listenbacklog directive not working in apache2.2
- by andrés
I was trying to make apache 2.2 reject connections if MaxClients was reached, to do this I found the directive ListenBacklog.To test it, I configured apache in the following way:
<IfModule mpm_prefork_module>
StartServers 5
MinSpareServers 5
MaxSpareServers 10
MaxClients 10
ListenBacklog 1
MaxRequestsPerChild 0
</IfModule>
I've made a little script in JMeter to test this. The test launchs 50 users in 1 second (it requests a phpinfo page) but none is rejected, they all wait!
I don't understand how this directive works...
my operating system is Ubuntu.
