I used ulimit as you told me and Apache dumped a core file at the next
segmentation fault. I ran this with gdb (typed 'gdb httpd
<core-file>' in the Apache 'bin' directory)
For some reason, somewhere in libpthread.so.0, Apache is invoking
_PR_CreateThread from
../../../../mozilla/nsprpub/pr/src/pthreads/pthreads.c. This file,
however, is apparently not found, be cause I get
"../../../../mozilla/nsprpub/pr/src/pthreads/pthread.c: No such file or
directory." Similarly, it doesn't find sslsnce.c.
Now, from now on, the httpd process in GDB either exits normally, or
produces segmentation faults at different points of its execution.
I don't always get this
segmentation fault almost immediately when I start Apache. Sometimes
it would produce output to the point that I starts waiting for
connections, but then when I connect to it through FF, the browser
would be waiting to receive the server_hello but it wouldn't come.
Sometimes, the TLS handshake continues even further.
In he meantime, I checked my database, it seems to be fine, even though
SSL_TRC still produces that -8174 error. I checked inside
nss_engine_init.c, NSS_Initialize() returns SECSuccess. I am not quite
sure this guarantees that the database is good.
Any suggestions?
Regards,
Peter
