New subject: [Users] out of memory

2 Apr 2007

Hi Bogdan,

I increased PKG_MEM_POOL_SIZE to 2MB and of course it took much longer
to run out of memory. Usually it happens once every day, this time it
ran for 3 days before running out of memory. If you don't mind, I will
send the memory dump by personal email since I don't have easy access to
an ftp server. 

Can you explain what you mean by 1.1.x? The version I am using is
openser-1.1.1-notls_src.tar.gz, downloaded from your site under 1.1.1/. 
I am guessing that to get the fix I should use whatever is under
latest-1.1.x/ Is this right?

thank you

George

 Hi Bogdan,

 I found the following thread in the list 
 http://www.openser.org/pipermail/users/2006-June/005339.html
 I suspect that I have the same issue. If I assume that our DNS is 
 strange, then my 1.1.1-notls version will be affected,   right? Is there 
  a patch to fix this? Eventually I want to go to
1.2 but I   have to do a 
  lot of testing before I can put it in production.
So for   the moment I 
  need a fix for 1.1.1.
     that fix is present in 1.1.x also.
  Also back in December I sent this to the list 
 http://www.openser.org/pipermail/users/2006-December/008205.html
 From the start, we had the issue of openser
stopping to process any  incoming requests. On December I thought it was DNS
related. I am 
 still in the dark about this. Lately I added logging and I   discovered 
  the "out of memory" error. I am
guessing that the error was   there from 
  the start, I just did not know about it. Do all
of these make any 
 sense to you? And is there a way to test our DNS to   determine whether it is
buggy?
      I;m afraid not :)
  In the meantime I will follow the instructions on
the wiki   to get the 
 > memory dump.
      yes - that will be the most relevant
info.

 regards,
 bogdan
