Topic: windows (os)warn

[Bruce]

Hi I have been getting os warning,s when accessing from a computer out side
my local the warning are in the error logs
(os 121)The semaphore time out period has expired :wint_accept: asynchronous AcceptEx failed
(os64)the specified network is no longer available :wint_accept:asynchronous
AcceptEx failed
I have tried disabling acceptEx after doing this the network was lost completely and I had to unintsall and install the apache again to get the network back but still get the os warning,s what should I try next to solve this problem

[James Blond]

Add this to your httpd.conf

[Bruce]

After disabling AcceptEx I am getting a error mes. in my windows logs in the application logs event 3299 is this normal or has the disabling not worked out right it says disabled when I start the apache as notice in the apache error logs I have looked for more info. on event 3299 but could fined nothing more
than it refers to AcceptEx being disabled

[James Blond]

I googled a bit for event ID 3299. Seems that a modul could not be load. Can you copy the full error message? That would help to solve it.

If realy al setups fail, please follow this setup

error date time Apache service event 3299
The Apache service named reported the following error disabled use of AcceptEx() Winsock 2 API this is in the windows event viewer

It says the same in the apache error logs when starting as a notice

[James Blond]

stop your service and start apache from the console

[Bruce]

from the Apache wintty console pipe commands dont work not the -k start
not httpd -e debug -t or all combinations did not work worked it only will start from apache monitor or the apache icon I have express C++ can it be debug with that if so how to do that

[Bruce]

I have attached the express C++ debug to the apache exe will that do for debugging and do I have to leave the express studio running for the debug to keep debugging or will it keep debugging after exiting the studio

[James Blond]

Where did you download your apache or did you compile it yourself?

[Bruce]

apache.org mis installer windows xp home with visual studio package but the debug from it did not pan out it keeps saying no symbols loaded and that there is no debugging info. yet the apache works good on my local I have Zone Alarm fire wall with bug and virus sifting witch is most likely affecting the acceptEx have been trying to get public access for some time now but still have not got the bugs worked out of it but I shall keep trying untill I get it all working dont matter how long it takes

[James Blond]

Turn off all firewalls also windows firewall and try again. Many firewalls blocks apache.

[Bruce]

Have there been problems with the windows sp2 fire wall as I dont want leave Both fire walls of for long time and dont have a second terminal to run the test untill my brother is av.I have switched to that and turned of Zone Alarm to see what happens should I remove the disable acceptEx and use acceptEx with window sp2 fire wall

[Bruce]

Hi if I wanted to fined the winnt-accept module or config files where mite I look for it I can only find mpm file but not the winnt_accept or AcceptEx
accept in the mpm file

[James Blond]

The clue is that there is no winnt_accect or AcceptEx in any config file over the world It is compiled into apache. See in the offical docs for that

http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/mpm_winnt.html

If we shall help you, please follow the instructions.


put again this into httpd.conf

EnableMMAP off
EnableSendfile off
Win32DisableAcceptEx


start apache with

httpd -e debug -t

and post the output from that.


or start over with

ps disregard last post I found out how to make command promt work with apache

[James Blond]

[Bruce]

could it bee blocked by my isp adsl server what would be your suggestion for some ports to try rather than prot 80 as for test without fire wall will be dun after new year I think I will switch server modules to the httpd-2.2.3-win32x86-ssl from Apache lounge is it ok to install both Apache at the same time
thank you for all the help Bruce


Just ran the command promt and the Apache restarted with no fire walls got the same reply as with the fire walls tried both windows sp2 and Zone Alarm got same reply as the rest
