Hi, I have the same problem, but it seg fault only if I have more than 2 virtual host, it's still ok with 2! :
### My apache is crashing (segmentation fault) when I try starting it, it's the first time it's doing that on me, and I tried everything that came into my mind. I have : Server version: Apache/1.3.29 (Debian GNU/Linux) Server built: Dec 17 2003 15:54:05 On my debian testing (2.4.22 kernel) box Symptom: apache -X returns: Processing config directory: /etc/apache/conf.d and then segmentation fault. The log doesn't report anything, except that apache was probably not exited nicely (you bet...). Context: It happens only when I have MORE than 2 virtual hosts configured (just any 2 of my 7 virtual hosts). and only when mod_php4 is loaded... And I don't need to make a request for the server to crash. I would appreciate any suggestion, I really find it frustrating to have such a great server limited to only 2 virtual on my server... I would be happy to send more information if needed. Thanks for you help!

To add to the strangeness, starting without the virtual hosts then reloading seems to work fine (also 'apachectlt configtest' shows up asOK). I don't know how to get any verbosity out of apache other than this: europa:/home/jeremy# /usr/sbin/apache -XSegmentation fault Strange is all I can say, though I'm guessing it's an upstream bug in1.3.29. -- System Information:Debian Release: testing/unstableArchitecture: i386 Kernel: Linux europa 2.4.23-xfs #2 Fri Dec 19 18:49:08 EST 2003 i686 Locale: LANG=en_AU, LC_CTYPE=en_AUVersions of packages apache depends on: ii apache-common 1.3.29-1 Support files for all Apache webse ii debconf 1.3.20 Debian configuration management sy ii dpkg 1.10.18 Package maintenance system for Deb ii libc6 2.3.2.ds1-10 GNU C Library: Shared libraries an ii libdb4.1 4.1.25-10 Berkeley v4.1 Database Libraries [ ii libexpat1 1.95.6-6 XML parsing C library - runtime li ii libmagic1 4.06-1 File type determination library us ii logrotate 3.6.5-2 Log rotation utility ii mime-support 3.23-1 MIME files 'mime.types' & 'mailcap ii perl [perl5] 5.8.0-18 Larry Wall's Practical Extraction -- debconf information excluded
