I suggest you post the exact error message that you see in the Apache logs so that we can hunt it down in the Apache source. However, I'm willing to bet that you're using an old release of FreeBSD for which login.conf sets restrictions on the number of child processes and amount of memory any process can use _by_ _default_. Modern releases of FreeBSD don't impose these per-process limits by default. Have a look at /etc/login.conf and you'll probably find that the default class is restricted. Ciao, Sheldon.
