I am first time using this mailing list, so I hope I do everything the right way. I appreciate any help, thank you. (I don't even know if that is a server problem I am facing) I am experiencing an issue with our website chinafitter.com If you go to the website and right click on any navigation item and select "copy link" and paste this link (#1) into a new browser tab, the page will open. If you stay on that page, copy the URL that is now displayed within the same browser tab, paste this link (#2) again into another or same browser tab, the page gives me a 404. If you take link #1 and #2 next to each other is exactly the same link. Same effect: just open any page on the website and click in the browser's URL bar, and just hit enter. It gives you a 404. As you can see, the page uses chinese characters also in the URLs. Before the relaunch, it worked well on the same server with the same wordpress CMS. The only thing I found out: When copy the link from the HTML page itself, the Link looks like that (with lowercase letters): http://www.chinafitter.com/30%e5%a4%a9hiit%e5%87%8f%e8%84%82%e5%81%a5%e8%ba%ab%e8%a7%86%e9%a2%91%e8%af%be%e7%a8%8b%e8%ae%a1%e5%88%92/ if I copy it from the browser bar, it looks like that: http://www.chinafitter.com/30%E5%A4%A9hiit%E5%87%8F%E8%84%82%E5%81%A5%E8%BA%AB%E8%A7%86%E9%A2%91%E8%AF%BE%E7%A8%8B%E8%AE%A1%E5%88%92/ Hope anyone has an idea what that might be and how to fix that?

Re: [users@httpd] Apache stops serving pages - Success!
Success!!! Thank you to Kevin and Yann in particular along with others that added comments. A couple hours after I posted my last comment about not wanting to make multiple changes to resolve the problem, it stopped responding again. So I remoted into the server and added the two lines for AcceptFilter to the configuration and restarted Apache. Confirmed in the error log that the AcceptFilter directives were in place. I'm now getting close to 3 days without a failure. So it looks like that was the solution. Thanks! Jim
Re: [users@httpd] Apache stops serving pages
Thanks for the more detailed answer. I was not familiar with the AcceptFilter command. Since it was in Apache, I assumed (incorrectly) that it was controlling filtering in Apache. I did a Google search and quickly found that it is actually controlling Winsock, so now it makes sense that it would not show up in the Apache error log. Learn something new every day! I kind of dislike making multiple changes to resolve a problem because then you may not know which one solved the problem. Even if the change to 32 bit fixed the issue, I will add this in a week or two cause it does sound like a good idea!

Re: [users@httpd] Apache stops serving pages
Personally I loved windows 2K. I had several user PCs running 2K Pro at home, and ran the computer I used as a server under 2K Server for almost a decade until it died a little over a year ago. Only reason I replaced it was because it died - leaking caps on the mother board. I was given a 64 bit Dell server that I loaded up with Server 2012 R2 and like you it seemed reasonable to install 64 bit Apache. It's now been about 12 hours since I "upgraded" to a 32 bit version and so far it's stable. I won't really call it fixed for at least a week, but based on the recent track record, this is doing pretty good. I will be taking the server down this weekend for an hour or two for it's annual dust cleaning, and I'm going to add some RAM to it. And depending on how much money is left after today's bill paying (today is payday for me), I might increase replace the hard drives in the data RAID array to increase capacity...

Running after the upgrade. We'll see what it does... I have a system that has run for many years on local intranets and was being served by windows 2k and XP machines which were essentially 32bit set-ups. Moving to W7 the replacement machines were inevitably configured 64bit and so the obvious action was to add 64 bit server code, but the day in day out reliability disappeared. Did try a 32bit stack on the 64bit windows, but are now running 32bit windows as well. Of cause we were told that we should be using server versions of windows for this, but these machines manage perhaps 1% active time and the only reason not to use 'virtual' servers on some other hardware is to maintain sub second responses when doing things like printing a ticket or receipt. ( How many of you have experienced the 30 second delay waiting for windows to process a network print request after hitting the finish link on a session. Very annoying for staff and customers when there is a queue at the reception desk! ) Where we have moved to a Linux based stack things have been even more responsive, back to the 24/7 stability that W2k and NT4 provided and even smaller percentages on the active working times :) -- Lester Caine - G8HFL - Contact - http://lsces.co.uk/wiki/?page=contact L.S.Caine Electronic Services - http://lsces.co.uk EnquirySolve - http://enquirysolve.com/ Model Engineers Digital Workshop - http://medw.co.uk Rainbow Digital Media - http://rainbowdigitalmedia.co.uk - To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@httpd.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@httpd.apache.org

