I have some additional information re #3455 which may be useful. I have
found the following work-around is effective. It may form the basis for
a full solution, I don't know.
In main/http_protocol.c change lines 2365 onwards from
case HTTP_SERVICE_UNAVAILABLE:
ap_bputs("The server is temporarily unable to service your\n"
"request due to maintenance downtime or capacity\n"
"problems. Please try again later.\n", fd);
break;
to
case HTTP_SERVICE_UNAVAILABLE:
ap_bvputs(fd, "The server is temporarily unable to service
your\n"
"request due to maintenance downtime or capacity\n"
"problems. Please try again later.\n<P>\n"
"If the problem persists, "
"please contact the server administrator,\n ",
ap_escape_html(r->pool, r->server->server_admin),
" for assistance.<P>\n", NULL);
if ((error_notes = ap_table_get(r->notes, "error-notes")) !=
NULL) {
ap_bvputs(fd, error_notes, "<P>\n", NULL);
}
break;
This is in addition to the other change. In mod_proxy, proxy_util.c
change line 843 ("return HTTP_INTERNAL_SERVER_ERROR")
to "return HTTP_SERVICE_UNAVAILABLE"
