I have windows os ..
My server sometimes will run and stay at 99% CPU and the server wont server any pages at this time..
i checked the error logs and found this..

I have raised the ThreadsPerChild in the httpd.mem.conf file to 100 what else can i do? Iam doing this right?

Look at the thread on the top of page 4.

* My CPU load is with the Apache almost by 99%
Please, enable following line = > # Win32DisableAcceptEx in the /xampp/Apache/conf/httpd.conf.

In this case correct is: Win32DisableAcceptEx

The newer Apache versions have been an improved Winsock 2 support. But it does not work correctly with the Windows home versions. The statement "Win32DisableAcceptEx" in the httpd.conf deactivate this support. Sometimes, some Windows NT systems make trouble too. We do not know why.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Implement this at the end of the conf file.

# Win32DisableAcceptEx --> /xampp/Apache/conf/httpd.conf

Think this helped me.

Thank you .. I Added this to line 66 or sumthing like that .. where exatly do i put this??

I put it in the end of the file. Dont know if it works, but it seems like that. Haven`t had the problem after adding that line.

OK Im trying this again .. put this code at the end of my httpd.conf file

Code: Select all

# Note: The following must must be present to support
#       starting without SSL on platforms with no /dev/random equivalent
#       but a statically compiled-in mod_ssl.
#
<IfModule ssl_module>
SSLRandomSeed startup builtin
SSLRandomSeed connect builtin
</IfModule>
# Win32DisableAcceptEx


is this where i put it and how its done?

I have done this and it still freezes .. any one on this forum who knows how to fix this and knows what there talking about ??

try removing the # from # Win32DisableAcceptEx
