Re: [rt-users] RT 3.8.7 fails to send email sometimes - cannot allocate memory?

2011-08-07 Thread Chris Herrmann 
Ok, postscript: I haven't seen the problem occur in the week since making
the change. Memory usage on the box hasn't really changed at all, but the
error messages and the symptom have ceased and performance is still great so
currently looks like case closed, thankyou!

Regards,

Chris

And I've attached a copy of the message I just sent to RT.


The attached message doesn't make RT blow up on a vanilla system, so
it's specific to your install.


Thanks for looking at the problem. I've continued my 
troubleshooting, and today I found the culprit. There was a 
scrip which was spinning (while loop). I disabled that and 
everything is working fine.


I didn't investigate why that scrip wasn't working since it's 
not needed any longer anyway. (I saw it contained a while loop 
and considered it a suspect.)


Thanks again for your help.

Charlie
