http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=41815 Summary: Apache won't start if log file too big Product: Apache httpd-1.3 Version: HEAD Platform: Other OS/Version: Linux Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: core AssignedTo: [email protected] ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED] I noticed one of my webservers which has been running for months without a single login suddenly stopped responding, yet all other services except Apache were fine. I logged in, found no Apache processes, so I tried to start it. Apache returned the error that Maxclients was higher than the Hardlimit, yet I had not recompiled for atleast six months now, and the server was running perfectly. I dropped the limit in httpd.conf and tried to start it again. This time I received absolutely no error messages, but no processes came up. I then noticed this: [EMAIL PROTECTED] logs]# ls -al total 2099564 drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Dec 2 03:22 . drwxr-xr-x 13 root root 4096 Nov 23 07:18 .. -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 331776 Mar 6 18:26 access_log -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 2147483647 Mar 7 06:16 error_log -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 5 Feb 13 01:16 httpd.pid I rm'd the error_log, tried to start Apache and it came up with no prob. As we all know 2,147,483,647 is the magic int32 number. I'm surprised a long wasn't used, but anyway. -- Configure bugmail: http://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug, or are watching the assignee. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
