40 <p>This Multi-Processing Module (MPM) is the default for the
41 Windows NT operating systems. It uses a single control process
42 which launches a single child process which in turn creates
43 threads to handle requests</p>
45 <p>Capacity is configured using the
46 <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/mpm_common.html#threadsperchild">ThreadsPerChild</a></code> directive,
47 which sets the maximum number of concurrent client connections.</p>
49 <p>By default, this MPM uses advanced Windows APIs for accepting
50 new client connections. In some configurations, third-party products
51 may interfere with this implementation, with the following messages
52 written to the web server log:</p>
54 <div class="example"><p><code>
55 Child: Encountered too many AcceptEx faults accepting client connections.<br />
56 winnt_mpm: falling back to 'AcceptFilter none'.
59 <p>The MPM falls back to a safer implementation, but some client requests
60 were not processed correctly. In order to avoid this error, use
61 <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/core.html#acceptfilter">AcceptFilter</a></code> with accept filter
62 <code>none</code>.</p>
64 <pre class="prettyprint lang-config">AcceptFilter http none
65 AcceptFilter https none</pre>
68 <p><em>In Apache httpd 2.0 and 2.2,
69 <code class="directive">Win32DisableAcceptEx</code> was used for this purpose.</em></p>
71 <p>The WinNT MPM differs from the Unix MPMs such as worker and event
75 <li>When a child process is exiting due to shutdown, restart, or
76 <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/mpm_common.html#maxconnectionsperchild">MaxConnectionsPerChild</a></code>,
77 active requests in the exiting process have
78 <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/core.html#timeout">TimeOut</a></code> seconds to finish before
79 processing is aborted. Alternate types of restart and shutdown are not
82 <li>New child processes read the configuration files instead of
83 inheriting the configuration from the parent. The behavior will
84 be the same as on Unix if the child process is created at startup
85 or restart, but if a child process is created because the prior
86 one crashed or reached
87 <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/mpm_common.html#maxconnectionsperchild">MaxConnectionsPerChild</a></code>,
88 any pending changes to the configuration will become active in the
89 child at that point, and the parent and child will be using a
90 different configuration. If planned configuration changes have been
91 partially implemented and the current configuration cannot be
92 parsed, the replacement child process cannot start up and the server
93 will halt. Because of this behavior, configuration files should not
94 be changed until the time of a server restart.</li>
96 <li>The <code>monitor</code> and <code>fatal_exception</code> hooks
97 are not currently implemented.</li>
99 <li><code class="directive">AcceptFilter</code> is implemented in the MPM
100 and has a different type of control over handling of new connections.
101 (Refer to the <code class="directive"><a href="../mod/core.html#acceptfilter">AcceptFilter</a></code>
