Apache2 - where to set maxclients?

[dako1312]

Hello,

i am using Plesk 12 / Ubuntu 14.04

in PLESK 11 i could set maxclients, ServerLimit ..... in /etc/apache2/apache2.conf
but i cannot find these settings in apache2.conf.

Where to configure these settings, in which file?


thanks ahead

best regards

Dave

On my test Plesk 12 server I see:

# grep MaxClients /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf
# ServerLimit: maximum value for MaxClients for the lifetime of the server
# MaxClients: maximum number of server processes allowed to start
MaxClients 10
# MaxClients: maximum number of simultaneous client connections
MaxClients 10

On my test Plesk 12 server I see:
# grep MaxClients /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf

I dont have that file on my server. But i found /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/mpm_prefork.conf

the content:

<IfModule mpm_prefork_module>
        StartServers                     5
        MinSpareServers           5
        MaxSpareServers          10
        MaxRequestWorkers         150
        MaxConnectionsPerChild   0
</IfModule>

I think "MaxRequestWorkers" is the same like "MaxClients" ???

I see on my Debian Plesk 12 server:

# grep MaxClients /etc/apache2/apache2.conf
# MaxClients: maximum number of server processes allowed to start
MaxClients 10
# MaxClients: maximum number of simultaneous client connections
MaxClients 10
# MaxClients: maximum number of simultaneous client connections
MaxClients 10

# cat /usr/local/psa/version
11.5.30 Debian 6.0 115140407.17

root@server:/etc/apache2# ls -lar | grep MaxClients
root@server:/etc/apache2#

(EMPTY...nothing found)

root@server:/etc/apache2# cat /usr/local/psa/version
12.0.18 Ubuntu 14.04 1200140626.18


There seems to be differences between versions, but why?

 

[IgorG]

# ls -lar | grep MaxClients is incorrect command. Use grep for apache config file or use

# grep MaxClients /etc/apache2/*

I did it. But theres absolutely no config file that contains "MaxClients".

root@server:/etc/apache2# cat apache2.conf | grep MaxClients
root@server:/etc/apache2#
