With the help of this forum, we've installed PHP 4.0.5 with java support on our Apache server. The problem we're trying to fix is that for each php/java page requested, the Apache server spawns 8 new instances of Apache. Requesting the same page a second time often (but not always) spawns 8 more instances.
The php/java pages in question are simple example pages that return what I expect.
Standard .html or .php pages do not exhibit this behavior.
Details:
RedHat Linux 6.2
JDK 1.3.1 rc2
PHP 4.0.5, compiled as an Apache DSO
Any thoughts or suggestions are appreciated.
