It is because you probably have a prefork/worker MPM.
The test as written will only reliably work for winnt MPM.
Doh! Prefork bites us in the a** yet again. :)
On UNIX boxes
the subsequent requests could be handled by a different child process.
The configuration as to how many servers to start is:
IfModule("prefork.c",
StartServers("3"),
MaxSpareServers("1")),
IfModule("worker.c",
StartServers("2"),
MaxClients("6"),
MinSpareThreads("1"),
MaxSpareThreads("1"),
ThreadsPerChild("3"),
MaxRequestsPerChild("0")),
Does that make sense, or did I miss something.
Yes, that makes sense. Testing it now.
I can't seem to get the publisher_cache test to work for mpm-prefork,
and I'm thinking it may not be possible to do so for the test as it's
currently conceived. I don't see any way that we can guarantee that the
same child process will serve each request in this test. Perhaps someone
else can take a look before my head explodes.
Bar run httpd in single process mode, ie., -X / -DONE_PROCESS options,
am not sure how you could get close to a reliable test for all configurations.
I already figured it was too hard and why I suggested that the test simply be
removed, or at least be disabled for now until we have a better idea.
I missed that, so I guess I need to pay more attention. I think at this
point disabling it make the most sense. Doing so now.
