Hello users, I have apache 2.2.14-r1/events MPM running on Gentoo with the 2.6.31 linux kernel
The problem starts as usually - from time to time I have many threads in W state, which won't leave the state. The threads engaged in writing have an IP address to where Apache supposedly transmits the requests. If I #netstat -nt | grep "IP engaged in the W" I would have an empty reply, no connection to IP present. Yet the server-status insists that threads are engaged in writing. No load is generated but the slots are busy, the memory is used etc. The question is - could someone with a deep apache understanding shed some light on how it could possibly happen. Yes, this server sometimes is attacked, that true. I just don't see how it could write to a closed socket and stay there not knowing that the connection was closed. Yes, I have custom TCP settings to close connections faster. But what is idea behind it? How could system know about a closed connection and Apache not? Thanks in advance. -- Best regards, Igor mailto:sp...@online.ru --------------------------------------------------------------------- The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.
