Hi There, Having problem with a server, processes keep dying on me and the message log reports swap memory shortages. A little like this :> Mar 2 02:43:32 es1 /kernel: swap_pager_getswapspace: failed Mar 2 02:43:45 es1 last message repeated 83 times Mar 2 02:43:46 es1 /kernel: pid 57739 (in.ftpd), uid 2000, was killed: out of swap space Mar 2 02:43:47 es1 /kernel: pid 57741 (in.ftpd), uid 2000, was killed: out of swap space Mar 2 02:43:48 es1 /kernel: pid 57766 (in.ftpd), uid 0, was killed: out of swap space Mar 2 02:43:49 es1 /kernel: pid 57766 (in.ftpd), uid 0, was killed: out of swap space A quick look at the memory situation tells me that there should be a bit of slack still there :> [es1:edge/93]$top Last pid: 69736; load averages: 0.00, 0.00, 0.00 up 2+18:02:25 07:41:26 65 processes: 1 running, 62 sleeping, 2 zombie CPU states: 0.0% user, 0.0% nice, 0.0% system, 0.0% interrupt, 100% idle Mem: 3052K Active, 2516K Inact, 37M Wired, 32K Cache, 17M Buf, 205M Free Swap: 1024M Total, 28M Used, 996M Free, 2% Inuse The server is FreeBSD4.0 Release primarily running apache and qmail. It does not get hammered with traffic more of a constant but modest flow. I cannot think for the life of me why these messages keep comming up and if anyone out there can give me some pointers I would be most appreciative. Please reply directly with a copy to the list.
