过去两天我一直在尝试解决这个问题，但一直没有成功。
我有一台装有 Apache 2.4.7 的 Ubuntu 14.04 服务器。Apache 会随机停止提供内容，暂时修复此问题的唯一方法是重新启动 Apache。我启用了 SWAP，并留出了 4 GB 的空间，我注意到当它崩溃时，物理 RAM 似乎会被填满，然后 SWAP 也会开始填满。
经过大量的 Google 搜索，我发现这可能与 MaxClients 有关。我的服务器非常小，只有 2 GB 的 RAM 和一个带有两个核心的 Xeon CPU E5-2630L。我很快发现 Ubuntu 现在将这些设置放在 /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/mpm_prefork.conf 中。我编辑了 MaxRequestWorkers，因为它似乎与 MaxClients 有相同的描述，我将其设置为 22。
这似乎确实解决了我的内存问题，至少就我所知是这样。物理内存从未超过 1.4 GB，并且 Swap 保持相对较低。但现在 Apache 服务器似乎更频繁地崩溃，大约每 4 分钟一次。以前，它崩溃可能需要一小时到一天的时间。
这是最新的错误日志：

增加服务器上的 RAM 是否有助于解决此问题？还是我只是错误地配置了 Apache？
先感谢您。
