Apache Errors & Bugs on Windows Server
Apache 2.2.3 did not restart right: Waiting for 0 worker threads to exit
Submitted by chris on September 30, 2006 - 00:38. Apache Bugs or Errors | Windows Errors and EventsI have one of my Apache 2.2.3 server scheduled to weekly restart with "D:\Apache3\bin\httpd.exe
-k restart -n Apache3".
The last time it run (last night) it did not perform normally. Here is what the
log looked like:
[Fri Sep 29 23:00:00 2006] [notice] Apache configured -- resuming normal operations
[Fri Sep 29 23:00:00 2006] [notice] Server built: Jul 27 2006 16:49:49

Apache Rotatelogs.exe for Windows Server
Submitted by chris on January 27, 2006 - 12:14. Apache Bugs or Errors | Apache Logging
When using the Apache tool, rotatelogs.exe, you can see (using the task
manager) multiple instances of rotatelogs.exe. Even when using it on just 1 web
site!
To make this issue even more disastrous when restarting the Apache (httpd.exe), not all instances of rotatelog.exe are released.
Doing some research on the web it looks like this issue has been going on since years (Apache 1.3, 2.0 and now 2.2....).
Note: I've verified this issue with both Apache 2.0.55 and 2.2.0

Running Apache + PHP + Accelerators under Windows 2003
Submitted by chris on September 19, 2006 - 20:54. Apache Install | Php Accelerators | Apache Bugs or Errors | PHP Bugs or Errors | PHP InstallI have been getting some instability running Apache with PHP + Accelerators under Windows 2003. I will log my finds in this article. Visit regularly for updates. I ended up running 7 Apaches on a Windows 2003 Server to test all different kinds of configurations. Recently because it was becoming complex, I started logging my finds. This page is probably for the hardcore debugging type...
Mitigating factors:
- Most crash seem to happen because of load (with very low traffic you might
never experience problems).
- My PHP applications are very demanding. Especially Gallery2 which relies on
external libraries for processing images. Again other PHP applications might not
experience these problems.
-If you have issues with IIS, these finding might also be applicable.

Apache: PHP 4 using mod_rewrite getting blank page
Submitted by chris on February 13, 2006 - 17:03. Apache Bugs or Errors | PHP Bugs or Errors
Bug Symptoms: Running Apache (2.2.0 distribution from xampp),
with PHP 4, I was getting a blank page. My PHP application was
using the Apache module "mod rewrite", it appeared directly related to the "rewrite" links.
Solution: Turned out that if I disable the Apache module "mod_status" it works just fine.
