Hi everyone,
Maybe this could be a newbie trouble for somebody, but I�ve tried all I
can and I haven�t found the source of my problem...
I have a PII-400Mhz 192Mb RedHat 5.2 ( I know, it�s a little old )
running only postgresql 6.4, the apache/php servers are running in other
host.
the problem is this: I start the postmaster whith the command
"postmaster -i -B 256 - S" and it begins to create child process so
that, when there are more than 30 process, the system is coming down,
with 'segmentation fault' error messages, of course, I�ve to wait for
a while, then I do a 'ps aux' to see what is going on, and I see all
the process in ZOMBIE status !! and the memory is almost full, So I�ve
to kill all these processes and restart the postmaster...
How do I tune the postmaster so that it can�t use all the system�s
memory or at least, it can stand for more load. (in this case, load
means a lot of simultaneous conexions)
Please, I thank anything you can say me ...
