FWIW,
I've started to experience the same thing which Kyle Mott and "Vlad"
reported with apache+mod_ssl crashing when SSL is enabled:
#0 0x2840b63c in engine_table_select () from /usr/lib/libcrypto.so.3
#1 0x283ebc88 in ENGINE_get_default_RAND () from /usr/lib/libcrypto.so.3
#2 0x283eaf6e in RAND_get_rand_method () from /usr/lib/libcrypto.so.3
#3 0x283eb07c in RAND_seed () from /usr/lib/libcrypto.so.3
#4 0x2830be47 in ssl_rand_seed () from /usr/local/libexec/apache/libssl.so
#5 0x28307dac in ssl_init_Module () from /usr/local/libexec/apache/libssl.so
#6 0x8055714 in ap_init_modules ()
#7 0x805d8fe in standalone_main ()
#8 0x805e08b in main ()
#9 0x804fcde in _start ()
A few salient points:
- running FreeBSD-4.11 stable, and the latest apache+mod_ssl port w/ PHP
- the crash occurs before httpd creates the child processes
- disabling PHP does not work; disabling SSL works around this
problem (but is not an acceptable solution, of course :)
- I don't have any cryptocards, nor have I made any significant
changes to the system since this started happening. The system
uptime was around 40 days, so the process has at least started fine
40 days ago.
- rebuilding world and apache+mod_ssl does not help
- /dev/{u,}random seem to be fine
- my /tmp is mounted nodev,noexec,nosuid but this has worked with it
in the past, so should not be an issue.
