Package: apache2 Version: 2.4.10-10+deb8u12 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,
I am finding some Apache processes stuck in a gracefully finishing state after an Apache reload. The only way to clear these processes down is to restart Apache or killing the individual processes. The way these processes are being left the stuck thread 100% CPU and eventually crashing the server. I have seen these hung processes stay running for over 12 hours before I manually kill them. This seems to only be when the reload catches a large request to my website. Unfortunately I have been unsuccessful to replicate this issue anywhere outside of my production environment. We are using Apache to process PHP behind a NGINX proxy. -- Package-specific info: -- System Information: Debian Release: 8.10 APT prefers oldstable APT policy: (500, 'oldstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 3.16.0-4-amd64 (SMP w/8 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages apache2 depends on: ii apache2-bin 2.4.10-10+deb8u12 ii apache2-data 2.4.10-10+deb8u12 ii apache2-utils 2.4.10-10+deb8u12 ii dpkg 1.17.27 ii lsb-base 4.1+Debian13+nmu1 ii mime-support 3.58 ii perl 5.20.2-3+deb8u9 ii procps 2:3.3.9-9 Versions of packages apache2 recommends: ii ssl-cert 1.0.35 Versions of packages apache2 suggests: pn apache2-doc <none> pn apache2-suexec-pristine | apache2-suexec-custom <none> ii w3m [www-browser] 0.5.3-19+deb8u2 Versions of packages apache2-bin depends on: ii libapr1 1.5.1-3 ii libaprutil1 1.5.4-1 ii libaprutil1-dbd-sqlite3 1.5.4-1 ii libaprutil1-ldap 1.5.4-1 ii libc6 2.19-18+deb8u10 ii libldap-2.4-2 2.4.40+dfsg-1+deb8u3 ii liblua5.1-0 5.1.5-7.1 ii libpcre3 2:8.35-3.3+deb8u4 ii libssl1.0.0 1.0.1t-1+deb8u8 ii libxml2 2.9.1+dfsg1-5+deb8u6 ii perl 5.20.2-3+deb8u9 ii zlib1g 1:1.2.8.dfsg-2+b1 Versions of packages apache2-bin suggests: pn apache2-doc <none> pn apache2-suexec-pristine | apache2-suexec-custom <none> ii w3m [www-browser] 0.5.3-19+deb8u2 Versions of packages apache2 is related to: ii apache2 2.4.10-10+deb8u12 ii apache2-bin 2.4.10-10+deb8u12 -- Configuration Files: /etc/apache2/mods-available/mpm_prefork.conf changed: <IfModule mpm_prefork_module> StartServers 5 MinSpareServers 5 MaxSpareServers 10 MaxRequestWorkers 110 MaxConnectionsPerChild 30000 GracefulShutdownTimeout 60 </IfModule> /etc/apache2/mods-available/mpm_worker.conf changed: <IfModule mpm_worker_module> StartServers 2 MinSpareThreads 25 MaxSpareThreads 75 ThreadLimit 64 ThreadsPerChild 25 MaxRequestWorkers 300 MaxConnectionsPerChild 0 </IfModule> /etc/apache2/mods-available/status.conf changed: <IfModule mod_status.c> # Allow server status reports generated by mod_status, # with the URL of http://servername/server-status # Uncomment and change the "192.0.2.0/24" to allow access from other hosts. <Location /server-status> SetHandler server-status Require local #Require ip 192.0.2.0/24 </Location> # Keep track of extended status information for each request ExtendedStatus On # Determine if mod_status displays the first 63 characters of a request or # the last 63, assuming the request itself is greater than 63 chars. # Default: Off #SeeRequestTail On SeeRequestTail On <IfModule mod_proxy.c> # Show Proxy LoadBalancer status in mod_status ProxyStatus On </IfModule> </IfModule> /etc/apache2/ports.conf changed: NameVirtualHost *:81 Listen 81 -- no debconf information
