Bug#506763: apache2: mod_proxy does not log an error when it hits MaxClients
Package: apache2
Severity: normal
I am using apache2-mpm-prefork (2.2.3-4+etch6), with an proxy configured
like this:
<Proxy *>
Order deny,allow
Allow from all
</Proxy>
ProxyRequests Off
ProxyPass /3/ http://miepie.tilanus.com:80/3/
ProxyPassReverse /3/ http://miepie.tilanus.com:80/3/
ProxyPass /http-bind/ http://miepie.tilanus.com:5280/http-bind/
ProxyPassReverse /http-bind/ http://miepie.tilanus.com:5280/http-bind/
When the amount of connections to proxy exceeds the the amount
configured by the MaxClients directive in the apache2.conf, apache
doesn't relay the connections anymore. This happens silently. In order
to ease troubleshooting, it is desireable that apache2 also warns when
it hits the MaxClients while proxying requests.
Thanks for looking into this!
