When I start apache2 ('apachectl2 start'), this appears in /var/log/apache2/error_log:

The "seg fault or similar nasty error detected in the parent process" message represents a problem? if yes, how do I solve it? 2. Why ps -a displays 6 times a similar call with httpd2 and postgres? is that the normal behavior?
