Re: Apache 1.3.33 on W2003 problems only on system boot

Hello, Igor.

OK, Here's long story. I'm trying to replay what I did to set
up Apache before.

Did $cygrunsrv.exe -I httpd -d "CYGWIN httpd" -p /usr/sbin/httpd -a -F
Started service. Doesn't work. Lines in error_log:

[Wed Aug 30 17:52:30 2006] [notice] Apache/1.3.33 (Cygwin) configured -- resuming normal operations
[Wed Aug 30 17:52:30 2006] [notice] Accept mutex: pthread (Default: pthread)
[Wed Aug 30 17:52:30 2006] [alert] (3)No such process: setuid: unable to change to uid: 1003
[Wed Aug 30 17:52:31 2006] [alert] Child 2920 returned a Fatal error... \nApache is exiting!

uid 1003 exists and my current uid. After some digging found out that
there's some special user needed instead of SYSTEM to run such services in 2003.

Decided to setup OpenSSH and use it's sshd_server user to run Apache.

Executed ssh-host-config, did $cygrunsrv -S sshd, checked if sshd
running and accepts connection - yes. Rebooted. Checked if sshd running.
Kinda. It's still in list of running services but doesn't accept any
connections. Messages from /var/log/sshd.log:
      5 [main] ? (3788) E:\Cygwin\usr\sbin\sshd.exe: *** fatal error - E:\Cygwin\usr\sbin\sshd.exe: *** couldn't allocate heap, Win32 error 0, base 0x6A0000, top 0x6B0000, reserve_size 61440, allocsize 65536, page_const 4096

38433345 [main] sshd 1952 fork: child -1 - died waiting for longjmp before initialization, retry 0, exit code 0x100, errno 11

Last error repeated on each connect attempt.

Then did:
$ cygrunsrv -E sshd
$ telnet localhost 22
Trying 127.0.0.1...
telnet: Unable to connect to remote host: Connection refused
$ cygrunsrv -S sshd
$ telnet localhost 22
Trying 127.0.0.1...
Connected to nowhere-vi3mfi2.
Escape character is '^]'.
Connection closed by foreign host.

Now it works. Nothing in log.

I'll stop here before proceeding to Apache because it behave exactly
the same - "couldn't allocate heap after boot", normal operation after
restarting service.

Thank you in advance !
