I had a similar problem. While I'm sure it could be other things, mine turned out to be the quality of the dsl connection I was using. It seems apache is very sensitive to network disconnects and is prone to "hang" if the network looses connection for even an instant. I solved it by connecting through a router, which kept a solid connection to the server even if the network "blinked" occassionally.

thanks for your reply we will try it .
although my web server connected to internet through routers which is connected to lease lines of an gateway provider . it may be the reason that lease line is down for few seconds and apache hangs????????????????. pls again respond by taking this connectivity into consideration

It would seem like your routers wouldn't lose connection with your servers, so that may not be the problem. Sorry I couldn't be more help.
