I'm looking at http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/install.html but it seems mainly aimed at people who are already very familiar with the system (indeed, who wouldn't need the information on that page). The trouble is that if you're not familiar with it, then even a small omissions in the instructions can leave you lost. For example, there's no section on recompiling a build that's already on your machine. This is a dedicated Web server I'm leasing;
The install instructions are only for someone installing apache from source obtained from httpd.apache.org. Otherwise, you need to get instructions from whomever you obtained apache from. There are so many different possibilities for install locations/configurations/etc that it would be impossible to document them all in the main docs. As to your original problem, note that MaxClients defaults to 256; see http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/misc/perf-tuning.html and http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/mod/prefork.html Joshua. --------------------------------------------------------------------- The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.
