    <title>CLOSE_WAIT problem</title>
    <link>http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.apache.user/99932</link>
    <description>&lt;pre&gt;Hi all,

I sent this issue to the dev mailing but I couldn't receive any responses. I
think this subject is fit to be discussed in the user mailing so I am
sending this again. :-)

When I tested mod_proxy + mod_proxy_balancer + (mod_proxy_ajp or
mod_proxy_http) with worker mpm, I always met CLOSE_WAIT state in apache
httpd proxy side.

I tested the following scenario.

- Sending a request at the browser -&amp;gt; apache httpd,  mod proxy -&amp;gt; ajp or
http java server(1)
- Normally, browser received the response correctly and the connection state
became to be ESTABLISHED.
- And java server closed the ajp or http connection with timeout(Or
terminate java server forcibly).
- Then apache httpd proxy machine always had the CLOSE_WAIT state about the
connection.

It seemed that the apache httpd proxy modules(?) did not try to close the
invalid socket which had been already closed at the peer side(the backend
java server side).

Perhaps is it already the known issue?

When I searched similar issues, I found
https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=51814 .

Actually, I am not sure that this problem is related to mod_proxy modules
because I could meet the same problem with using mod_jk(In other words, I
think that it can be httpd's issue. but I am not sure). In mod_jk, I could
work around the problem with using periodic ping logic which cleaned up the
CLOSE_WAIT connections.

Please give me some advice if I am misunderstanding something.

I'd appreciate some help.

Thanks!

OK, I have closed down that virtual host I had set up ( which was the source
of those aggregator web page requests), but I am still getting the same
problems. It starts out with 9 copies of httpd daemon running. After a few
hours it is up to 15 or 20. I have no idea what is causing this. 
I have now put in a cron job which checks every 10 min and if it finds more
than 24 instances of httpd running, it restarts httpd (service httpd restart)
But this is clearly a horrible kludge. 
Is there any way I can figure out what is triggering these versions of httpd
to be piling up?

    <description>&lt;pre&gt;Hi,

I'm running apache2 Version: 2.2.16-6+squeeze4 on my Debian GNU/Linux
Squeeze operating system.

I have installed Moodle on this web server and it can be opened from
the Internet: http://cspl.me/moodle

I have my small (Joomla) website too: http://cspl.me on this web server.

It can be opened from my home LAN but can't be opened from the Internet.

One get the error message:
The page isn't redirecting properly
Iceweasel has detected that the server is redirecting the request for
this address in a way that will never complete. 

What can cause this problem?
Any advices will be appreciated!

    <description>&lt;pre&gt;Eric,

Thanks for your response. That's sort of what I figured since processing is 
handed over to fcgi to complete the request then httpd has no control at 
that point, and any response headers that were set before by httpd could 
be overwritten. The strange thing is that I have a similar block of code 
on a mod_php server that isn't working either. I have found numerous 
resourced online that say a 'Header set Content-type "text/css"' 
directive should work for a regular old mod_php setup.

Most of those *type directives only apply when apache serves a static
file by that name. If you're generating it from fcgi, you have to
issue the content-type yourself.

    <link>http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.apache.user/99926</link>
    <description>&lt;pre&gt;Hi,

I am running PHP through mod_fgcid using the following setup in a conf file:

&amp;lt;IfModule !mod_php4.c&amp;gt;
&amp;lt;IfModule !mod_php4_filter.c&amp;gt;
&amp;lt;IfModule !mod_php5.c&amp;gt;
&amp;lt;IfModule !mod_php5_filter.c&amp;gt;
&amp;lt;IfModule !mod_php5_hooks.c&amp;gt;
&amp;lt;IfModule mod_actions.c&amp;gt;
&amp;lt;IfModule mod_alias.c&amp;gt;
&amp;lt;IfModule mod_mime.c&amp;gt;
&amp;lt;IfModule mod_fcgid.c&amp;gt;
&amp;lt;IfModule mod_headers.c&amp;gt;
        DefaultInitEnv  PHPRC=/etc/php5/cgi
        #DefaultInitEnv PHP_FCGI_MAX_REQUESTS 5000

        AddHandler php-fcgi .php .css
        Action php-fcgi /fcgi-bin/php-fcgi-wrapper
        AddType application/x-httpd-php .php .css
        &amp;lt;FilesMatch "\.css$"&amp;gt;
                Header set Content-type "text/css"
        &amp;lt;/FilesMatch&amp;gt;

        Alias /fcgi-bin/ /var/www/fcgi-bin.d/php5-default/
        &amp;lt;Location /fcgi-bin/&amp;gt;
                SetHandler fcgid-script
                Options +ExecCGI
                Order Allow,Deny
                Allow from All
        &amp;lt;/Location&amp;gt;
&amp;lt;/IfModule&amp;gt;
&amp;lt;/IfModule&amp;gt;
&amp;lt;/IfModule&amp;gt;
&amp;lt;/IfModule&amp;gt;
&amp;lt;/IfModule&amp;gt;
&amp;lt;/IfModule&amp;gt;
&amp;lt;/IfModule&amp;gt;
&amp;lt;/IfModule&amp;gt;
&amp;lt;/IfModule&amp;gt;
&amp;lt;/IfModule&amp;gt;

