The apache version, installation directories, paths, document root, everything basically is no where near what the apache docs have in it on most distributions I have seen. --------------------------------------------------------------------- The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.

I noticed the issue on a few servers. If the httpd server limit is set to a low number then in theory I thought it should help when their is a lot of requests by stopping resource starvation from excessive child processes. Instead I just get queued requests and a large number of httpd processes stuck in RUN state. Even with keepalive off and timeout set to a very low value the RUN state persists. I solved this for a busy site by upgrading the hardware significantly and moving from apache 1.3 to 2.2 which seems to handle the situation better and that stopped the RUN sticking on the child processes. Spec of server with the problem worst before I moved busy site. FreeBSD 6.0 AMD 64 3200+ (i386 mode) 2 gig ram apache 1.3 php 4.4.2 mysql 4.1 the ram never saturated and swap was never used more then a few kB. It was cpu saturation.
