Why your seeing this: Apache is sending a signal to a child process to kill it. How to make it go away: In your httpd.conf add the following: SetEnvIf Remote_Addr "::1" loopback SetEnvIf Remote_Addr "127\.0\.0\.1" loopback CustomLog logs/access_log combined env=!loopback Some things you can do to reduce the number of times it shows up is looking through your logs to see why a child process is being killed along with increasing your MaxSpareServers setting. As when you reach the MaxSpareServers limit apache kills off a child process.

Try it by iptables if you had VPS or Physical Server
