When using PHP_FCGI_CHILDREN=n, the PHP parent process forks n childs, and the parent acts as a manager between the child processes, wait()ing to respawn them if they are killed or exit. The problem happens when the FastCGI process manager handled by the apache module has to kill the parent PHP process (it only knows the parent's PID) for any reason such as idle timeout, max lifetime, etc. Problem: While the PHP parent process is properly killed by the FastCGI process manager, the children aren't killed, but instead stay alive, waiting for - a new request which will never come (because the socket shared with the - parent is removed at the same time parent is killed). - ---------------- + a new request which will never come. + This sooner or later uses up all availible RAM and lead to a DOS. + + Workaround: See comments.
