apache crash

[Paolo Cavallini]

Hi all.
We're having problems with our mpaserver+pmapper apps.

I do several repeated requests for a pmapper page using wget
with a command like:

wget --load-cookies cookie.txt \
'http://192.168.0.10/pmapper/parco_pi/load.php?&groups=Pisa+Lucca+DTM'

Sometimes the request fails with a timeout:

<b>Fatal error</b>:  Maximum execution time of 30 seconds
exceeded in
<b>/home/Documenti/pub/pmapper/parco_pi/incphp/map.php</b> on
line <b>270</b><br />

I straced the final part of the Apache process, it seems that it
is locked in a loop. See the attachment.

Other times the request for a pmapper page crashes the Apache
server, in this case wget exits with:

Connecting to 192.168.0.10:80... connected.
HTTP request sent, awaiting response... No data received.

Into the Apache log I read:

[Fri Dec 16 15:56:16 2005] [notice] child pid 1348 exit signal
Segmentation fault (11)

Unfortunately in the last case the process dies too quickly
to let me to strace it.

Does anybody have a hint on how to solve this?
All the best.
