Apache stops responding

[brianm]

I have had a centos 6.X box serving web pages for some time....recently apache stops responding to page requests.

If I stop Apache and then start Apache it will serve pages for a few times(seconds) and then dies...I see nothing in error logs but really not sure what I need to be looking for.

On some occasions it may work for a day or and hour.

How can I narrow down what is going on?

All my requests are from within the local area network.

pinging the domain name always works.

Error on page : connection has timed out.

Browsers tried firefox and ie.

Let me start there. Tell me if you need to see more information, I will get what you need.

thank you.

Hi,

At first check your logs:
apach - /var/log/httpd/
SELinux
/var/log/audit/audit.log
/var/log/secure
System
/var/log/messages

Check firewall - default that iptables.

Somewhere should be errors...

When your site is down, httpd service down too?

Maybe that is infinite loop in the code...
