    In /usr/local/apache we have literally 300 - 400 apache core dump files. Like to know why this is and why the system is producing so many? This dosnt seem right and its taking up huge amounts of disk space.

    This will often happen if you run easyapache with apache still running.

    before running easyapache, do:

    service httpd stop
    service chkservd stop

    When it is complete, I always do:

    service httpd stop
    service httpd start
    service chkservd start
