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>

Thanks