As you can see, in addition to parsing .php files as PHP, I am also parsing
.css files as PHP. This is indeed working, however the Content-type is not
being set correctly in the response headers from my server. The
Content-type for .css files is still text/html. I added the &amp;lt;FilesMatch
"\.css$"&amp;gt; directive to try to set the Content-type, but that is not
working. I'm guessing that the fact that I'm using mod_fcgid has something
to do with this, as the mod_fcgid processing is probably rewriting the
Content-type to text/html after I set it to text/css? I've tried several
different permutations including the ForceType directive, but I just can't
get the Content-type set correctly. The only approach I've found that works
is to stick a header("Content-type: text/css") at the top of my css files,
which is inconvenient to say the least. Anyone have a solution for this?

Thanks,
Ross

Unfortunately, they aren't - they're just entries in an htdigest file.

There is a shortcut if the those names are system users and they
actually own their directories:

    <link>http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.apache.user/99922</link>
    <description>&lt;pre&gt;Hi all,

I would appreciate any suggetions on how to achieve the following:

I have a large number of per-user directories:

  /var/www/user1
  /var/www/user2
  /var/www/user3
  ...

And a htdigest file containing usernames and passwords for all of these
users.

I want to set up authentication for each user to access just their own
directory.

The obvious method is to have a very long Apache config file, with
"Require user1", "Require user2", etc. specified manually for each
directory.

However, I have a lot of users!

Is there some clever way around this, for example a way to do:

  Require &amp;lt;auth_username=root_directory_name&amp;gt;


Or alternatively, a way for me to have "Require valid-user", but then
somehow prevent users from accessing directories other than their own?
(even with a hack like rewrite rules?)

Thanks for any pointers,

Richard.

    <description>&lt;pre&gt;Aha-- under "www.emergentgravity.org" I do have an aggregator apparently. 
(Just tried it and I do get a whole bunch of news items.) so this must be what
is giving those strange "GET" entries. 
(This site was set up by someone else and thus my knowledge of what it does is
pretty sketchy.)

OK, I do have a "virtual host", www.emergentgravity.org defined on this
system.

In /etc/httpd/conf/vhosts.d/00_default_vhosts.conf I have 
---------------------------------------- 
NameVirtualHost *:80
&amp;lt;VirtualHost *:80&amp;gt;
ServerName www.theory.physics.ubc.ca
ServerAlias theory.physics.ubc.ca
DocumentRoot /usr/local/http/htdocs
&amp;lt;/VirtualHost&amp;gt;

&amp;lt;VirtualHost *:80&amp;gt;
   ServerName www.emergentgravity.org
   ServerAlias emergentgravity.org
          DocumentRoot /usr/local/http/htdocs/emergent/drupal.new
&amp;lt;/VirtualHost&amp;gt;
-------------------------------------------

This is the whole of that file.
This is supposed to be so that a www.emergentgravity.org address goes to its
drupal document root, and such that anything coming in to
www.theory.physics.ubc.ca comes in to /usr/local/http/htdocs.

If you suspect I have no idea what I am doing in setting this up, you are
correct. Have I managed to stick in a feedback loop in here?



Unfortunately Mandriva never bothered to supply the apache-debug package for
this version of apache.



Sorry, I have no idea what this sentence means. (prefork, worker mpm)

Then a server module is likely pinging itself.  Any chance you set up an infinite proxy
recursion here?


Looking more and more like a proxy recursion/infinite looping sort of config error.


Dumps all threads instead of just one of them.


It might be helpful to first install the debuginfo for the apr/httpd packages, but this
looks like it might be in the accept queue waiting on the MutexFile to unblock this one
(and is probably a healthy process).

If you are running prefork we would encourage you to try the worker mpm.

It is basically what Mandriva has as its default.



There are no processes running on this same box. It is rarely used. and
certainly did not have a browser running at that time.

There is no such file or path on my system. If I try to use it, I get file not
found. I have nothing called /aggregator/



That was what I thought.



Yup. Just displying it on the off chance it could be problematic. Since I have
not the ghost of an idea what could be wrong, I also have not the ghost of an
idea what could be a symptom either.

Never seen such a crazy startup line, I presume all of your modules have individual
&amp;lt;IfDefine &amp;gt; blocks around each?


That's your own local loopback from a process running on this same box.


No clue.  Maybe playing with open proxies?  The document seems to be 58k if that helps you
at all (maybe a local index page?)


