Hello List. I followed the advice you gave and updated director and sd to the most current version to avoid this truncate error I reported before (see below). Too sad, we do have the same issue again. Do you have any more advice? Thank you! Stefan This is the current log: 29-Jul 23:30

Thank you very much for pointing this out. My Version is 5.0.3 and it is running at an opensuse 11.4 version. Could it work if I just compile a new sd executable and put the new one with depending libraries to that machine? Or to be more spefic: will director 5.0.3 and the other (old) components

Version 5.0.3 is quite old. You must upgrade the Director and all the SDs at the same time to the same version, as well as any FD on either the Dir or SD machine. Other FDs do not need to be updated. Best regards, Kern On
