Hi Mark

I guess we are getting closer to the problem perhaps...

Seems like it's trying to access directories within /proc

[EMAIL PROTECTED] /]# truss -o 0.log  f-prot f-prot -dumb -archive -packed
/var/amavis/tmp/amavis-20050801T172532-40177
truss: cannot open /proc/82371/mem: No such file or directory
truss: cannot open /proc/curproc/mem: No such file or directory


[EMAIL PROTECTED] /]# truss -o 0.log  f-prot f-prot -dumb -archive -packed
/var/amavis/tmp/amavis-20050801T172532-40177
truss: cannot open /proc/84362/mem: No such file or directory
truss: cannot open /proc/curproc/mem: No such file or directory


[EMAIL PROTECTED] /]# truss -o 0.log  f-prot f-prot -dumb -archive -packed
/var/amavis/tmp/amavis-20050801T172532-40177
truss: cannot open /proc/84610/mem: No such file or directory
truss: cannot open /proc/curproc/mem: No such file or directory

I have taken the libirty to create the directory /proc/curproc/mem ,, but
I'm not sure about the random /proc/82371/mem directories. Anyway, this is
what I then get :-

[EMAIL PROTECTED] /]# truss f-prot f-prot  -dumb -archive -packed
/var/amavis/tmp/amavis-20050801T172532-40177
truss: cannot open /proc/84690/mem: No such file or directory
truss: cannot open /proc/curproc/mem: Is a directory
[EMAIL PROTECTED] /]#


Much apreciated !

Hi,

/proc/82371/mem isn't random. /proc is a virtual file system. 82371 is a directory containing info about process 82371. mem is a file containing memory usage info for that process. If the directory/file doesn't exist. Chances are process 82371 ended before f-prot got to read it. That or it is not allowed (ie. permissions). If your using Linux, check out 'man proc'.
