Apache ServerLimit Warning
| Posted by fabin, 05-01-2009, 04:25 AM |
| I have been seeing this error in my apache error log for a while
Any idea, why apache give out this warning, when its configured as "ServerLimit 1024" in httpd.conf

| Hi
Open up your httpd.conf and do a search for ServerLimit and you'll find its set to 10, you need to increase this.
10 seems very low, and its well below the default value (256)
Thanks
* correction, remove that serverLimit from within the prefork and add it outside of your prefork statement.

| Did you just make the change? Have you restarted the service?

| I'm not sure why nowiresltd told to add "ServerLimit 1024" outside prefork. When its added outside prefork, it will display the below error.
Its taking the default value of 256 for ServerLimit when added outside of prefork.

| I believe ServerLimit has a limit of 256 in Apache 2, and you need to recompile prefork.c to change this.

| No one really answered to my real question.
Even though, I'm setting ServerLimit as 1024, apache uses 10 as ServerLimit...

| Have you checked the error log?

| Is it possible that you update the wrong httpd.conf file?

| It sounds like you may have multiple entries in your conf, some inside the prefork block, some outside, or you are overlooking them in an include file perhaps?
