I have two freshly installed machines where apache-2.0.54-r31 seg faults on every attempt to serve a page. This same ebuild wokrs fine on a long time installed machine frequently updated. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. start apache-2.0.54-r31 2. Try to access index.html 3. Actual Results: Apache seg faults with messages like the following in error_log: [Wed Sep 28 07:21:30 2005] [notice] child pid 18296 exit signal Segmentation fault (11) Expected Results: Served the requested page and not seg faulted. katsuhiro rodrigo # emerge info Portage 2.0.51.22-r2 (default-linux/x86/2005.1, gcc-3.3.6, glibc-2.3.5-r1, 2.6.11-win4lin i686) ================================================================= System uname: 2.6.11-win4lin i686 AMD Athlon(tm) XP 2200+ Gentoo Base System version 1.6.13 distcc 2.18.3 i686-pc-linux-gnu (protocols 1 and 2) (default port 3632) [enabled] dev-lang/python: 2.3.5-r2 sys-apps/sandbox: 1.2.12 sys-devel/autoconf: 2.13, 2.59-r6 sys-devel/automake: 1.4_p6, 1.5, 1.6.3, 1.7.9-r1, 1.8.5-r3, 1.9.6 sys-devel/binutils: 2.15.92.0.2-r10 sys-devel/libtool: 1.5.18-r1 virtual/os-headers: 2.6.11-r2 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="x86" AUTOCLEAN="yes" CBUILD="i686-pc-linux-gnu" CFLAGS="-O3 -march=i686 -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer" CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /usr/kde/2/share/config /usr/kde/3.4/env /usr/kde/3.4/share/config /usr/kde/3.4/shutdown /usr/kde/3/share/config /usr/lib/X11/xkb /usr/share/config /var/qmail/control" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/gconf /etc/terminfo /etc/env.d" CXXFLAGS="-O3 -march=i686 -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer" DISTDIR="/usr/portage/distfiles" FEATURES="autoconfig buildpkg distcc distlocks fixpackages sandbox sfperms strict" GENTOO_MIRRORS="http://gentoo.ccccom.com http://gentoo.mirror.sdv.fr http://distro.ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/distributions/gentoo/ http://gentoo.mirrors.pair.com/ http://gentoo.osuosl.org/" LANG="pt_BR" MAKEOPTS="-j9" PKGDIR="/usr/portage/packages" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/var/tmp" PORTDIR="/usr/portage" PORTDIR_OVERLAY="/usr/local/portage /usr/local/portage-fabrica" SYNC="rsync://rsync.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage" USE="x86 X a52 aac aalib alsa apm arts audiofile avi bitmap-fonts bzip2 bzlib cddb cdparanoia cdr crypt cups curl dga dts dvd edl eds emboss encode faac faad fam fame ffmpeg flac foomaticdb fortran gd gdbm gif gimpprint gmp gpm gstreamer gtk2 imagemagick imlib jbig jpeg jpeg2k kde kdeenablefinal lcms ldap libcaca libg++ libwww live lzo mad matroska md5sum mikmod mjpeg mng motif mp3 mpeg mysql ncurses nls ogg oggvorbis opengl oss pam pdflib perl png postgres ppds python qt quicktime readline real ruby samba scanner sdl speex spell ssl svg svga tcpd tga theora tiff truetype truetype-fonts type1-fonts unicode vcd vorbis win32codecs wmf xine xinerama xml2 xmms xv xvid xvmc zlib userland_GNU kernel_linux elibc_glibc" Unset: ASFLAGS, CTARGET, LC_ALL, LDFLAGS, LINGUAS
After seeing bug #90737 I tried recompiling apache with more conservative CFLAGS (-O2 -pipe -march=i686). I tried it despite the fact that my other machine has apache working fine with more agressive CFLAGS. Well sadly the problem remained. Here is the emerge info for this new compile: katsuhiro rodrigo # emerge info Portage 2.0.51.22-r2 (default-linux/x86/2005.1, gcc-3.3.6, glibc-2.3.5-r1, 2.6.11-win4lin i686) ================================================================= System uname: 2.6.11-win4lin i686 AMD Athlon(tm) XP 2200+ Gentoo Base System version 1.6.13 distcc 2.18.3 i686-pc-linux-gnu (protocols 1 and 2) (default port 3632) [enabled] dev-lang/python: 2.3.5-r2 sys-apps/sandbox: 1.2.12 sys-devel/autoconf: 2.13, 2.59-r6 sys-devel/automake: 1.4_p6, 1.5, 1.6.3, 1.7.9-r1, 1.8.5-r3, 1.9.6 sys-devel/binutils: 2.15.92.0.2-r10 sys-devel/libtool: 1.5.18-r1 virtual/os-headers: 2.6.11-r2 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="x86" AUTOCLEAN="yes" CBUILD="i686-pc-linux-gnu" CFLAGS="-O2 -march=i686 -pipe" CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /usr/kde/2/share/config /usr/kde/3.4/env /usr/kde/3.4/share/config /usr/kde/3.4/shutdown /usr/kde/3/share/config /usr/lib/X11/xkb /usr/share/config /var/qmail/control" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/gconf /etc/terminfo /etc/env.d" CXXFLAGS="-O2 -march=i686 -pipe" DISTDIR="/usr/portage/distfiles" FEATURES="autoconfig buildpkg distcc distlocks fixpackages sandbox sfperms strict" GENTOO_MIRRORS="http://gentoo.ccccom.com http://gentoo.mirror.sdv.fr http://distro.ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/distributions/gentoo/ http://gentoo.mirrors.pair.com/ http://gentoo.osuosl.org/" LANG="pt_BR" MAKEOPTS="-j9" PKGDIR="/usr/portage/packages" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/var/tmp" PORTDIR="/usr/portage" PORTDIR_OVERLAY="/usr/local/portage /usr/local/portage-fabrica" SYNC="rsync://rsync.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage" USE="x86 X a52 aac aalib alsa apm arts audiofile avi bitmap-fonts bzip2 bzlib cddb cdparanoia cdr crypt cups curl dga dts dvd edl eds emboss encode faac faad fam fame ffmpeg flac foomaticdb fortran gd gdbm gif gimpprint gmp gpm gstreamer gtk2 imagemagick imlib jbig jpeg jpeg2k kde kdeenablefinal lcms ldap libcaca libg++ libwww live lzo mad matroska md5sum mikmod mjpeg mng motif mp3 mpeg mysql ncurses nls ogg oggvorbis opengl oss pam pdflib perl png postgres ppds python qt quicktime readline real ruby samba scanner sdl speex spell ssl svg svga tcpd tga theora tiff truetype truetype-fonts type1-fonts unicode vcd vorbis win32codecs wmf xine xinerama xml2 xmms xv xvid xvmc zlib userland_GNU kernel_linux elibc_glibc" Unset: ASFLAGS, CTARGET, LC_ALL, LDFLAGS, LINGUAS Any ideas?
Please see if rebuilding apr, apr-util, apache, and then all of your add-on modules solves the problem for you. Detailed instructions here: http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/apache-troubleshooting.xml. If you can't get that to work, please provide a strace and/or backtrace of the segfault. Do so by starting apache like so: (${APACHE2_OPTS} should be whatever you have for that variable in /etc/conf.d/apache2 strace /usr/sbin/apache2 -X ${APACHE2_OPTS} (do similiar with gdb for a backtrace) Thanks!
The procedures described in http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/apache-troubleshooting.xml fixed this issue. I believe this bug can be closed. Thanks for your attention and help.
