Hi,

my customer has an apache 1.3 (packed in oracle apps), which has a weird situation:

server-status?auto gives very different numbers in "Total Accesses" between subsequent executions. For example, when I run it once, I get:

Total Accesses: 2603345828

Total kBytes: 18283321

CPULoad: 1769.96

Uptime: 444860

ReqPerSec: 5852.06

BytesPerSec: 42085.4

BytesPerReq: 7.19156

BusyServers: 18

IdleServers: 0

Scoreboard: .K F         ...........

and one minute later I get:

Total Accesses: 3307582906

Total kBytes: 17513157

CPULoad: 1775.71

Uptime: 444920

ReqPerSec: 7434.11

BytesPerSec: 40307.2

BytesPerReq: 5.42193

BusyServers: 18

IdleServers: 0

Scoreboard: .K   e         ........

Note that while Total kBytes decreased, Total Accesses increased by 704237078. To me this looks like a bug in mod_status. Also this number implies 11737284 request/sec which is not inline with ReqPerSec (and not very likely anyway).

Can anyone direct me to a better explanation or a bug documentation?

thanks
