A client has been running Apache under FreeBSD for a while, and now suddenly the following problems happen: 1. httpd takes a LONG time (in excess of 10 minutes) to configure itself. 2. every hit yields an error of this type in error_log: [Fri Sep 20 15:03:08 1996] httpd: caught SIGSEGV, dumping core and of this type in /var/log/messages: Sep 20 15:08:46 otny /kernel: pid 299: httpd: uid 65534: exited on signal 6 Despite the 'dumping core,' no core files can be found on the system. The problems seem *not* to occur if there is 1 and only 1 VirtualHost, but this system was running fine with half a dozen VirtualHosts only a week ago. I made sure that all the IP addresses, aliases, and DNS files were correct. The problem occurs with Apache 1.0.2 and with Apache 1.1.1. I have exhausted all the things I could think of. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
