I am sometimes getting the following in cache.log when either a log rotation or a reconfigure takes place. It is a symptom of not all my redirectors (Ad Zapper) being restarted:
2003/06/12 09:30:14| ipcCreate: fork: (12) Not enough space 2003/06/12 09:30:14| WARNING: Cannot run '/usr/local/squid/sbin/squid_redirect' process. 2003/06/12 09:30:14| ipcCreate: fork: (12) Not enough space 2003/06/12 09:30:14| WARNING: Cannot run '/usr/local/squid/sbin/squid_redirect' process. 2003/06/12 09:30:14| ipcCreate: fork: (12) Not enough space 2003/06/12 09:30:14| WARNING: Cannot run '/usr/local/squid/sbin/squid_redirect' process. This problem is not occuring every time, but it appears to be occurring more frequently in the past week or two. It is fixed by doing another reconfigure restart of squid (sometimes requires more than one of these.) The relevant details of my config are: Sun E220R with 2 450MHz CPUs, Solaris 9, 512 MB memory, 2 x 18 Gbyte disks (one for cache.) squid 2.5.STABLE2-20030318 with Smartfilter 3.1.1.02 patches cache_mem 80 MB cache_dir ufs /cache 4800 16 256 redirect_program /usr/local/squid/sbin/squid_redirect redirect_children 12 The redirector is adzapper (http://adzapper.sourceforge.net). There is other software running on the system, but inspection using top and vmstat do not indicate a memory problem - squid is using 197MB with 163MB resident, each redirector uses just over 5MB with 4.7 resident according to top; ipcs -a doesn't show any lingering shared memory or semaphores (and no configured message queues.)
