Topic: Apache server is restarted time to time (Release 2.4.10)

[senlog80]

Hello,

I am using Apache release 2.4.10 in Windows Server 2008. Time to time the Apache server is getting restarted.
The service is unavailable for 3-5 minutes and after that the service is started up automatically. This issue occurs frequently. twice a day, two days once etc..

But the Apache release 2.2.25 is working fine in our environment.

Apache Error.log is recorded with following details

"Cannot serve directory D:/8770/Client/Help/: No matching DirectoryIndex (index.php) found, and server-generated directory index forbidden by Options directive"

[Tue Apr 28 09: 24: 08.138835 2015] [mpm_winnt: warn] [pid 13308: 3024 tid] (OS 64) The specified network name is no longer available. : AH00341: winnt_accept: Asynchronous AcceptEx failed.

For the above issue, I tried the following in the httpd.conf file
AcceptFilter https none
AcceptFilter http none
EnableSendfile Off
EnableMMAP off
But it is not working.

The scenario seems to be the issue discussed in the topic "http://www.apachelounge.com/viewtopic.php?t=4543" where they face the issue with APR 1.4.5 and 1.4.6.

Any help is highly appreciated.

That issue is not anymore.

Advised to upgrade to 2.4.16. Just copy over, except you .conf files.

AcceptFilter http none
AcceptFilter https none
EnableSendfile off
EnableMMAP off

Should avoid AcceptEx failed.

Thanks for the update.
I have checked the release 2.4.12, the issue is present.

Anyways, I will check with 2.4.16 in the environment and update ASAP.

Sorry for the late reply.
The scenario has to be checked in our customer environment. Still we don't get the customer agreement to install the latest update (2.4.16).
Once the update is done, I will update the status.

Thanks

Apache release 2.4.16 with Microsoft Visual C++ 2015 Redistributable is working fine. The customer didn't face the restarting problem.

Thanks a lot for your help.
