Just a long shot but is the regression in 2.0.47 as well? I've been getting defunct processes with nothing being served and the clincher is that all my HTML pages are served via CGI/suexec. I wrote this to Apache User a couple of days ago: http://lists.debian.org/debian-apache/2003/debian-apache-200307/msg00065.html http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=202124 Thom noted that it may be related to this bug report: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?archive=no&bug=202094 Regards, Adam
