This has been asked and answered before https://stackoverflow.com/a/12686252/219116 but, the solution there is not working for me.
mod_fcgid config
<IfModule mod_fcgid.c>
AddHandler fcgid-script .fcgi
FcgidIPCDir /var/run/mod_fcgid/
FcgidProcessTableFile /var/run/mod_fcgid/fcgid_shm
FcgidIdleTimeout 60
FcgidProcessLifeTime 120
FcgidMaxRequestsPerProcess 500
FcgidMaxProcesses 150
FcgidMaxProcessesPerClass 144
FcgidMinProcessesPerClass 0
FcgidConnectTimeout 30
FcgidIOTimeout 600
FcgidIdleScanInterval 10
FcgidMaxRequestLen 269484032
</IfModule>
php-cgi script
#!/bin/bassh
export PHPRC=/var/www/vhosts/example.com/etc/
export PHP_FCGI_MAX_REQUESTS=5000
exec /usr/bin/php-cgi
System details
So my FcgidMaxRequestsPerProcess is set to 500 and my PHP_FCGI_MAX_REQUESTS is set to 10x that as suggested in the previous answers and the Apache documentation. And yet I still get these errors
[Thu Nov 19 18:16:48.197238 2015] [fcgid:warn] [pid 6468:tid 139726677858048]
(32)Broken pipe: [client X.X.X.X:41098] mod_fcgid: ap_pass_brigade failed in handle_request_ipc function
The warning has nothing to do with any of the Fcgidxxx
options and is simply caused by client's closing their side of the connection before the server gets a chance to respond.
From the actual source:
/* Now pass any remaining response body data to output filters */
if ((rv = ap_pass_brigade(r->output_filters, brigade_stdout)) != APR_SUCCESS) {
if (!APR_STATUS_IS_ECONNABORTED(rv)) {
ap_log_rerror(APLOG_MARK, APLOG_WARNING, rv, r,
"mod_fcgid: ap_pass_brigade failed in "
"handle_request_ipc function");
}
return HTTP_INTERNAL_SERVER_ERROR;
}
