Download Description


THIS FIX IS SUPERSEDED BY LATER INTERIM FIXES
The interim fix for this APAR has been superseded by APAR PH44829. Download and install the fix for PH44829 to resolve this issue.

PH41945 resolves the following problem:

ERROR DESCRIPTION:
On Linux and z/OS, if MaxRequestsPerChild is non-zero, IHS may
get into a state where no processes are available to accept new
client connections.

USERS AFFECTED:
All users of IBM HTTP Server on Linux and zOS

PROBLEM DESCRIPTION:

IHS may stop responding then stop accepting no new connections.
ps output shows no request handling processes (with appx
ThreadsPerChild threads) are running, only utility daemons.
LOCAL FIX:
If the fix cannot be applied, set MaxRequestsPerChild to "0".

PROBLEM CONCLUSION:
The code was fixed to properly count the number of "active
daemons" when children exit due to MaxRequestsPerChild.

The fix for this APAR is targeted for inclusion in IBM HTTP
Server fix packs and 9.0.5.11. For more information, see
