Running apache 2.0.53 on Solaris 8. Child processes build up to the maximum (MaxClients), and then the web server stops responding so I have to go and kill old httpd process (I never have to restart apache). The processes I kill are generally a few days old, or several hours old.
Not much of a point trying to debug problems in a server that is out of date. Try a more recent version. Then pull out some debugging tools. You can start with mod_status' server-status handler, which can tell you what request the stuck processes are serving. Then you can try a debugger or a syscall trace tool to attach to the processes and see what they are up to.
