Hi, I don't know what happened to my Apache 2.2.4, but it now segfaults. [debug] prefork.c(991): AcceptMutex: sysvsem (default: sysvsem) [notice] child pid 2773 exit signal Segmentation fault (11) [notice] child pid 2774 exit signal Segmentation fault (11) [notice] child pid 2775 exit signal Segmentation fault (11) [notice] child pid 2776 exit signal Segmentation fault (11) [notice] child pid 2777 exit signal Segmentation fault (11) [notice] child pid 2778 exit signal Segmentation fault (11) (...etc..) I don't know if this is related to me upgrading my kernel to 2.6.21 (which is the only thing that changed recently). I am using a heavily updated Slackware 10.2. (It's closer to 11.0). Also, I don't know my way around gdb, but was hoping someone out there might be able to help this strange segfault. I am still searching through the kernel configuration to see just what is bugging up Apache, but at this point, I have no idea.
