mod_fcgid is crashing apache windows and linux

Posted on by mario

With apache 2.3.15 I had kinda  the same issue with mod_fcgidon ubuntu 8.04 as on windows.  With -k restart or -k graceful the server did not die like on windows, but the server delivered than only a 200 OK response header, but nothing more. Switching from worker mpm to event mpm seemed to solve this, but the server died later :-/

Since it has talmost the same issues like on windows I could make a patch that fixes this. Grab the patch (patched against trunk) for the patch for 2.3.6

The bug 50309 is now longer than a year listet. Bad that none applied it yet.

vserver ubuntu IPv6 network

Posted on by mario

Since some days there is IPv6 available for my server. But I noticed it just today. Editing /etc/network/interfaces and adding a new virtual interface didn’t work at all. The /etc/init.d/networking restart just showed errors. And ifconfig venet0 wasn’t satisfying.

What works is /etc/network/interfaces just adding the loopbback

iface lo inet6 loopback
        adress ::1
        netmask 128
        gateway fe80::1

Now the trick is to add /etc/rc.local and add this before exit 0

ip addr add 2a01:238:40ab:cd12:dead:beef:dead:beef/128 dev venet0
ip route add default via fe80::1 dev venet0

Than execute /etc/rc.local
Wonder o wonder. Ifconfig works and also ping6 ipv6.example.com

Than I had to add the new ipv6 adress to my apache config

Listen [2a01:238:40ab:cd12:dead:beef:dead:beef]:80

Don’t forget a to create a symlink from rc.local to /etc/rc2.d/S21rc2.local

reverse proxy for utorrent part 2

Posted on by mario

In my last post about utorrent (µtorrent) I was frustrated that I wasn’t able to change the url from /gui/ to /tor/
Woot! In apache 2.3 which will be apache 2.4 and I think it will be released in early 2011 the proxy module is much better and there it works to have a different URL :-) Even as ALPHA or BETA version the new apache rocks a lot and runs stable. In condition with mod_fcgid it is real cool technology e.g. running PHP separated form apache that allows to run different PHP version of the server in vhosts or directories. Also running a non thread safe PHP version. Speed! IPv6 would be fine, but the offered patches are not applied to trunk :-/There is an annoying bug in mod_fcgid. I’m glad I found a fix for it (help from Tom Donovan and Sob).
