Thanks for the tips, Phil - I'll try it out. Don't suppose you'd like to open source that replacement cfmail tag would you ?
(I know, a bit cheeky, but I'm getting desperate !)

Is there a workaround or similar that you implemented ? We recently expanded the sites on the server, and one part of this meant that the simulataneous mail usage went up - and crashes became (much) more frequent. To get round it we wrote a replacement CFmail tag that created an uniqely named text file in a directory in the correct format to be piped into sendmail. A cronjob then does that piping. The server is now pretty stable (it restarts the CF bit once every couple of weeks - so we might force a CF restart weekly to control this) > One the other point, I can't tell what's actually causing the crash. I've looked at output from strace but couldn't tell which process actually crashed... Turn off any scheduled tasks to see if that makes any difference. What I did was look at the times in the cf logs of restarts and cross referenced this to cfms that were being called at the time using the apache logs My kit is a Dell dual P3 866 with 1 gig RAM, a big RAID array running RH 7.2 and CF 5 Phil ______________________________________________________________________ Your ad could be here.
