I am occasionally seeing a seg fault and/or "ap_get_scoreboard_lb(%d) failed in child" in logs in apache on one particular instance of our software (see anonymised example below). This should be on: apache2-mpm-prefork 2.2.14-5ubuntu8.7 or similar (I am checking). This occurs after doing a 'reload' on apache, then trying to use the a site with a reverse proxy (relevant lines of config appended). I note this bug: https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=41729 which does not contain the seg fault, but seems similar. There is apparently and issue with graceful reload of apache and scoreboard maintenance for the reverse proxy. Google suggests others are having similar issues. Any ideas: 1. How to get around this, without doing a stop/start every time rather than a reload, which is undesirable (we have automated processes triggering a reload)? 2. How to detect when it has got into this state? 3. Why it might be affecting one particular customer of ours, and not the rest of the world? -- Alex Bligh[Thu Jun 21 15:29:42 2012] [notice] child pid 17313 exit signal Segmentation fault (11) [Thu Jun 21 15:29:43 2012] [notice] child pid 17317 exit signal Segmentation fault (11) [Thu Jun 21 15:29:43 2012] [error] proxy: ap_get_scoreboard_lb(2) failed in child 17404 for worker proxy:reverse [Thu Jun 21 15:29:43 2012] [error] proxy: ap_get_scoreboard_lb(0) failed in child 17404 for worker http://192.200.0.2:1234/admin/ [Thu Jun 21 15:29:43 2012] [error] proxy: ap_get_scoreboard_lb(1) failed in child 17404 for worker http://192.200.0.2:1234/user/ [Thu Jun 21 15:29:44 2012] [notice] child pid 17316 exit signal Segmentation fault (11) [Thu Jun 21 15:29:44 2012] [error] proxy: ap_get_scoreboard_lb(2) failed in child 17408 for worker proxy:reverse [Thu Jun 21 15:29:44 2012] [error] proxy: ap_get_scoreboard_lb(2) failed in child 17407 for worker proxy:reverse [Thu Jun 21 15:29:44 2012] [error] proxy: ap_get_scoreboard_lb(0) failed in child 17408 for worker http://192.200.0.2:1234/admin/ [Thu Jun 21 15:29:44 2012] [error] proxy: ap_get_scoreboard_lb(0) failed in child 17407 for worker http://192.200.0.2:1234/admin/ [Thu Jun 21 15:29:44 2012] [error] proxy: ap_get_scoreboard_lb(1) failed in child 17408 for worker http://192.200.0.2:1234/user/ [Thu Jun 21 15:29:44 2012] [error] proxy: ap_get_scoreboard_lb(1) failed in child 17407 for worker http://192.200.0.2:1234/user/ [Thu Jun 21 15:29:45 2012] [notice] child pid 17322 exit signal Segmentation fault (11) [Thu Jun 21 15:29:46 2012] [notice] child pid 17326 exit signal Segmentation fault (11) [Thu Jun 21 15:29:46 2012] [error] proxy: ap_get_scoreboard_lb(2) failed in child 17413 for worker proxy:reverse [Thu Jun 21 15:29:46 2012] [error] proxy: ap_get_scoreboard_lb(0) failed in child 17413 for worker http://192.200.0.2:1234/admin/ [Thu Jun 21 15:29:46 2012] [error] proxy: ap_get_scoreboard_lb(1) failed in child 17413 for worker http://192.200.0.2:1234/user/
