[rt-users] Overnight segfault since RT 3.8.1 upgrade

[Patrick Busch]

Hi,

I had the same problem on a Suse 9.3 machine. Worked around it with a cron job that restarts the apache2 instance every morning.

I would also be interested if someone knew a better solution.

Best Regards,
Patrick

Betreff: [rt-users] Overnight segfault since RT 3.8.1 upgrade

Hi all,

I've been having an odd issue since I upgraded from RT 3.8.0 to RT 3.8.1. 
Every morning, any attempt to do anything with RT, including load the "Login" page, results in a segfault from Apache.  If I restart Apache, everything works again until the next morning.  I presume this means it's related to something that's going on through cron, but since RT 3.8.0 was working just fine, I'm not sure what that might be.

I have a fairly plain-vanilla CentOS 5.2 system (mysql-5.0.45-7.el5).  I can provide more details if they'd be helpful, but didn't want to pollute the mailing list unnecessarily.  I did manage to use strace to capture what was going on with Apache when a segfault happened, if that would be helpful.

Has anyone seen this before?  I don't think I saw anything in the mailing list archives, but I'd appreciate if anyone has any thoughts on what I can do to fix this.

Thanks,

James
