Hello,
I have two CentOS 5.5 boxes. What happens is that httpd goes up to 100%
CPU load, and is unable to serve any pages. I have tried to track this
down but with no success. I have had a problem since February, that
occurs on Sundays - but at different clock hours. I have of course
checked if there are cronjobs running just Sundays, but none.
It first seemed like there was logrotate that caused this, so I forced a
rotate on another day, but nothing changed. I also reset the permissions
of all the log files. It was suggested to me that "io wait" on the
system was high, but `sar` rejected that statement.
I caught the server that locked up, this Sunday, and tried to `strace`
it. It gave me this, looping:
poll([{fd=45, events=POLLIN}], 1, 3000) = 1 ([{fd=45, revents=POLLHUP}])
read(45, "", 12840)
A normal `service httpd restart` fails, with "adress in use" and "Unable
to open log files".
Here is some additional info:
Server version: Apache/2.2.3

Any help is greatly appreciated, as I am clueless. Thanks!
