i have just reviewed the weekend logs for our RT server on apache and have yet to see any more segfaults; this being without downgrading/upgrading DBD::mysql... (i am still at 4.00.7)... i did, however, before leaving on friday, disable the "-D SSL" flag in my /etc/conf.d/apache2 file, making apache start up without SSL support (we don't need it running on the server as it won't be using https).. i don't know if this had anything to do with it, but i will certainly keep monitoring this issue closely and let everyone know if anything ever happens again, in which case i will try to switch DBD::mysql versions and confirm the fix.
thanks to all who participated in the issue so far, as i am sure this affects a lot of people. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of d tbsky Sent: Monday, September 29, 2008 7:44 AM To: Emmanuel Lacour Cc: [email protected] Subject: Re: [rt-users] reall odd apache2 crashes with blank pages 2008/9/29 Emmanuel Lacour <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > On Mon, Sep 29, 2008 at 08:12:30PM +0800, d tbsky wrote: >> 2008/9/27 Gabriel Cadieux <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: >> > i was told it is probably being caused by a bug in the version of >> > DBD::mysql that we have currently installed (mine is 4.00.7, which is the >> > one described in the link below as having this issue). >> > >> > i am still trying to figure out if other stuff is causing it, but on >> > monday i will downgrade to 4.00.5 >> > (gentoo has no ebuild for 4.00.6 for some reason) if the issue is still >> > occuring and let everyone know >> > if this fixes the problem. >> > >> > link: http://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=36810 >> > >> > (thanks to David Chandek-Stark for this information). >> >> thanks for the information. >> our new rt 3.8.1 system is suffered for this problem. i was wondering >> if mod_perl cause the problem. >> hope we will hear the good news from you. > > > I'm not sure it's related, I had the mysql morning bug on 2 new RT > installations (Debian lenny, 64bit).
