6 times httpd2 & 6 times postgres

When I start apache2 ('apachectl2 start'), this appears in /var/log/apache2/error_log:

[Mon Oct 27 12:28:26 2014] [warn] Init: Session Cache is not configured [hint: SSLSessionCache]
[Mon Oct 27 12:28:39 2014] [notice] Digest: generating secret for digest authentication ...

and 'ps -a | grep httpd2' gives (a similar call displayed 6 times):

     5644    6064    6064       5644  ?       1001 12:31:13 /usr/sbin/httpd2
     6064       1    6064       6064  ?       1001 12:31:11 /usr/sbin/httpd2
     3084    6064    6064       3084  ?       1001 12:31:13 /usr/sbin/httpd2
     5204    6064    6064       5204  ?       1001 12:31:12 /usr/sbin/httpd2
     4088    6064    6064       4088  ?       1001 12:31:12 /usr/sbin/httpd2
     4388    6064    6064       4388  ?       1001 12:31:13 /usr/sbin/httpd2

When I stop apache2 ('apachectl2 stop'), this appears in /var/log/apache2/error_log:

[Mon Oct 27 12:29:24 2014] [notice] caught SIGTERM, shutting down
[Mon Oct 27 12:29:25 2014] [notice] seg fault or similar nasty error detected in the parent process

Because I use postgresql, I get 6 similar calls once I start it ('pg_ctl start -D /usr/share/postgresql/data -l /usr/share/postgresql/data/pgsql.log'):

$ ps -a | grep postgres
     4580    5064    4580       4580  ?       1001 12:31:31 /usr/sbin/postgres
     5064       1    5968       6056  pty0    1001 12:31:30 /usr/sbin/postgres
     3300    5064    3300       3300  ?       1001 12:31:31 /usr/sbin/postgres
     2480    5064    2480       2480  ?       1001 12:31:31 /usr/sbin/postgres
     4540    5064    4540       4540  ?       1001 12:31:31 /usr/sbin/postgres
     5552    5064    5552       5552  ?       1001 12:31:31 /usr/sbin/postgres

I have two questions:
1. The "seg fault or similar nasty error detected in the parent process" message represents a problem? if yes, how do I solve it?
2. Why ps -a displays 6 times a similar call with httpd2 and postgres? is that the normal behavior?

Thanks,

Gery
