Hi again,
We've been getting an intermittent server crash on our live system for a
while now which hits us every weeks or so.
The nsd daemon crashes with the above error and daemontools restarts it.
Having done a search I believe this is seen sometimes on server shutdown
where it's pretty harmless... but in these cases the server is not
(expectedly) shutting down.
We've now managed to get a core dump of the most recent occurrence.
Is anyone able to give us any pointers on how we can try to narrow this
down?
It's Naviserver 4.99.7 (but was also happening in 4.99.6 - and I think
4.99.5) on Debian 7.7 (Wheezy) and Tcl 8.5.11-2
