Hi all again

Ive installed 1.21.4 and now my server is rebooting from time to times, without any explanation. i guess it has something to do with watchdog zmwatch.pl because if i do zmpkg.pl stop then after a few seconds the computer reboots...


please, i need some help in this fast

Thanks for now

Solved.

It was really a filesystem error.

just reiserfsck --rebuild-sb and reiserfsck --rebuild-tree did the trick.


Thanks for now

Good, because if ZM was rebooting your server it would have been big news!

Yes, it was not really a filesystem problem.

it seems that the filesystem corruption is made by any kind of memory leak, i suspect of bad hardware, will see today.


But it seems that the memory leak, the computer freezes, then you restart manually and after that the filesystem get corrupted and the system reboots when fails to access it.

Thanks for now.

Phil if your tring to make zm do rebbots rather than go through the hard work of actuaslly trying to make a mem leak just shell this
shutdown -r now

lol

On a serious note, reiserfs. I thought the big advantage to reiser was that it could hanlde unlimited events and fixed was pretty much currution proof. I use ext3 and dont have this issue, should I?, maybe I do and I dont know?

i have changed my power supply.


ive heared some strange noise in the old one, i really think that this could be the problem.


Ive passed a memtest86 test for a few hours and no errors in the NEW power supply. in the old one, memtest86 cause system to reboot in about 3 minutes of use.



Whatever, i will call a priest here too.

Thanks for now.
