Hello,
Just to follow up on this question, the hanging was resolved by updating th=
e WebLogic Proxy plugin from 1.0 to 1.1.  However, the new plugin introduce=
d other issues such as read-only screens in one application, and a re-authe=
ntication prompt issue with another application.    We're still working on =
those.
Thanks for the help!

Sounds like it has to be configuration problem if other proxies work with s=
ame code.  Try testing a working proxy pointing to this Weblogic server.   =
It is possible the problem is on the Weblogic side.
Try to copy the configuration from a working server to this server.  Here a=
re all parameters for further debugging:

 It's tied to just the one.  We're currently combing through configurations=
 to check for differences.  At a high level, it's the same versions of Wind=

Local content in Apache never causes the hang. As does content in the other=
 apps that are being proxied.
Thanks for the help!

The weblogic plugin also has option to debug.  Have you verified the plugin=
 does not show the error?
Add Debug ALL and by default it should log to /tmp directory.
Are you able to serve content in other directories that may have content lo=
cally stored on Apache and that do not trigger plugin?

Hello Everyone,
I've run into a problem where Apache Hangs after several requests when prox=
ying some Java based dashboards.  Pretty consistently, the dashboard loads =
fine the first four or five times, on the next time Apache is hung.    It j=
ust stops responding to all requests, including the standard Apache status =
page.   Apache never seems to come back on its own. Only when it's restarte=
d.
The problem only happens with these java-based dashboards.   It doesn't han=
g on other content even going out to hundreds of requests.
Apache's logs don't show an error, basically it just stops responding.  It =
would seem like it stopped getting requests.    I'd love to have an error t=
o search on.
CPU, Memory, IO all seem to be normal like it's not doing anything.
We're running Apache 2.2.21 on Windows Server 2003, with the WebLogic Proxy=
 Plugin.   The backend server is  WebLogic 10.3.3, with Java 1.6.30.
SSL is configured between  WebLogic and Apache, but we're not seeing SSL er=
rors.
Does anyone have any suggestions or comments to help resolve this error?
Thank You!
