I too am seeing this bug on Apache 2.2.9 with PHP 5.2.6 using MPM Prefork. In a web crawler application that I have written it continually hangs up max clients. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2009-04-06 21:12:29] [email protected] What MPM did you use with Apache2? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2009-03-25 16:11:16] funky2step at gmail dot com We fixed this in the end by ditching apache2 and running php5 with apache 1.3.41 The problem has not occurred in the month or so since implementing it and considering it used to happen at least once per day, I think this is a decent solution. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2009-03-13 14:23:01] mibrahim at mibrahim dot net Same exact problem. Tested it by lowering MaxClients, apache hangs within 1 minute. The only temporary solution is to increase MaxClients way up, and restart the server with a cron job every period of time. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2008-11-07 09:09:38] funky2step at googlemail dot com I installed the latest snapshot of PHP5 (PHP 5.2.7RC3-dev) and the problem remains. In fact it has happened twice in the space of 24 hours. This problem doesn't just occur with this particular server and its associated site but on all other php5.2.6 and apache2 installations. Has no-one else seen this serious problem with busy sites using this software? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2008-11-06 10:38:02] funky2step at googlemail dot com Thanks for the reply. Do you actually know if there is a problem with the main release of php 5.2. I'm slightly cautious about installing a snapshot because it is a busy production site. Are there any issues with installing a snapshot? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
