I once forgot to give Public access rights (as in anyone can write to it) to a field on a backend form that I had written and the error only manifested itself as a malloc error. "Bothersome" is a good word for not receiving any sort of error message related to access rights, but when the rights were granted... the malloc error vanished. Took a while to find that one. I suspect the loop of running a table to perform the write was involved in the memory usage. Things just piled up until it was malloc time. Sadly everyone who had tested the app was using an Admin ID for some reason.

** HI David, Can you give us some more detail on what it means "when access rights to a newly-created field are not properly defined?" It is a bit bothersome to think 1) a lack of permissions can cause memory issues 2) that it is easy to not properly define a field which would cause memory issues.

I've seen this happen when access rights to a newly-created field are not properly defined. -D -----Original Message----- From: Action Request System discussion list(ARSList) [mailto:arslist@ARSLIST.ORG<mailto:arslist@ARSLIST.ORG>] On Behalf Of Longwing, LJ CTR MDA/IC Sent: Wednesday, October 24, 2012 3:31 PM To: arslist@ARSLIST.ORG<mailto:arslist@ARSLIST.ORG> Subject: Re: ARERR 300 Malloc failed on server Ken, It sounds like your arserver was bouncing up against a upper memory limit. This can happen sometimes with memory leaks that don't properly release memory once used. A restart of the service brings the system back down to initial minimums of startup. You may want to make sure that you are on the most recent patch of 7.5 to ensure that any known issues are taken care of properly. -----Original Message----- From: Action Request System discussion list(ARSList) [mailto:arslist@ARSLIST.ORG<mailto:arslist@ARSLIST.ORG>] On Behalf Of Cecil, Ken Sent: Wednesday, October 24, 2012 1:42 PM To: arslist@ARSLIST.ORG<mailto:arslist@ARSLIST.ORG> Subject: ARERR 300 Malloc failed on server ** We are getting this error intermittently over the past couple of weeks. The most consistent time it is occurring is when trying to attach a largish attachment (around 4MB). Some have also received it when trying to open an attachment. Yesterday for awhile we were getting the error anytime the SDA's were trying to attach any attachment to an Incident. I ended up restarting the ar server service. Has anybody run across something similar? (Arerr 300 when working with attachments) I have a support request in with BMC and waiting for a reply. The KB articles I found did not seem to apply.
