Thanks Juan for your response. Appreciate it.
But for some reason still, I am facing the same SSL handshake failed (5).
Could you please check this configuration and let me know the issue in my
ovirt engine environment.
*Configuration of Apache server:*
1) httpd version,
# httpd -v
Server version: Apache/2.4.6 (CentOS)
Server built: Oct 19 2017 20:39:16
2) I checked the status using the following command,
# systemctl status httpd -l
● httpd.service - The Apache HTTP Server
Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/httpd.service; enabled; vendor
preset: disabled)
Active: active (running) since Wed 2018-03-07 23:46:32 IST; 1min 55s ago
Docs: man:httpd(8)
man:apachectl(8)
Process: 4351 ExecStop=/bin/kill -WINCH ${MAINPID} (code=exited,
status=0/SUCCESS)
Main PID: 4359 (httpd)
Status: "Total requests: 264; Current requests/sec: 0.1; Current
traffic: 204 B/sec"
CGroup: /system.slice/httpd.service
├─4359 /usr/sbin/httpd -DFOREGROUND
├─4360 /usr/sbin/httpd -DFOREGROUND
├─4362 /usr/sbin/httpd -DFOREGROUND
├─5100 /usr/sbin/httpd -DFOREGROUND
├─5386 /usr/sbin/httpd -DFOREGROUND
├─5415 /usr/sbin/httpd -DFOREGROUND
└─5416 /usr/sbin/httpd -DFOREGROUND
3) Since the httpd is pointing to the path :
/usr/lib/systemd/system/httpd.service
vi /usr/lib/systemd/system/httpd.service
[Unit]
Description=The Apache HTTP Server
After=network.target remote-fs.target nss-lookup.target
Documentation=man:httpd(8)
Documentation=man:apachectl(8)
[Service]
Type=notify
EnvironmentFile=/etc/sysconfig/httpd
ExecStart=/usr/sbin/httpd $OPTIONS -DFOREGROUND
ExecReload=/usr/sbin/httpd $OPTIONS -k graceful
ExecStop=/bin/kill -WINCH ${MAINPID}
# We want systemd to give httpd some time to finish gracefully, but still
want
# it to kill httpd after TimeoutStopSec if something went wrong during the
# graceful stop. Normally, Systemd sends SIGTERM signal right after the
# ExecStop, which would kill httpd. We are sending useless SIGCONT here to
give
# httpd time to finish.
KillSignal=SIGCONT
PrivateTmp=true
[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target
4) As per the above command I found the env file is available
'/etc/sysconfig/httpd'
vi /etc/sysconfig/httpd
#
# This file can be used to set additional environment variables for
# the httpd process, or pass additional options to the httpd
# executable.
#
# Note: With previous versions of httpd, the MPM could be changed by
# editing an "HTTPD" variable here. With the current version, that
# variable is now ignored. The MPM is a loadable module, and the
# choice of MPM can be changed by editing the configuration file
/etc/httpd/conf.modules.d/00-mpm.conf
#
#
# To pass additional options (for instance, -D definitions) to the
# httpd binary at startup, set OPTIONS here.
#
#OPTIONS=
#
# This setting ensures the httpd process is started in the "C" locale
# by default. (Some modules will not behave correctly if
# case-sensitive string comparisons are performed in a different
# locale.)
#
LANG=C
5) As per the above command, I found that the conf fileis available in the
path : /etc/httpd/conf.modules.d/00-mpm.conf
vi /etc/httpd/conf.modules.d/00-mpm.conf
# Select the MPM module which should be used by uncommenting exactly
# one of the following LoadModule lines:
# prefork MPM: Implements a non-threaded, pre-forking web server
# See: http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/mod/prefork.html
#LoadModule mpm_prefork_module modules/mod_mpm_prefork.so
# worker MPM: Multi-Processing Module implementing a hybrid
# multi-threaded multi-process web server
# See: http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/mod/worker.html
#
LoadModule mpm_worker_module modules/mod_mpm_worker.so
# event MPM: A variant of the worker MPM with the goal of consuming
# threads only for connections with active processing
# See: http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/mod/event.html
#
#LoadModule mpm_event_module modules/mod_mpm_event.so
<IfModule mpm_worker_module>
ServerLimit 1000
MaxRequestWorkers 1000
</IfModule>
As per your comment, I enabled the 'LoadModule mpm_worker_module
modules/mod_mpm_worker.so' with the ServerLimit and MaxRequestWorkers as
1000 still I am facing the issue for the following command in apache
benchmark test.
Completed 100 requests
SSL handshake failed (5).
SSL handshake failed (5).
SSL handshake failed (5).
SSL handshake failed (5).
SSL handshake failed (5).
SSL handshake failed (5).
NOTE : It always scales when I have concurrent request below 400
What is wrong in this apache configuration, why SSL handshake is failing
for concurrent request above 400 ?
Thanks,
Hari
