httpd mod_proxy fails attempting Unix domain socket though we configure none
Issue
- We see proxy requests on httpd begin to fail intermittently as they attempt some unix domain socket file like /var/run/rpc/xmlrpc.sock though we have no such configuration for this unix domain socket. Restarting clears this intermittent issue for a time before it begins again in another few days:
