Hi All, I posted an email some time back asking about MD slaves that were unexpectedly terminating with a signal 14. David Skoll mentioned at the time that it was possibly a perl module generating this signal 14 which was somehow not being handled and was causing the slaves to die. At the time, I upgraded a few of the perl modules, and the problem seemed to go away. Unfortunately, it is back. Once the errors start occuring, a restart seems to stop it happening for a time, but eventually, it returns. This error is occuring on two seperate mail exchangers (Which are running the same software versions). I am running mimedefang 2.53 under CentOS linux 3.6 Can anyone give me any pointers at all as to how I can go about further tracking down what is generating these signal 14's?? Can I arm some sort of signal handler in my filter and generate some sort of trace back? Any sort of help would be appreciated. The log messages I am getting are as follows: <snip> Jan 18 19:00:57 hosta mimedefang-multiplexor[6464]: Slave 4 died prematurely -- check your filter rules Jan 18 19:00:57 hosta mimedefang-multiplexor[6464]: Reap: Idle slave 4 (pid 10634) exited due to signal 14 (SLAVE DIED UNEXPECTEDLY) Jan 18 19:00:57 hosta mimedefang-multiplexor[6464]: Slave 4 resource usage: req=44, scans=8, user=14.830, sys=1.360, nswap=0, majflt=10062, minflt=111990, maxrss=0, bi=0, bo=0 Jan 18 19:00:57 hosta mimedefang[6477]: Error from multiplexor: ERR No response from slave </snip>
