Apache 1.3.14 and Tomcat 3.2.1 Dual pentium III processors with 1 GB memory >Description: I have a production application running on Apache server with Tomcat as servlet engine. The apache server fails to respond after regular interval of once a day. There is no response from Apache when it happens and killing apache process is the only way to get out of this mess. All this time, if I try to run the app. through tomcat( port 8080),application is running fine. Need to know a solution sooner as this is becoming a big issue w.r.t dependability of Apache on Win2000 m/c. The number of hits is not that large.

The number of hits is not that large. Just 20-30 users connected at all time - all day. There have been a number of patches, some quite subtle, that could have an effect on these problems. Please upgrade Apache to 1.3.20 (necessary to avert a denial-of-service attack) and Tomcat 3.2.2, the combination of which may impact your issue. If that doesn't solve the problem, please try to provide a useful amount of detail on the type of traffic that fails v.s. anything that still functions (does loading mod_status allow you to watch for dead connections, etc.) And you may wish to think about using the MaxRequestsPerChild argument. Although there would be up to a one minute hiccup, if you can time it about once a day that shouldn't be all too noticable, and is preferable to your current problem. The other obvious point, what modules are used/loaded on this server?
