Well, Hardy, so: apache2-mpm-worker 2.2.8-1ubuntu0.3 logrotate 3.7.1-3 Kernel 2.6.24-19-server > Do you have any steps you can take to reproduce this action? Actually, sorry, I've just noticed that the default logrotate file uses 'reload' rather than 'restart', which is great but I still think 'restart' should work better for a busy server. The fundamental problem seems to be that it tries to shut down gracefully, but that takes too long for a busy server. Rather than then shutting down hard (e.g. kill -9), it just gives up, and immediately tries to start again (which of course fails). Anyway, to reproduce: run a very busy webserver and run '/etc/init.d/apache2 restart'. -- James ** Summary changed: - apache doesn't come back up after weekly logrotate restart + /etc/init.d/apache2 restart fails on busy webservers -- /etc/init.d/apache2 restart fails on busy webservers https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/270899 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
