Hi Ranier Caravan,

Looks like this problem didn't go away.

To get symbols I had to first:

sudo debuginfo-install httpd

Then

sudo gdb -p PID

Several hundred apache forks are present so I selected random one....

I am beyond my knowledge limit at this point.

The server nike.pbtech contains an R application running on internal
server.  It's reached through this Apace proxy.

I have a few questions.

1) How do we tell the apache fork's hung hung?
2) How can I check all forks at once?  Attaching to parent does not work.
3) When trying other Apache forks I get hung gdb at line "attaching to
process."  Any way to avoid?
