The offending options if 0 by the way, here's the relevant area... I have never changed anything in that area... the default configuration httpd.conf from cvsweb for 4.2release does not work neither:
# # MaxRequestsPerChild: the number of requests each child process is # allowed to process before the child dies. The child will exit so # as to avoid problems after prolonged use when Apache (and maybe the # libraries it uses) leak memory or other resources. On most systems, this # isn't really needed, but a few (such as Solaris) do have notable leaks # in the libraries. # MaxRequestsPerChild 0 # # MaxFOOPerChild: these directives set the current and hard rlimits for # the child processes. Attempts to exceed them will cause the the OS to # take appropriate action. See the setrlimit(2) and signal(3). # MaxCPUPerChild 0 MaxDATAPerChild 0 MaxNOFILEPerChild 0 MaxRSSPerChild 0 MaxSTACKPerChild 0
