As you have posted yourself, this has nothing to do with haproxy, it's a kernel crash (in the scheduler here). Your system is running a totally outdated and unmaintained kernel (2.6.35.14) which suffers from many bugs and vulnerabilities, including a few local root exploits if my memory serves me right. Note that the "D" taint flag indicates that it's not the first oops or bug that this kernel experiences, so it's possible that the system was already in a bad state. You must definitely fix this kernel issue, even if it is by simply picking a more recent one from a more recent release of your distro, it should work. It's even possible that such an old unmaintained system has inhabitants in it :-/ Now regarding your version of haproxy, it's not much better. 94 bugs were fixed in the 1.4 maintenance branch since 1.4.18, 2 of which were considered critical and 10 considered major. Time to upgrade as well (latest 1.4 as of now is 1.4.26). Hoping this helps, Willy
