RE: having problem serving multitude virtualhosts
Instead of a single file, log to a single process, which can handle any
variety of situations.
For instance, it could cache 100 hits to each virtual server before it
rights to the log, and it also flushes to disk when the server produces
error log output.

Subject: having problem serving multitude virtualhosts
Hi!
I am thinking of serving some hundreds virtualhosts
each with separate log and errorlog on PC having 768 MB RAM and 2 GB swap
using Debian Woody and debian package kernel 2.4.18.
>From some point apache didnt start, giving error like
Too many open files: unable to open a file descriptor above 15, you may need
to increase the number of descriptors
Obviously it helped to insert into the /etc/init.d/apache
ulimit -S -n 8192
And after some time we discovered that CGI scripts started to behave
strangely, giving only headers or just hanging. Anyway, in the errorlog was
different message
[Sat Jan 4 21:49:08 2003] [warn] send body: filedescriptor (1137) larger
than FD_SETSIZE (1024) found, you probably need to rebuild Apache with a
larger FD_SETSIZE
I searched the web and found out one recommendation of compiling apache with
rised DF_SETSIZE. So i added in the debian/rules the following value to the
CONFLAGS
-DFD_SETSIZE=4096
And while building deb source package i recieved those warnings
gcc -c -I../os/unix -I../include -DLINUX=22 -DTARGET=\"apache\"
-I/usr/include/db1 -DDEV_RANDOM=/dev/random -DUSE_HSREGEX
-D_LARGEFILE_SOURCE -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 -O1 -DFD_SETSIZE=4096 `../apaci`
ap_slack.c In file included from /usr/include/sys/types.h:215,
from ../include/ap_config.h:86,
from ../include/httpd.h:72,
from ap_slack.c:67:
/usr/include/sys/select.h:77: warning: `FD_SETSIZE' redefined
*Initialization*:1: warning: this is the location of the previous definition
At the beginnging it seemed, these manipulations have taken care of the
problem, but before too long i noticed the same FD_SETSIZE warnings again.
Please, could you give me some advice what to do besides to distribute
virtual hosts between to servers :)
Also, i found hints from the internet that changing FD_SETSIZE aint easy
matter and actually one needs to change it systemwide?
Searching lists around httpd.apache.org i found a suggestion of writing all
logs into one place (pipe?) and sepatating them afterwards. Althought it
could be somewhat solution, is there some other (preferrably counfigurable)
way of doing it?
Best Regards, Imre Oolberg
