I was having this issue, or at least the one in the Server Fault topic linked near the top - e.g .I was getting this with SVN over HTTPS w/ BASIC Auth.
I had been able to work around it by setting MaxRequestsPerChild to some lowish number like 150, as it had been affecting me intermittently. Yesterday evening ( July 21, 2010 ) I ran some updates yesterday , and the problem got a whole lot worse - it was happening on every single request. I ended up disabling all the modules I didn't actually have to have; after turning off mod_status the problem seems to have gone away. I did disable a number of other modules first, but turning off mod_status seems to be the key. I probably won't have too much time to experiment with configurations, but maybe someone with more in depth understanding of Apache2 internals can find the issue. P.S. My configuration is: Lucid, on a 32 bit EC2 AMI (small), running on an EBS boot disk (the image from alestic.com). -- ssl "error reading the headers" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/595116 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
