Apache hangs with PHPrunner applications

PHPRunner General questions

I have PHPrunner applications that generally work just fine. However, every too often I receive an error related probably to my environment rather than PHPrunner itself. Totally randomly the application hangs waiting for the web server. Then after several minutes I receive the following:
"No Response from Application Web Server

There was no response from the application web server for the page you requested.

Please notify the site's webmaster and try your request again later. "
My environment is

  • Linux server
  • Oracle-Application-Server-10g/9.0.4.2.0 Oracle-HTTP-Server (with Apache 1.* packaged in)
  • PHP Version 4.4.7
  • PHPrunner 4.2
    I never see this problem in my development environment (my local PC with "standard" Apache). PHPrunner does the deployment on my local PC (also aliases in the httpd.conf), on the server I just copy the output-directory onto the server. PHP applications can be quite big or very small - no difference. Also, deployed Java applications continue running normally and the server is otherwise working fine.
    Anybody any advise? Similar experiences? Thanks in advance!

I would say Apache 1.x is a fairly old piece of software. I would suggest upgrading to Apache 2.x. Another thing you may want to try - install PHP 5.

Yes. I know this but for the time being it is not possible.
I have my strongest doubts about the old Apache, which is an Oracle bundle. I was just wondering if anybody has faced the same problems and found a workaround.

Check the apache logs access and error, also, try running apache in non daemon mode and see if that sheds any more light on it?

Replying to my own question :-)
Could not find any solution in the old environment. Now I've been two weeks in an upgraded environment with Apache 2.2.8 and PHP 5.2.6 WITHOUT these problems.