Certainly harmless and most common from crawlers and web browsers respectively.  You may
want to add a simple one line robots.txt file, and a simple default icon.

port 80 &amp;amp; 443)

    <description>&lt;pre&gt;I see the mod_fcgid is already ready for apache 2.4 but
but mod_fcgid is not correctl checking for suexec

mod_fcgid compiled with /usr/include/apache/unixd.h
and there is

typedef struct {
    const char *user_name;
    const char *group_name;
    uid_t user_id;
    gid_t group_id;
    int suexec_enabled;
    const char *chroot_dir;
    const char *suexec_disabled_reason; /* suitable msg if !suexec_enabled */
} unixd_config_rec;
AP_DECLARE_DATA extern unixd_config_rec ap_unixd_config;


So how we can set suexec_enabled to 1 ? because now mod_fcgid detect it as disable
and tried to use old  ap_unixd_setup_child()


Suexec in apache 2.4 is compiled correctly and wrapper exists
-rwsr-xr-x 1 root root 23K maj 22 19:03 /usr/sbin/suexec

    <title>Denial of Service due to multiplication of httpd running</title>
    <link>http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.apache.user/99914</link>
    <description>&lt;pre&gt;
Madriva 2010.2 running httpd apache 2.2.22

I am having trouble with httpd requests staying active and multiplying. 
I just came off having 160 versions of httpd running and completely slowing
down the system. I upgraded to 2.2.22 and it still happens (it went from the
normal 10 servers running to 15 in about a 1/2 hour.) According to the start
times, these seem to be associated with totally bizarre requests from google
(forged addresses?)

Eg, here is one entry from the ps auxww  list

apache   18137  0.0  0.5  26844  5744 ?        S    09:34   0:00 /usr/sbin/httpd -f /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf -DAPACHE2 -DHAVE_PERL -DHAVE_PHP5 -DHAVE_ACTIONS -DHAVE_ALIAS -DHAVE_ASIS -DHAVE_AUTH_BASIC -DHAVE_AUTH_DIGEST -DHAVE_AUTHN_ALIAS -DHAVE_AUTHN_ANON -DHAVE_AUTHN_DBM -DHAVE_AUTHN_DEFAULT -DHAVE_AUTHN_FILE -DHAVE_AUTHZ_DBM -DHAVE_AUTHZ_DEFAULT -DHAVE_AUTHZ_GROUPFILE -DHAVE_AUTHZ_HOST -DHAVE_AUTHZ_OWNER -DHAVE_AUTHZ_USER -DHAVE_AUTOINDEX -DHAVE_BUCKETEER -DHAVE_CASE_FILTER -DHAVE_CASE_FILTER_IN -DHAVE_CERN_META -DHAVE_CGI -DHAVE_CGID -DHAVE_CHARSET_LITE -DHAVE_DIR -DHAVE_DUMPIO -DHAVE_ECHO -DHAVE_ENV -DHAVE_EXAMPLE -DHAVE_EXPIRES -DHAVE_EXT_FILTER -DHAVE_FILTER -DHAVE_HEADERS -DHAVE_IDENT -DHAVE_IMAGEMAP -DHAVE_INCLUDE -DHAVE_INFO -DHAVE_LOG_CONFIG -DHAVE_LOG_FORENSIC -DHAVE_LOGIO -DHAVE_MIME -DHAVE_MIME_MAGIC -DHAVE_NEGOTIATION -DHAVE_OPTIONAL_FN_EXPORT -DHAVE_OPTIONAL_FN_IMPORT -DHAVE_OPTIONAL_HOOK_EXPORT -DHAVE_OPTIONAL_HOOK_IMPORT -DHAVE_REWRITE -DHAVE_SETENVIF -DHAVE_SPELING -DHAVE_SSL -DHAVE_STATUS -DHAVE_SUBSTITUTE -DHAVE_SUEXEC -DHAVE_UNIQUE_ID -DHAVE_USERTRACK -DHAVE_VERSION -DHAVE_VHOST_ALIAS

At that time in the 
access_log I have a whole bunch of entries like
::1 - - [22/May/2012:09:34:22 -0700] "OPTIONS * HTTP/1.0" 200 - "-" "Apache/2.2.22 (Mandriva Linux/PREFORK-0.1mdv2010.2) (internal dummy connection)"


In the past I have also had connections like 
66.249.68.198 - - [22/May/2012:09:35:25 -0700] "GET /aggregator/www.umsl.edu/~keelr/010/www.twitter.com/www.iaea.org/Publications/Documents/Board/2008/www.environment-agency.gov.uk/homeandleisure/floods/node/www.guardian.co.uk/business/2012/feb/21/node/node/22?page=11 HTTP/1.1" 200 58609 "-" "Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; Googlebot/2.1; +http://www.google.com/bot.html)"

associated with the times of the startup of those persistant connections. This
looks to be a totally bizzare GET. since that address certainly has nothing to
do with my site.

In the error log around that time I get nothing that looks suspicious

    <title>Proxy streaming of files</title>
    <link>http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.apache.user/99913</link>
    <description>&lt;pre&gt;I configured a reverse-proxy server using apache, but I need to know if the files can be streamed to the requestors while they are being transferred from the proxied server and stored in the cache.
Can streaming work with any type of file, no matter if it's a plain text, html or picture?

Any help is highly appreciated.

Thank you

See if your child processes segfault every time a PHP script is called.  If
so, the raw (text/html) for the script is sent to the client.  The solution
is to use one of the previous (5.3.x) versions of PHP.
