[Mono-list] apache terminating mod_mono?

[Mike Glenn]

 OK some digging and debugging turned up this:

If no apache MonoUnixSocket flag is defined in the config then the server tries
to load:

[Fri Sep 01 13:44:54 2006] [warn] Socket file name /tmp/mod_mono_server_global


Where as the man page for mod-mono-server says:
 --filename file (mod-mono-server only)
              The unix socket file name to listen on.  Default value:
/tmp/mod_mono_server

and mod_mono.c has:

MAKE_CMD12 (MonoUnixSocket, filename,
	"Named pipe file name. Mutually exclusive with MonoListenPort. "
	"Default: /tmp/mod_mono_server"
	)


I had added this line to the apache config because I was apache/mod_mono were
not communicating with mod-mono-server:
MonoUnixSocket default /tmp/mod_mono_server

this seems to have caused mod_mono.so to think there where two instances of
mod-mono-server/xsp running.
One that was set to MonoRunXSP False and one that was true. I added some
debugging lines to mod_mono.c and heres what I got in the terminate loop:

static apr_status_t
terminate_xsp2 (void *data, char *alias)
{
  /* alias may be NULL to terminate all XSPs */
  server_rec *server;
  module_cfg *config;
  apr_socket_t *sock;
  apr_status_t rv;
  char *termstr = "";
  xsp_data *xsp;
  int i;

  DEBUG_PRINT (0, "Terminate XSP");
  server = (server_rec *) data;
  config = ap_get_module_config (server->module_config, &mono_module);

  for (i = 0; i < config->nservers; i++) {
    xsp = &config->servers [i];
    DEBUG_PRINT (0, "XSP Setting: %s", xsp->run_xsp);
    if (xsp->run_xsp && !strcasecmp (xsp->run_xsp, "false"))
      continue;
...snip...

[Fri Sep 01 13:40:28 2006] [notice] caught SIGTERM, shutting down
[Fri Sep 01 13:40:28 2006] [warn] Terminate XSP
[Fri Sep 01 13:40:28 2006] [warn] XSP Setting: False
[Fri Sep 01 13:40:28 2006] [warn] XSP Setting: True
[Fri Sep 01 13:40:28 2006] [warn] Socket file name /tmp/mod_mono_server
[Fri Sep 01 13:40:28 2006] [warn] try_connect: 0


So in the end I changed mod-mono-server --filename /tmp/mod_mono_server_global
and now things are working again as expected. But it seems that the defaults are
not what the use to be or that the docs need updated.
