Daemon mode hangs on FreeBSD

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago

When using daemon mode on FreeBSD all requests hang.

This is occurring because FreeBSD is stricter in its thread implementation and 
treats as an error an 
attempt to unlock a thread mutex that was locked in a different thread. This 
causes code in 
mod_wsgi using a condition variable and where mutex was setup in a parent 
thread to fail, but due 
to lack of complete error checking this was actually seen as success. This 
meant multiple threads 
would enter accept() on listener socket at the same time and cause conflict 
with each other with 
none able to properly accept new connection. As a result, no connections were 
being accepted and 
requests would just hang.

A potential fix for this is include in revision 1524 of mod_wsgi 3.X branch and 
1525 of mod_wsgi 
4.X trunk.
