I've installed Apache 1.3.4, which I've compiled from source, on a FreeBSD 2.2.8-RELEASE system. The server is running from inetd and tcp_wrappers. The problem is, it will intermittantly terminate with a SIGALRM. Bascially, the server will randomly, instead of sending the requested html to the requesting browser, send a blank page with the words "Alarm clock." It will usually do this several times in a row, and then start working again, for no apparent reason. Looking through the Apache source this string appears to be a SIGALRM: http_main.c: ap_sys_siglist[SIGALRM] = "Alarm clock"; My question, I suppose, is what causes a SIGALRM? Has anyone ever seen this before? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
