All autopkgtests for the newly accepted mod-wsgi (4.5.17-1ubuntu1) for bionic have finished running. The following regressions have been reported in tests triggered by the package:
nova/2:17.0.12-0ubuntu1 (armhf) Please visit the excuses page listed below and investigate the failures, proceeding afterwards as per the StableReleaseUpdates policy regarding autopkgtest regressions [1]. https://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-archive/proposed- migration/bionic/update_excuses.html#mod-wsgi [1] https://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates#Autopkgtest_Regressions Thank you! -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of STS Sponsors, which is subscribed to the bug report. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1863232 Title: daemon rotates socket on restart Status in mod-wsgi package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in mod-wsgi source package in Xenial: Fix Committed Status in mod-wsgi source package in Bionic: Fix Committed Bug description: [Impact] * Lack of option for disabling wsgi socket rotation leads to errors on graceful restarts, making them not as graceful. * Specifically, when mod-wsgi is running in daemon mode (which uses sockets), and a graceful restart ('sudo systemctl reload apache2') happens, the socket filename changes, and upcoming HTTP requests in a keep-alive connection (i.e., same connection is re-utilized for multiple HTTP requests) initiated before the graceful restart are failed (HTTP 503 error) because the socket file is not found. * This change introduces a new config option WSGISocketRotation that allows to disable the rotation. * The option is disabled by default, so the default behavior remains consistent with the previous versions (ie, socket rotation occurs.) * This is actually desired, and designed that way by upstream, because disabling socket rotation requires no _wsgi_ config changes, as they can impact/alter the upcoming HTTP requests (see patch link.) [Test Case] * Setup apache2 with mod-wsgi. * Make sure there are some wsgi sockets open. * Reload apache gracefully. * (Detailed steps are provided in comments #9 and #10) Expected result: No errors related to sockets in the logs Actual result: There are error messages related to sockets in the logs. [Regression Potential] * Since the value is set to On by default any regressions would manifest only after explicitly setting it to Off. * After it's set to off WSGI application behavior will change on reloads - connections should be resumed instead of cancelled. [Other Info] * The fix has been introduced in mod-wsgi 4.6.0, thus already present in Disco/Eoan/Focal, only needed in Xenial/Bionic. * Original bug description: On Apache reloads the WSGI daemon tries to rotate wsgi sockets causing unnecessary log entries, especially in OpenStack context. This has been addressed in mod-wsgi upstream (4.6.0) and could be backported to Ubuntu.
