I keep getting "reason: couldn't spawn child process" in my error_log.
It only happens during periods of high use, and effects all of my Perl
CGIs equally. Is this related to the Max/MinServers ?

There isn't normally an overly low limit on total descriptors,
and there is no more descriptor use per process during high
load times than during low load times.
1. Apache and 'couldn't spawn child process'
I'm running Apache 1.3.3 under Linux 2.0.35, and everything is working fine,
except every one in a while I get in my log file:
[Fri Feb 26 16:40:31 1999] [error] [client 24.226.98.184] (11)Try again:
couldn't spawn child process: /script.cgi.
If I go back and do the exact same thing, it works. Happens about 20% of the
time. I obviously maxed my number of processes because I have a really busy
site with alot of CGI, but I need to know what to change to fix this.
Anyone?
