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!

I just tested it, and indeed, after a fresh restart it does display the
"server reached MaxClients setting..." message when hitting too many
proxy requests.
Is there a configuration to make apache display this message more
regularly, e.g every 300 seconds?
Unfortunately there isn't.
You can file an enhancement request upstream. But this is not something in
which Debian will deviate from upstream. Therefore, I am closing the bug
report.
Cheers,
Stefan
