I am using fstat(1) in an Apache log rotation script run via cron. The idea is that the script signals Apache to close and re-open its log files, then it loops on fstat until no process has the logs open. Then the logs are analyzed and compressed. The problem is that fstat randomly dies on signal 10. It is fairly frequent, but I cannot repeat it from the command line and I can't find a core file. The relevant part of the script looks like this: while [ `fstat $file_list|wc -l` -gt 1 ]; do sleep 1 done This happens on Apache versions 1.2.4 and 1.2.6 on 2.2.1-RELEASE and the latest 2.2.6-STABLE. -- daniel lawrence AlphaZed, Ltd mailto:danny@AlphaZed.COM http://uk.AlphaZed.COM +44 (0)1322 410 419 London To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
