Hi. I have a leak somewhere and I'm trying to find it using Apache2::Status. Individual usage of memory in the packages and functions doesn't grow, and I'm unable to use the "memory usage" of Apache2::Status, so I can see further.
Any hint about solving this issue with Apache2::Status or finding the leak with another tool will be very appreciated. I also tried unsuccessfully to use Apache::VMonitor. I asked about it a couple of weeks ago in this list. I'm able to reach Memory Usage for packages, and I inspected each one (I made a quick perl LWP script). I didn't find any increases of used memory in the packages, though the httpd process grows and grows at each request. I get this with Gtop: Process 19994 start 100reqs 100reqsmore shared: 11656 11656 11656 size: 33892 54140 73804 rss: 27756 40456 52316 So I'm trying to use Apache2::Status "Memory Usage", but It won't work with my MP2, look: I see this in the logs when I try to load the page: Can't call method "script_name" on an undefined value at /usr/local/web21/perl/lib/site_perl/5.8.7/i686-linux/B/TerseSize.pm line 629 I found it comes from Apache2::Status 121, I added the $qs parameter there: if (defined &$sub) { $r->print(@{ &{$sub}($r,$qs) }); ^^^ As expected, it didn't work, now I see: Can't locate object method "script_name" via package "status_memory_usage" (perhaps you forgot to load "status_memory_usage"?) at /usr/local/web21/perl/lib/site_perl/5.8.7/i686-linux/B/TerseSize.pm line 629 So it looks like $qs isn't an object, I tried to use it as a string in B/TerseSize.pm, line 620: my $script = $q;#->script_name; now it just segfaults child pid 21576 exit signal Segmentation fault (11). My environment is a debian stable server with perl, apache, and modperl built from source: httpd-2.0.55 perl-5.8.7 mod_perl-2.0.2 libapreq2-2.06-dev kernel-2.6.8 thank you
