[elavarasan]

Anyone can help me that in my apache log file,

(OS 109)The pipe has been ended. : mod_fcgid: can't read from pipe, referer: http://IP Address/...
(109)Unknown error: mod_fcgid: ap_pass_brigade failed in handle_request_ipc function, referer: http://IP Address/...

I'm using windows sever 2008 R2,Apache,PHP with Mod_Fcgid

Thanks,

Which version of mod_fcgid do you use?

Is that related to a specific url? randomly?

[elavarasan]

I'm using :
mod_fcgid-2.3.6-win32-x86

and Yes it is randomly.

Thanks,

Please post your fcgid config. We might have to change some values to get it run smooth.

[elavarasan]

Ok. Here is :

In httpd.conf file

LoadModule fcgid_module modules/mod_fcgid.so
FcgidInitialEnv PHPRC "c:/php"
AddHandler fcgid-script .php
FcgidWrapper "c:/php/php-cgi.exe" .php
MaxRequestLen 25728640

Please advise do i need to change any setting or adding any values to existing configurations.

Thanks,

If your scripts run longer than 40 seconds you need to set

FcgidIOTimeout

For me it helped to increase the connect timeout from 3 to 10 seconds

FcgidConnectTimeout 10

it might also help if you replace your mod fcgid with the patch 2 version from apachelounge or the patched version from apachehaus which include 3 patched.