If I go into services and manually start it, I get an error message that says the service could not be started and gives a very generic error message that says to look in the Windows System event log for details. When I look in the Windows System event log, all is says is that the service shut down due to an invalid function. Finally renamed config files so that it had the default It works configuration, and get the same problem. Anyone have an brilliant ideas? Jim

When I try to start the Apache2.4 service I get a popup box with the following: Windows could not start the Apache2.4 on Local Computer. For more information, review the System Event Log. If this is a non-Microsoft service, contact the service vendor, and refer to service-specific error code 1. When I look at the Windows System Event Log, I get the following two events: Event ID 7036 The apache2.4 service entered the stopped state. and Event 7024 The Apache2.4 service terminated with the following service-specific error: Incorrect function. There are no other events in any of the server logs.

Re: [users@httpd] Help - 2.2 to 2.4 migration onto new server failing
Second reply to this suggestion. The first time I tried it not as a service, I did it from Windows Explorer, and nothing happened. I tried it again (as you suggested) from a command prompt. This time I got an error message that told me what was going on. The error message (and I'm not going to quote it) was that it could not bind to port 80. So I rather quickly edited the httpd.conf file to try port 81, and again started it. This time it started just fine. Pointed a web browser at the local IP (since I had not changed my router to pass port 81), and it came right up to the web page. Shut it down and tried to start it as a service and again it came right up and worked. Obviously, I have substantially narrowed down the issue. Just for good measure, I tried pointing a web browser to port 80 and got a 404 error page. Now to figure out what is running on port 80. Netstat and task manager comes up with NT Kernel System... Thanks for getting me pointed in the right direction...

Maybe I'm not understanding the problem. As I understand it, you dont want a user that has ftp access to one of your virtual hosts to be able to have read access to another of the virtual hosts. What's the problem? As I understand the question, this has everything to do with the security and setup of your ftp server and nothing to do with apache. I have this very easily. I use Bulletproof FTP server and I can easily allow a user ID whatever access and to whatever directories I want. The two virtual servers have completely different document roots.

However, in my point of view, I think when a Windows user want a simple web server will go for IIS because it has a GUI. This will affect Apache usage share, though not that much but at least will have an impact. As an Apache under Windows user, I would strongly disagree with that statement. The ability to use a GUI had absolutely no bearing on my decision to use Apache over IIS. It was totally based on lack of security of most of the Microsoft products. OK, I might be a little biased due to a problem many years ago when I needed to get a ftp server up that would only be used for one event lasting less than one day. Set up ftp using IIS and got virused within hours even with latest version of IIS and all the updates at the time. Turned out to be a well known security hole that MS had not yet fixed at that time... Short version is that I could not care less if Apache used a GUI or not. -- 73 - Jim Walls - K6CCC j...@k6ccc.org Ofc: 818-548-4804 http://home.earthlink.net/~k6ccc AMSAT Member 32537 - WSWSS Member 395 - The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.

Michael Avila wrote: Is there a way to create an .htaccess file under Windows XP Pro? I would like to locked down a directory from direct outside connection but Windows does not like that type of filename. Would it be easier just to rename all of the .htaccess files to something else and change the Apache conf file to reflect the change? I prefer not to do that because of all of the applications that come with .htaccess files. I'm liable to forget to rename them. I was about to say that you were crazy because I have no problem with .htaccess on my server. However a little further testing and I found you were right. I also found a partial workaround however... Let me explain my network and the testing I did. I have Apache running on a Windows 2000 Server computer. Most of the management (including .htaccess stuff), I do from this Windows XP computer with the C: drive on the server mapped as Z: on this XP box. I have no problems at all reading or editing an existing .htaccess file on the XP computer. However, as you reported, I could not create a new .htaccess file on the XP computer. I could even copy an existing .htaccess file (either locally on the XP computer or remotely from the 2000 server) to the local XP computer and then edit it. The workaround would be create a .htaccess file on another computer and copy it via a floppy, USB drive, CD, etc to your XP computer. I even tried sending myself an e-mail with a .htaccess file as an attachment. When I received it on the XP computer, I had no problem saving it, and then reading, copying, or editing it. To that end, I will happily send you a dummy .htaccess file as an attachment.
