[rt-users] FastCGI: continual process regeneration

[Julian C. Dunn]

I have a RT installation where the FastCGI children have been observed to 
be dying and restarting themselves very rapidly, e.g.

[Sun Jul 31 00:28:57 2005] [warn] FastCGI: server 
"/usr/local/rt3/bin/mason_handler.fcgi" (pid 23631) terminated by calling 
exit with status '0'
[Sun Jul 31 00:28:57 2005] [warn] FastCGI: server 
"/usr/local/rt3/bin/mason_handler.fcgi" restarted (pid 23642)
[Sun Jul 31 00:29:08 2005] [warn] FastCGI: server 
"/usr/local/rt3/bin/mason_handler.fcgi" (pid 23634) terminated by calling 
exit with status '0'
[Sun Jul 31 00:29:08 2005] [warn] FastCGI: server 
"/usr/local/rt3/bin/mason_handler.fcgi" has remained running for more than 
30 seconds, its restart interval has been restored to 5 seconds
[Sun Jul 31 00:29:08 2005] [warn] FastCGI: server 
"/usr/local/rt3/bin/mason_handler.fcgi" restarted (pid 23644)


Although RT still "works" (functionally) this keeps the system load at 4.

Is there any way to fix or diagnose this? I have turned up RT's own 
debugging to "debug" but nothing particularly weird shows up.

The version of Perl on the system is:

This is perl, v5.8.5 built for i386-freebsd-thread-multi-64int

Would the threaded Perl have anything to do with it?
