The overseas organisation that contacted me is having a problem with their WO app. It is running on a Dual 500 MHz PPC G4 with 1GB RAM and running Tiger Server 10.4.11. The backend DB is under Oracle on a Sun server.
The current problem is that the httpd root task gets into a situation where it keeps spawning www tasks. It initially starts of with 5 of them. At some point in time there are a multitude of them and the system slows down to the point of having to be re-booted. I have now received the source code for the WO app. It turns out to be an Xcode project. My present environment is Snow Leopard 10.6.7 and Xcode 3.2.6 on an Intel Mac Pro (2009 Nehalem 2xQuad Core) etc. Leopard was last the OS X version where Apple provided WO support. I do have Leopard 10.5.8 as a bootable partition. Also Xcode is installed and I can install whatever WO stuff is needed from the dvd. I have also DL'd WO 5.4.3 but not installed it yet. I also have available a G4 PPC 867MHz machine which I can setup as a web server if this is needed. (It runs Tiger 10.4.11 but not Server version. Server is available to me and I can setup a separate partition as a test environment) Browsing around in the Xcode project I see a folder named GCRI.eomodeld containing a lot of .fspec and .plist files. Then a whole bunch of other folders containing .java source files. And a folder named Web Components containing other folders in which are .api, .wo, .html, .wod, and .woo files. Finally there is a single target named GCRI made up of two sub targets named Application Server and Web Server Please advise me as to the best debugging path to follow to diagnose the spawning issue. Thanks for your advice and respect.... Peter _______________________________________________ Do not post admin requests to the list. They will be ignored.
