Just found this while working on a clients site, and figured I'd mention it ... Aolserver4 has a program called 'nsthreadtest' that you can run from the command line, that aborts part way through: pthread: join 9 = 9 nsthreads: pthread_join failed in Ns_ThreadJoin: Invalid argument Abort (core dumped) It dumps core, with a quick trace showing: (gdb) where #0 0x0000000800b4781c in pthread_testcancel () from /usr/lib/libpthread.so.2 #1 0x0000000800b35543 in sigaction () from /usr/lib/libpthread.so.2 #2 0x0000000800b37062 in sigaction () from /usr/lib/libpthread.so.2 #3 0x0000000800b30d56 in pthread_kill () from /usr/lib/libpthread.so.2 #4 0x0000000800b305d3 in raise () from /usr/lib/libpthread.so.2 #5 0x0000000800d1696d in abort () from /lib/libc.so.6 #6 0x00000008007b1cb8 in Tcl_PanicVA () from /usr/local/lib/libtcl84.so.1 #7 0x00000008007b1d4d in Tcl_Panic () from /usr/local/lib/libtcl84.so.1 #8 0x0000000800630a65 in NsThreadFatal () from /usr/local/aolserver/lib/libnsthread.so #9 0x0000000800632835 in Ns_ThreadJoin () from /usr/local/aolserver/lib/libnsthread.so #10 0x0000000000402868 in main () Don't know if its anything to be concerned about, or just something badly programmed within nsthreadtest, but figured I'd point it out ... if I can provide more details just to confirm it isn't an "OS problem", let me know ... ---- Marc G.
