Bug#240961: apache segfaults on start
Package: apache
Version: 1.3.29.0.2-4
Severity: normal
Upon starting apache, both the init script and apachectl will report
successfully starting the server. However, none have started. If I
strace -f apachectl start, it turns out that the server is segfaulting.
stat64("/dev/urandom", {st_mode=S_IFCHR|0666, st_rdev=makedev(1, 9),
...}) = 0
--- SIGSEGV (Segmentation fault) @ 0 (0) ---
Process 11374 detached
There was a bug where someone else encountered a SEGV (#230539) caused
by recursively including the config files. I purged all of my config
files and clean installed the package, and the problem persists.
I have had this problem occur for the past few months, and it has
happened on 2.4.21-xfs and 2.4.23-xfs.
Thanks,
David
