Sorry, I should have included this information in my first post. The hardware is a Dell 2550 poweredge with a 1GHz Intel 3, 500MB ECC RAM, 2 SCSI disks in RAID and some intel NICS. The OS is GNU/Linux 2.4.4 patched for Dell's RAID. The distro is my own (based on LFS and Slackware). Library info below. Here are some details from mysqlbug: >Release: mysql-3.23.31 (Source distribution) System: Linux bertha 2.4.4 #2 SMP Thu Aug 23 15:43:39 BST 2001 i686 unknown Architecture: i686 Some paths: /usr/bin/perl /usr/bin/make /usr/bin/gcc /usr/bin/cc GCC: Reading specs from /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i686-pc-linux-gnu/2.95.2/specs gcc version 2.95.2 19991024 (release) Compilation info: CC='gcc' CFLAGS='' CXX='c++' CXXFLAGS='' LDFLAGS='' LIBC: lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 13 Aug 17 12:14 /lib/libc.so.6 -> libc-2.1.3.so -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 4186643 May 3 2001 /lib/libc-2.1.3.so -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 20332328 May 3 2001 /usr/lib/libc.a -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 178 May 3 2001 /usr/lib/libc.so Configure command: ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/mysql Here are the first 3 lines from /proc/meminfo: total: used: free: shared: buffers: cached: Mem: 525471744 508993536 16478208 0 10096640 361168896 Swap: 304324608 131072 304193536 Fractional usage of swap indicates that the machine isn't being pushed, and indeed the load is usually low. > What is your my.cnf? I don't have a my.cnf, so I assume its all defaults - do you know where I can find this out or would I be advised to work out my own custom config for this machine based on the my-medium.cnf or my-large.cnf files in share/mysql? > Many time a signal 11 indicates a Harware/memory problem are you > running ECC memory? I currently have 500MB ECC RAM, supplied by Dell. I used to get this problem on an old Linux box with some dodgy RAM. It would be fine until I compiled big programs. This box has been fine though, I've compiled the kernel no problem 10s of times. Hopefully thats covered everything, thanks again - Matt. -- #!/usr/bin/perl $A='A';while(print+($A.=(grep{($A=~/(...).{78}$/)[0]eq$_}" A A A " =~m{(...)}g)?"A":" ")=~/([ A])$/){if(!(++$l%80)){print"\n";sleep 1}} --------------------------------------------------------------------- Before posting, please check: http://www.mysql.com/manual.php (the manual) http://lists.mysql.com/ (the list archive) To request this thread, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To unsubscribe, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Trouble unsubscribing?
