Additional related bug report here: https://bz.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=65596 Hi Morgan, Have you tried to revert the change linked by Yann Ylavic in the Apache bugzilla post? http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/httpd/httpd/branches/2.4.x/server/mpm/event/event.c?r1=1893659&r2=1893660&pathrev=1893660&view=patch I've been unable to replicate the issue sofar. @Bernard, no I've not tried applying patches and recompiling the port. For now, reverting to 2.4.48 across all my servers is a handful. Just discovered that if you issue "apachectl graceful" to do a graceful restart, the 2.4.49 version would shutdown and exit with no restart. (All the servers I had yet to revert to 2.4.48 does this at midnight and I found httpd not running at all on those). Details: all my servers are pretty vanilla running 12.2-RELEASE, GENERIC kernel, with standard packages (nothing custom, no ports). FreeBSD xxxxxxxxxx 12.2-RELEASE-p7 FreeBSD 12.2-RELEASE-p7 GENERIC amd64 # freebsd-version -u 12.2-RELEASE-p10 # freebsd-version -k 12.2-RELEASE-p7 They are also running php-fpm (just in case there is some odd interaction occurring now). Hope this helps! Also, from everything I've read elsewhere, this seems to be an issue more with servers with relatively high traffic (over 250,000 requests in a 24 hour period in my case). So reproducing this in any lighter traffic environment might be difficult. More: Apache not stable after update to 2.4.49-1.1.1.cpanel.x86_64 https://support.cpanel.net/hc/en-us/articles/4409287913111 "It has been reported that after upgrading to the RPM ea-apache24-2.4.49-1.1.1, Apache will restart and crash regularly." (In reply to Bernard Spil from comment #2) Bernard, I found another reference to this same patch in this posting which also claims it fixes the problem: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=28645786 Assuming this patch truly resolves the issue, would you take on the work to incorporate the patch in the FreeBSD port and release an updated package? If so, when might this appear in "pkg upgrade"? Considering the need to use "pkg lock" on the 2.4.48 version for now. Thanks for your help on this. Created attachment 228408 [details]
patch file for Apache PR 65592
Currently testing this on my machine.
You can drop this file in www/apache24/files and rebuild Apache.
Prepping to release 2.4.50 which should also address this bug.

I will let you know if there are any issues after testing this from the package on our dev systems first. They don't get anywhere near the same high traffic, but if they seem to be OK with some simulated traffic, I'll roll this out for production testing (and a fingers poised to revert to 2.4.48 if needed). Your efforts are much appreciated. |
