Hi, For some reason my machine keeps crashing almost every night at around 3:00am with the following test in the messages log file:
Jun 14 03:02:28 taco kernel: pid 7174 (sh), uid 0: exited on signal 11 (core dumped) I tracked it down to cvsup. I run it every night at 3:00am, the following is the log file that I make it create: ===update-os started by root on at Mon Jun 13 03:01:00 2005=== Connected to cvsup.ca.freebsd.org Updating collection src-all/cvs TreeList failed: Error in "/usr/local/etc/cvsup/sup/src-all/checkouts.cvs:RELENG_5_3": 37510: File is truncated. Delete it and try again. ===update-os started by root on at Tue Jun 14 03:01:00 2005=== Connected to cvsup.ca.freebsd.org Updating collection src-all/cvs TreeList failed: Error in "/usr/local/etc/cvsup/sup/src-all/checkouts.cvs:RELENG_5_3": 37510: File is truncated. Delete it and try again. The following is the 'update-os' script I made: echo "===update-os started by $USER on $HOST at `date +%c`===" >> /usr/local/etc/cvsup/log/update-os.log #!/bin/sh echo "Updating OS sources with cvsup..." /usr/local/bin/cvsup /usr/local/etc/cvsup/supfile.os >> /usr/local/etc/cvsup/log/update-os.log The supfile.os: *default host=cvsup.ca.freebsd.org compress *default release=cvs *default base=/usr/local/etc/cvsup *default prefix=/usr *default delete use-rel-suffix *default tag=RELENG_5_3 src-all I decided to rm the file '/usr/local/etc/cvsup/sup/src-all/checkouts.cvs:RELENG_5_3' just to see if that fixed it. And it did, but why was it crashing the entire box? -- --------- [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
