If it is a glibc issue then there's nothing we can do about it. I forget
if I asked you to give me strace data... with strace data I can conclude
if it's glibc or not. I tried building glibc on the weekend and I wasn't
able to reproduce the problem you're having. Mind you, I built 2.0.7-pre1
to ensure I had the latest bug fixes. You should be running at least
2.0.6 btw, there's a redhat update rpm.
Incidentally, how are you starting httpd? Where do you redirect stderr
when you do that?
To get the strace stuff try something like this:
- cp httpd.conf test.conf
- edit test.conf:
Port 8080
StartServers 1
MinSpareServers 1
MaxSpareServers 2
Then run ./httpd -f /path/to/test.conf and ensure the bug still happens.
Then run strace -ff -o trace.out ./httpd -f /path/to/test.conf and reproduce
the bug. Then you may have to kill -9 the httpd and all its children
because of a deadlock issue with strace. Don't kill strace... just keep
killing
children of strace until strace exits cleanly (use pstree -lp to find the
children).
Then gzip the output and mail it to me.
