CGI processes left defunct/zombie under 2.0.47





------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED]  2003-11-07 22:24 -------
I wasn't able to recreate any zombies in this scenario

Apache parent
  -> Apache child process
        -> CGI script
             -> some command invoked by the CGI

when the CGI script exited without reaping status from its child.  (just the way
Unix works I guess)

If you set MaxRequestsPerChild relatively low, won't that take care of zombies?

Another VERY stray thought is to write a simple module that calls waitpid(-1,,)
to try to reap status from any stray child process remaining for any reason. 
Since this is prefork, it shouldn't interfere with any other requests.
