These keep appearing in my /var/log/apache2 directory. What are they? That is, when they appear, they must be appearing to tell me something (bad or good?) but I don't have a clue what that might be.
It's less a matter of whether I should keep them, but just what it is they're doing and why they were put there. Something is locked. What?? |

Well, yes, I am aware of those Apache pages, but I just don't really understand them.
In fact, those pages explain the LockFile directive, but not what the accept.lock file is. I didn't see a lot of those accept.lock files on my previous Apache 1.3, so why am I seeing a lot now?
But I guess the point is that I can just ignore them, which I guess I'm happy to do. |

Apache uses Method that to serialize multiple children accepting requests on network sockets.
Yes you can ignore that files. In a not technical correct answer: it is a hint from apache which socket to use.
Well it came with apache 2.0 so not in 1.3 |
