问题
At some point my site, running on Apache2 with mod_wsgi just stops processing requests. The connection to server is maintained and client waits for responce, but it never is returned by apache. The server at this time is at 0% CPU, and nothing is processing. I think, apache just sends request to queue and never gets them out of there.
When I perform apache2ctl graceful the problem does not resolve. Only after apache2ctl restart.
My site is a 4 instance wsgi application of Pyramid and 2 instances of Zope 3. It is running normaly and does not have speed problems, that I am aware of.
versions: Ubuntu 10.04 apache2 2.2.14-5ubuntu8.9 libapache2-mod-wsgi 2.8-2ubuntu1
回答1:
Sounds like you are using embedded mode to run the multiple applications and you are using third party C extensions that have problems in sub interpreters, resulting in potential deadlock. Else your code is internally deadlocking or blocking on external services and never returning, causing exhaustion of available processes/threads.
For a start, you should look at using daemon mode and delegate each web application to a distinct daemon process group and then forcing each to run in the main interpreter.
See:

Otherwise use debugging tips described in:
http://code.google.com/p/modwsgi/wiki/DebuggingTechniques
for getting stack traces about what application is doing.
