of the resource when the gateway is unreachable. When
CacheGatewayUnreachable was set to false, Apache would show the same error it
currently shows.

I have not tested/ported it to 2.2.0, though. If I find some time, I will.




Re: [VOTE] 2.1.10 as GA

2005-11-28 Thread Pau Garcia i Quiles

Quoting Rich Bowen <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:

I am not an Apache developer, but I think nobody said anything about 
caching and

I am having problems using 2.1.10 as a caching proxy.

I took a configuration that is working fine on 2.0 (serving a million
pages/hour) and slightly modified it (removed CacheGcInterval and CacheSize)
and now it is not caching at all. An apachectl configtest returns OK and the
same configuration works fine on 2.0.54 and 2.0.55.

I will be performing further testing on the next days. Maybe it's my
configuration. Maybe not.

tested on MacOSX (very little load, to be fair), on SuSE 9.1 Linux and
on Slackware something or other.
