Looks like I did not respond to the right thread so I paste my response below. If you got it twice my apologies.
There seems to be no difference in configuration file except for some comments: ``` diff -Bbde /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf.roc ky 8a # See the httpd.conf(5) man page for more information on this configuration, # and httpd.service(8) on using and configuring the httpd service. # . ``` I will paste complete Rocky config for completeness at the end of this message. EnableMMAP and EnableSendfile are set to on, differently to defaults specified in comments. This is default system configuration present on both Rocky 8 and Centos 7. I removed httpd and all config files and installed it again to make sure. ``` # Defaults if commented: EnableMMAP On, EnableSendfile Off # #EnableMMAP off EnableSendfile on ``` Both systems return: ``` ulimit -n 1024 ``` There is no custom config for httpd: ``` stat /etc/systemd/system/httpd.service.d stat: cannot stat ‘/etc/systemd/system/httpd.service.d’: No such file or directory ``` systemd itself seems to not apply any limit on both systems: ``` grep LimitNOFILE /etc/systemd/system.conf #DefaultLimitNOFILE= ``` After enabling trace there is a lot of messenges about too many open connections and killing keepalive connections.

It contains the # configuration directives that give the server its instructions. # See <URL:http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/> for detailed information. # In particular, see # <URL:http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/mod/directives.html> # for a discussion of each configuration directive. # # See the httpd.conf(5) man page for more information on this configuration, # and httpd.service(8) on using and configuring the httpd service. # # Do NOT simply read the instructions in here without understanding # what they do. They're here only as hints or reminders. If you are unsure # consult the online docs. You have been warned. # # Configuration and logfile names: If the filenames you specify for many # of the server's control files begin with "/" (or "drive:/" for Win32), the # server will use that explicit path. If the filenames do *not* begin # with "/", the value of ServerRoot is prepended -- so 'log/access_log' # with ServerRoot set to '/www' will be interpreted by the # server as '/www/log/access_log', where as '/log/access_log' will be # interpreted as '/log/access_log'. # # ServerRoot: The top of the directory tree under which the server's # configuration, error, and log files are kept. # # Do not add a slash at the end of the directory path. If you point # ServerRoot at a non-local disk, be sure to specify a local disk on the # Mutex directive, if file-based mutexes are used. If you wish to share the # same ServerRoot for multiple httpd daemons, you will need to change at # least PidFile. # ServerRoot "/etc/httpd" # # Listen: Allows you to bind Apache to specific IP addresses and/or # ports, instead of the default.
