This is a lengthy issue: I have one machine running:
2.5 Ghz AMD 512 MB DDR333 RAM 40 Gig ATA133 drive and controller Running FreeBSD 4.7 (also tried 4.8) Courier version 0.43.0, MySQL 4.0.17, Apache w/ModSSL 1.3.27 +PHP4 and IMP Mail client, SSH, inetd, cron, etc. 750+ user accounts are setup on the machine as MySQL accounts, not real user accounts. About once a day the machine crashes with the following in the message log: /kernel: Fatal trap 12: page fault while in kernel mode /kernel: fault virtual address = 0x46 /kernel: fault code = supervisor read, page not present /kernel: instruction pointer = 0x8:0xc0200960 /kernel: stack pointer = 0x10:0xd6a43c28 /kernel: frame pointer = 0x10:0xd6a43c18 /kernel: code segment = base 0x0, limit 0xfffff, type 0x1b /kernel: = DPL 0, pres 1, def32 1, gran 1 /kernel: processor eflags = interrupt enabled, resume, IOPL = 0 /kernel: current process = 63563 (courieresmtp) /kernel: interrupt mask = none /kernel: trap number = 12 /kernel: panic: page fault The machine is fairly busy (MySQL reports around 12 queries per second). Most of the time it doesn't hit swap. I've considered bad hardware, which is why I recently upgraded "from" a 1.3 AMD Duron and 512 MB of PC133 and a 30 gig HD. The problem is the EXACT same, and the chances of bad RAM from two purchases? Probably very unlikely, but possible. So after all hardware is upgraded, I assumed I wouldn't see the same crash, but I am. I've only ever seen it crash due to some issue with couriersmtp. I did recompile Courier when I upgraded hardware. I started using FreeBSD 4.8 and then went back to 4.7. The reason for this is I have another machine running that's "almost" as busy, but hasn't rebooted in over 100 days. Its running similar hardware and FreeBSD 4.7 as the OS. The server does run two other programs that I've built. I have shut those apps down for a while and still had the issue, so I highly doubt its due to those apps. Any help here would be GREATLY appreciated!
