Hi all
I rencently upgraded Apache because of the recent PHP security hole. Since that
day, my httpd processes get hundred of SIGSEGV a day. Sometime, the httpd
master process even dies, routhly every 3 days. I had to set uo a crontab to
relaunch apache if it died.
The crashes do not aloways happen at the same place. Here are two backtrace
collected from the httpd core dump:
#0 0x48a0d954 in ?? ()
#1 0x807fb8e in clean_parent_exit ()
#2 0x8082231 in standalone_main ()
#3 0x808276f in main ()
#4 0x8051f30 in ___start ()
#0 0x48a17e6c in pthread_rwlockattr_init () from /usr/pkg/lib/libpthread.so.14
#1 0x8081ab3 in startup_children ()
#2 0x8081f95 in standalone_main ()
#3 0x808276f in main ()
#4 0x8051f30 in ___start ()
here are the packages I use around apache:
ap-php-4.2.3 ap-xslt-1.1nb3
ap-ssl-2.8.12nb1 apache-1.3.27nb3
php-4.2.3nb2 php-pcre-4.2.3 php-wddx-4.2.3
php-domxml-4.2.3nb1 php-pdflib-4.2.3 php-xml-4.2.3
php-gd-4.2.3 php-pgsql-4.2.3nb1 php-xslt-4.2.3
php-gettext-4.1.2 php-session-4.2.3
I don't think it is hardware related, since other processes are fine.
Anyone getting the same problems? Any idea how to get rid of this?
