[PHP-DEV] Bug #872 Updated: Large numbers of Apache log directives cause PHP to fail From: Bug Database (php-dev <email protected>)

You're hitting the file descriptor limit of your environment.
If you truss Apache, you'd probably see that it fails
trying to open files.
The limit on your Solaris box is probably lower than the limit
on the RedHat box, which is why you only experience it
under Solaris.
You can check the file descriptor limit in the shell
limits ('limit' under tcsh, or 'ulimit -a' under sh)

Note that setting the TransferLog to /dev/null does NOT
save you a file descriptor - you'd have just as many open
file descriptors pointing at /dev/null (which would bring
you to over 200 open files, which is dangerously close to
256, which is often the fd limit)
