System Details:

OS: Windows Server 2016
Apache Version: Apache 2.4.54
OpenSSL Version: 1.1.1i
PHP Version: 7.4.27
Application: Laravel Framework (Running via laragon on windows server 2016)

-My Apache server keeps restarting or shutting down unexpectedly while running a Laravel application.
-It shows "child process exited with status 3221226356".
-I’m using Laragon for development and deploying it on Windows Server 2016.

Could this be related to memory exhaustion, PHP errors, or conflicts with my Laravel app?

My Laravel application runs fine on a local development machine without crashes.
This error have a multiple times a day

Hi,

In httpd.conf:
Code:
# ThreadStackSize: sets the size of the stack (for autodata)
# of threads which handle client connections and call modules to help process
# those connections. In most cases the operating system default for stack size
# is reasonable, but there are some conditions where it may need to be adjusted.
# Apache httpd may crash when using some third-party modules which use a
# relatively large amount of autodata storage or automatically restart with
# message like: child process 12345 exited with status 3221225725 -- Restarting.
# This type of crash is resolved by setting ThreadStackSize to a value higher
# than the operating system default.
ThreadStackSize 8388608

Verify also:
Code:
# AcceptFilter: On Windows, none uses accept() rather than AcceptEx() and
# will not recycle sockets between connections. This is useful for network
# adapters with broken driver support, as well as some virtual network
# providers such as vpn drivers, or spam, virus or spyware filters.
AcceptFilter http none
AcceptFilter https none

I have already increased the ThreadStackSize in my httpd.conf file to a higher value, such as 999999999 , and restarted the Apache server to apply the changes. However, the server is still crashing, and I continue to experience the same issue. I have checked the error logs, but I’m not sure what else might be causing this problem. I have also verified the AcceptFilter settings by setting both http and https to none to rule out any conflicts with the network adapter. Despite these changes, the issue persists. I’m looking for additional suggestions or guidance on what I should check or adjust next

thank you

Code:
<IfModule mpm_winnt_module>
    ThreadStackSize   999999999
    ThreadsPerChild   5000
</IfModule>


in this module i'm set. this is a true or not

That error 3221226356 is a problem within PHP. it is recommended to switch to mod_fcgid. See https://www.apachelounge.com/viewtopic.php?t=2394

or you may enable the PHP error log and check what module is crashing and disable it.

I'm not saying your wrong about being a PHP problem; I am just saying I have been running PHP as a module since 2005 on windows.

Code:

Are you using the Thread safe version of PHP?

I have no idea what "Laravel Framework" is, but searching I found this also.
https://bz.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=41847

Anyways this is what I have;
Code:
<IfModule mpm_winnt_module>
    ThreadStackSize  8388608
    ThreadsPerChild      15000
    ThreadLimit          15000
    MaxConnectionsPerChild   0
</IfModule>


I would adjust your Loglevel directive to LogLevel debug. See if you see anything.[/code]

Hi,

If you use a value for ThreadsPerChild that is greater than the default value for ThhreadLimit, you must also set ThreadLimit to the value for ThreadsPerChild.

The default value for ThreadLimit is 1920 when used with mpm_winnt and 64 when used with the others.

See Apache documentation:
https://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/en/mod/mpm_common.html#threadlimit
