Unable to start apache

Unable to start apache - Insufficient system resources

[ralmeida]

Hi,

I have a problem starting apache, obtaining the error below:

Im error.log:
Insufficient system resources exist to complete the requested service. : Child 4592: _beginthreadex failed. Unable to create all worker threads. Created 196 of the 500 threads requested with the ThreadsPerChild configuration directive.

It generates in event viewer:
Faulting module httpd.exe, version 2.2.3.0, faulting module libapr-1.dll version 1.2.7.0, fault address 0x00003fc4

If I modify the parameter ThreadsPerChild from 500 to 50, apache starts with no problem.

Apache is installed in Microsoft Windows Server 2003 Enterprise Edition SP2 with 15GB RAM.
