MaxRequestsPerChild is set to 0, so that's not it. Lee "Wagner, Aaron" <aaron.wagner@ban kofamerica.com> To users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx 05/03/2005 04:31 cc PM Subject RE: [users@httpd] Win32 Apache Please respond to Restart users@xxxxxxxxxxx e.org Check to see if 'MaxRequestsPerChild' is set to a number. I have a Production server in Win2K and was trying to find a way to kill zombie processes and I enabled the MaxRequestsPerChild to 500(or some number), It caused the server to cycle after the 500 requests. The default value for mpm_netware and mpm_winnt is 0. If MaxRequestsPerChild is 0, then the process will never expire. There was a significant delay when it was cycling.
