Re: Resource limit problems.

[Fred Clausen <fred@unique.com>]

Hi All,

I have allieviated the fork problems by adjusting kernel parameters 
(/proc/sys/file-max and /proc/sys/inode-max). However when I try to run a c++ 
executable I get the following result :

Regex Error: Memory exhausted
Aborted

The executable in question is pkzip avialable from www.pkware.com. I am sure 
you can duplicate this problem in any woody system, I have done it on 3 so 
far. Here is some more info (despite the misleading name it is not a windows 
executable):

$ldd pklin251.exe
        libg++.so.27 => /usr/lib/libg++.so.27 (0x4000b000)
        libstdc++.so.27 => /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.27 (0x40050000)
        libm.so.5 => /lib/libm.so.5 (0x40052000)
        libc.so.5 => /lib/libc.so.5 (0x4005b000)
        libstdc++-libc6.1-2.so.3 => /usr/lib/libstdc++-libc6.1-2.so.3
(0x40119000)
        libm.so.6 => /lib/libm.so.6 (0x4015e000)
        libc.so.6 => /lib/libc.so.6 (0x4017f000)
        libstdc++-libc6.1-1.so.2 => /usr/lib/libstdc++-libc6.1-1.so.2 
(0x4029c000)
        ld-linux.so.2 => /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x402de000)

I had to create the libstdc++* and libg++* symlinks manually. I am not sure 
why this is happening. Any input would again be appreciated.

Kind regards, Fred.
