Apache keeps increasing processes and when it reaches 256 value, it crashes. These are the values from our conf file. This doenst happen everyday, it occurs once or twice a week and at random timing.
Timeout 120
KeepAlive Off
MaxKeepAliveRequests 100
KeepAliveTimeout 15
<IfModule prefork.c>
StartServers 8
MinSpareServers 5
MaxSpareServers 20
ServerLimit 256
MaxClients 256
MaxRequestsPerChild 4000
</IfModule>
I enabled server-status and found request for index.html, is holding the processes.
Only thing i see in access logs is ""OPTIONS * HTTP/1.0" 200 - "-" "Apache (internal dummy connection)"" |

Anything in the error log why apache crashes?
Are you sure you are running apache in prefork mode? Which version of apache do you run? |
