FW: HTTPS Connection Timeouts

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi,

We are using Apache server version 1.3.37 on Unix, and we occasionally get a
lot of https connections at the same time (or thereabouts) to some CGI's.
Some of these https connections are getting a timeout, and in particular, a
connection to a CGI that we use monitor things with to this site from
another site (done by us).  We use cURL for this monitor, and it says "curl:
(28) SSL connection timeout".  It is somewhat of a connection blast (https)
that happens here, I'm sure.   I want to be able to better handle these
blasts.  They certainly do not happen very often, but when they do I would
like to do whatever I can to better manage them.  If it is as simple as
bumping up the Min/Max and Start Servers that would be great, but something
tells be it may be more of an volume issue with https/SSL.

Please advise what changes I can make to the Apache configuration (etc.).

In regards, I have my httpd.conf as:

Timeout 300
Timeout 300
MaxKeepAliveRequests 100
KeepAliveTimeout 15
MinSpareServers 15
MaxSpareServers 25
StartServers 15
MaxClients 150
MaxRequestsPerChild 0
