The defaults in the docs really cater to a low-traffic server; perhaps there should be a note to that effect.

You could temporarily increase your ThreadsPerChild, as 25 is extremely low and increases the chances of that bug occurring.

Thanks Frank

These are the adjustments I made ...

        ThreadLimit                     500     #64
        ThreadsPerChild                 250     #25

This seems to have worked ...

Server uptime: 1 day 17 hours 23 minutes 47 seconds

Many thanks Frank

Mike


The server is not heavily used other than by script-kiddies looking for php hacks. My next project is to find some way to black-hole anything with php or wp in the request. Maybe a redirect to google or something.


I'd have to find out what fix applies to this bug, and why your installation is still vulnerable. Perhaps your distro used backports.

I can't answer such questions.

But the defaults were very restrictive originally - set by DigitalOcean I suppose. I changed them to the defaults specified in the Apache docs - per the comment lines in my original post.

Thanks for responding so quickly.

Cheers
