If apache crashes or freezes, it is helpful if you include a backtrace in the
bug report.
In case of a crash, do the following:
1) Install the packages apache2-dbg libapr1-dbg libaprutil1-dbg gdb. 
2) Add "CoreDumpDirectory /var/cache/apache2" to your apache configuration.
3) Execute as root:
	/etc/init.d/apache2 stop
	ulimit -c unlimited
	/etc/init.d/apache2 start
4) Do whatever it takes to reproduce the crash. There should now be the file
/var/cache/apache2/core .
5) If you use apache2-mpm-prefork, execute:
	
	gdb /usr/sbin/apache2 /var/cache/apache2/core
	(gdb) bt full
	...
	(gdb) quit
If you use a threaded mpm, execute:
	gdb /usr/sbin/apache2 /var/cache/apache2/core
        (gdb) thread apply all bt full
	...
	(gdb) quit
Include the backtrace in the bug report.
6) Undo the change to your configuration, uninstall the debug packages, remove
/var/cache/apache2/core
In case of a hanging process, you don't need a core dump and you can skip steps 2 and 3.
4) Reproduce the problem. Get the pid of a hanging process.
5) Start gdb with
	gdb -p pid
and continue as described above. It may also be helpful to include the output of
	strace -p pid
