Hi,

This was originally reported in http://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/568468. I have attached the information that the user has provided below. If you have any questions please let me know.

===================


Binary package hint: apache2

On a lucid server we see apache segmentation faulting at a high rate. This causes svn checkouts to fail depending on the client (e.g. on Ubunut 9.10 subversion with neon as dav lib is okay, serf is not). I was able to reproduce it with a minimal setup:

Using lucid from today, i.e. with

with mods-enabled:
alias auth_basic authz_default authz_host cache dav dav_svn deflate info mem_cache mime

dav_svn.conf:
<Location /svn>
  DAV svn
  SVNParentPath /var/lib/svn
  SVNListParentPath on
  SVNPathAuthz off
</Location>

mem_cache.conf is untouched. I created an svn repo /var/lib/svn/svn_memcache (see attachment). With some clients I cannot check it out, it fails for bad.root segfaulting apache. wget http://localhost/svn/svn_memcache/bad.root never succeeds.

If I disable mem_cache it works. (Yes, I know that we shouldn't have it enabled for serving svn to begin with and I am thankful for mem_cache pointing this out but that's not the point here :-)

Cheers, Axel.

Sure, here it is.

Looks like the modules don't have debug info - that's really unfortunate... Let me know if I can help with providing them somehow (i.e. whether I should build the modules from source).
