I have installed Apache 2.0.48 with enable-ssl option on Solaris 8. The server starts and works fine in non-ssl mode however on starting in ssl mode it gives the following exception: # ../bin/apachectl startssl [Thu Dec 04 16:27:04 2003] [crit] [Thu Dec 04 16:27:04 2003] file vhost.c, line 232, assertion "rv == APR_SUCCESS" failed Abort - core dumped
Here is the code that blew:
else if (strcasecmp(host, "_default_") == 0
|| strcmp(host, "255.255.255.255") == 0) {
rv = apr_sockaddr_info_get(&my_addr, "255.255.255.255", APR_INET, port, 0, p);
ap_assert(rv == APR_SUCCESS); /* must be bug or out of storage */The expected cause is a resolver bug. If you're on a real old level of Solaris (w.r.t. patches), upgrading to the current recommended patch set will hopefully fix this.
Alternatively, try to avoid coding _default_ or "255.255.255.255".
Another idea: convince APR that it has no working getaddrinfo. Perhaps you can try this patch and run buildconf, configure, make and see if it gets better?

I don't know why piped_log_spawn() was displayed.
