httpd (apache) compilation help

[somik]

Hi, my server is having problems when i install apache with

yum install httpd

I can only make a total of 10 connections maximum to the server. Thats a total of 10 connections from ALL incoming ips. After that, apache is unresponsive. Tried modifying the MaxClient limit and ServerLimit but seems like the hard limit of ServerLimit is 10 and it doesn't accept any connections beyond that point.

I have tryed it with cPanel on a different VPS but since cpanel compiles its own apache, the problem is nonexistant.

Could someone link me to a custom httpd installation guide? I am a noob so telling me "use your own configurations for apache" is same as telling a blind person "browse any site you like"....


Also, please no posts related to lighttpd or ngix as they do not support .htaccess files.

try these solutions

edit httpd.conf and restart httpd (you have done this)

Install kloxo... it will take care of everything

get litespeed (super fast and very lite webserver just like lighttpd but also support .htaccess personal experience)

I did all those... didn't solve anything... Even litespeed had that problem of connection limitation with latest CentOS OpenVZ template. The older version works fine.

PM me.

I might be able to help you out.

What have you tried already...?

[somik]

Lets see....

Uninstalled httpd, reinstalled it through Yum ---> didn't work
Uninstalled httpd and let it be reinstalled with Kloxo ---> didn't work
Uninstalled httpd and reinstall it with virtualmin ---> didn't work either
Edited the httpd.conf and raised maxClient and ServerLimit ---> gave error during reboot that limit cannot be raised.

Installed cpanel and compiled apache with it ---> worked... but i dont have a cpanel license


Thats why i am looking for manual to recompile httpd and install it like what it will be if i do with yum command...
