I have tried all the ebuilds for mod_perl 1.99 that I can get to function all with the same issue. I have also modified an ebuild and attempted 1.99.13. Same thing. When using mod_perl 1.99.11 with apache2 2.0.48-r1 (tried r4 as well) and apache2 2.0.49 apache2 will take a very lengthy amount of time to start and stop. /etc/init.d/apache start|stop|restart etc This can be up to a few min or up to an hour. Strace of strace /usr/sbin/apache2 -X -D PERL lstat64("/usr/lib/apache2/conf/vhosts/vhosts.conf", {st_mode=S_IFREG|0644, st_size=1695, ...}) = 0 open("/usr/lib/apache2/conf/vhosts/vhosts.conf", O_RDONLY) = 4 fstat64(4, {st_mode=S_IFREG|0644, st_size=1695, ...}) = 0 read(4, "################# vhosts.conf\n#T"..., 4096) = 1695 read(4, "", 4096) = 0 close(4) = 0 read(3, "", 4096) = 0 close(3) = 0 stat64("/usr/sbin/suexec2", {st_mode=S_IFREG|S_ISUID|0710, st_size=11268, ...}) = 0 open("/dev/random", O_RDONLY) = 3 read(3, FREEZES above at read(3, then continues on after a LONG period of time: "E\356", 2) = 2 close(3) = 0 open("/dev/random", O_RDONLY) = 3 read(3, "\200,\\\250C\271", 6) = 6 close(3) = 0 gettimeofday({1080070223, 58237}, NULL) = 0 stat64("/var/www/localhost/htdocs", {st_mode=S_IFDIR|0755, st_size=4096, ...}) = 0 socket(PF_INET6, SOCK_STREAM, 0) = -1 EAFNOSUPPORT (Address family not supported by protocol) socket(PF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, IPPROTO_IP) = 3 getpid() = 31826 stat64("/var/www/localhost/htdocs", {st_mode=S_IFDIR|0755, st_size=4096, ...}) = 0 stat64("/usr/lib/apache2/conf/ssl/server.crt", {st_mode=S_IFREG|0400, st_size=782, ...}) = 0 stat64("/usr/lib/apache2/conf/ssl/server.key", {st_mode=S_IFREG|0400, st_size=887, ...}) = 0 socket(PF_UNIX, SOCK_STREAM, 0) = 4 connect(4, {sa_family=AF_UNIX, path="/var/run/.nscd_socket"}, 110) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) Works after that very long wait. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.install mod_perl 1.99.11 with apache 2.0.48-r1 2. enabled perl in /etc/conf.d/apache2 -D PERL 3. /etc/init.d/apache2 start Then wait and wait and wait Actual Results: waited up to 1 hour then apache2 server started and performed as expected Expected Results: apache2 should have started up within a few seconds instead of the 1 hour wait. This also effects server shutdown using the /etc/init.d/apache2 script.
