Re: Apache 2.2.4 in Win 2K SP4 causes BSOD (afd.sys) on accesses

Followup: so far those two directives(?) seem to be making a difference: 

Apache has been running for six hours now with no BSODs, and there have 

been plenty of hits during that time.  Apache seems to be using much 

more RAM than it was before, but that might simply be because I've never 

seen it survive for six hours before.

As an aside, does anyone know why I wind up with TWO instances of httpd 

running in Windows, as reported in Task Manager?  This is not uncommon, 

I have other services that show up as two processes rather than one, as 

well.  I'm just curious why that happens with some services and not others.

William, thanks again for what appears to be a successful solution.

Thank you for the suggestion; at my current level of understanding it 

would have been impossible for me to make such educated guesses.  Are 

there negative consequences to disabling these two features for my 

very simple usage of Apache?  I will test this scenario and share the 

results here.

well known, no.  But if you have disabled acceptex, you may also want to

turn EnableSendfile off and EnableMMap off.  If this does not resolve 

your

issue, I'd suggest afd.sys is simply a buggy version.
