although several postings state that this issue has been fixed, I'm still getting this error message: Error detected on SSL (read) file descriptor: Broken pipe (32)

A longer sample of your logs (with "debug = 7") would be useful here.

The original problem for taking a closer look though, are hanging incoming connections. I.e. a https request is not forwarded to the backend application, but hangs somewhere in limbo.

My current workaround are TIMEOUT* settings to kill these connections.

Does anyone have some suggestions how to solve these issues?

In most cases a better solution is: socket = l:SO_KEEPALIVE=1 and/or: socket = r:SO_KEEPALIVE=1 depending on which side of the connection hangs.
