You have been subscribed to a public bug by Robie Basak (racb): System : Ubuntu 14.04.2 LTS Package : apache2 - 2.4.7-1ubuntu4.4
Description : When a reload invoked by logrotate; 2-3 time in a week apache2 stops responding requests in our web server. While in this period, clients can connect but waits indefinitely for a reply. Then apache2 needs a full restart to start serve web pages. Reload does not work in this situation. After some research we found that Apache2 has a GracefulShutdownTimeout directive that kill remaining requests after a timeout. But this directive not set (defaults to zero) in default Ubuntu config. ( See : http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/en/mod/mpm_common.html ) This should have a reasonable value in default config. Expected : Apache2 reloads and continues to serve web pages without human interaction. Happened : Apache2 waits for remaining requests indefinitely and needs a restart. ** Affects: apache2 (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Apache2 waits indefinetely when reloading https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1463635 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to the bug report. -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list [email protected] Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
