Sorry for being unclear im my statement about this problem. I am not blaming
the code at all. I am only watching at facts: I can see this problem (as
also other say) mostly on Mandrake and Windoze, so my guess is about
something related to these systems. I'm asking from some developers' help,
'cos as a user I cannot look at what is inside the box (the code); I can
only help telling clearly what I can see just from the outside, as if it was
a blackbox (and it should be, of course), helping my way (the user way!)
improving the quality of the whole process. If I had knowledge and time, I'd
like to fight with such a problem; It sounds more like a system problem, and
the need is having code working in different situations, 'cos in more
standard situations mod_jk seems to work perfectly.
So, one thing is to claim, one other to blame; we are only begging help,
this is not a shame.
Just to know: is anybody experiencing the same problem with Linux distrib
other than RedHat?
