mod_fcgid errors, leading to 500 error page (full details included)

[Wed Dec 12 23:23:09 2012] [warn] [client 31.22.4.214] (104)Connection reset by peer: mod_fcgid: error reading data from FastCGI server
[Wed Dec 12 23:23:09 2012] [error] [client 31.22.4.214] Premature end of script headers: index.php
[Wed Dec 12 23:31:20 2012] [error] mod_fcgid: process /home/www-data/php5-fcgi(32763) exit(communication error), get unexpected signal 7

I get these errors every time in my APACHE logs. I am running a forum, and sometimes these errors get so severe, it returns a 500 error.

I am using APC, Debian OS, PHP5CGI, and MYSQL. Here is a list of the modules I am using on APACHE:

Could you please tell me what's wrong? Is this an APC issue?

I was also seeing this error on a shared hosting environment using php-fcgi. APC is enabled but only being used on one site which wasn't generating the error.

It turned out the site with the error had exceeded their disk quota, something I discovered by accident when trying to update some files.

Increasing the disk quota for that site immediately resolved the issue.

I was getting the same random errors from three sites that were using APC extensively for both bytecode caching and other data using the W3 Total Cache plugin for Wordpress.

I disabled the APC caching on the sites, and the errors continued. Removing APC from the server, though, fixed it entirely. Since I researched this extensively and found almost no other incidences of "get unexpected signal 7" with PHP under mod_fcgid, I'm pretty confident that yes, your problem was probably caused by an APC issue.

I would imagine that you've already resolved your problem, since this question is over two months old, but hopefully this may help someone else who runs into the same error.
