Hi All,
I want to share my little workaround for problem some people here, including
me, has.
I running Zenoss 2.0.6 on FreeBSD 6.2, Python2.4.
Actually I'm not programmer so be kind if I missed something.
Problem raises when local process id counter is running over 65535.
in icmp.py number of next available pid used in struct.pack function but
limited by format to H (unsigned short which max value is 65535)
actually this explains the issue when somebody in related post mentioned that
after some time zenoss running the problem rises.
so, if you have same prob you can apply this patch below.
Regards
