We are facing issues with a php-fpm server that spawns too many children. This morning, I set up php-fpm's status page, and got an interesting piece of information : among all the scripts that are executed by the the children, one has a request duration that amounts to 3050111212255 µs which equals roughly to 35 days, which is the uptime of the machine, although we restart php-fpm recently. Here the output of the status page for this script.

pid:                  19998
state:                Idle
start time:           29/Aug/2014:14:48:25 +0200
start since:          578
requests:             244
request duration:     3050444744915
request method:       POST
request URI:          /app.php?_format=json
content length:       96
user:                 jobuser
script:               /home/frontoffice/instances/encoding/current/web/app.php
last request cpu:     0.00
last request memory:  7864320

Do you think this is a bug in php-fpm ?

  • The weird thing is "request duration" > "start since" ^^

  • If people would stop abandoning their questions and actually post the solutions when they find them it would sure be nice...

People who have same problem can try to add request_terminate_timeout = 300 to their php-fpm pool configuration

  • Thank you for your answer. I am going to add this to my config and see what I get. However, I think the problem is deeper. There must be an underlying reason why these processes are misbehaving. I have a few posts that are related and when I figure them out this thread is one that I will be updating. Thanks again.
