similar to: zombies in dovecot-auth processes

after booting a CentOS 4.2 system I have a bunch of zombies... root 2828 0.0 0.0 0 0 ? Z 14:41 0:00 [chvt] <defunct> My read from googling this is chvt stems from something that involves a shell. They ***may*** have been created from my attempts to start mysqld which isn't working (I will start another thread) but no efforts to kill them off are working...

Hi all, I have installed and configured dovecot on two different machines, so I don't have much experience with this server. One installation is giving me serious problems, that I have a hard time tracing. From the beginning: the machine is a debian mix (stable/unstable) dovecot 0.9.11, real users authenticated via pam_ldap/nss_ldap. It serves ~70 users, all of them using Outlook, Outlook

I've been running Plants vs Zombies for several months, now, on Fedora 13. It's been working fine in a window, but I decided to try it in full screen mode. Alas, that just gets me to a blank screen, and I have to use a terminal to kill it. I know there's a way (using either the registry or a config file) to get it back to a window, but I can't figure it out and don't want to

Hello Community, I have a problem with two deleted KVMs. So far we have done everything that is necessary: virsh undefine [kvm-name] --managed-save --snapshots-metadata --remove-all-storage --nvram virsh destroy [kvm-name] and we delete the xml-File and the .img. If we now call "virsh list -all", then the machines are also gone. However, after a restart of libvirtd they reappear in

I started using Festival for the first time today and am having a problem with zombies left behind after every time that it speaks. I'm using Festival 1.4.3 with today's CVS of Asterisk. Everything seems to work. The only obvious problem is that a defunct process is left behind every call to Festival. Is this a known problem? Does anyone know how I can fix this?

I am having a problem with my Samba machine, here are the details. The machine in question is running FreeBSD 4.5-RELEASE on a Dual PIII/XEON 550. I downloaded the source for Samba-2.2.3a and compiled without a hitch. I also setup SWAT to run through an stunnel(ssl) pipe. SWAT configuration of Samba worked great, but if I start the daemons(smbd & nmbd) from SWAT, smbd seems to keep creating

Sorry, Forgot to mention, I'm running Asterisk 1.2.3, zaptel and libpri 1.2.2, addons 1.2.1. Steve

Running dovecot-0.99.13 on Solaris9/Sparc with ~25k users, we are having regularly recurring problems with large numbers imap-login/pop3-login drones, cycling on poll(). Over the course of 1-2 days, the number of such processes slowly rises to >1000, exhausts resources, and necessitates that dovecot be restarted (having killed all current active and zombie child processes). Nothing of

Hello guys I have the following problem with xen 3.0.1 compiled from sources on Debian Sarge, kernel 2.6.12.6 which can be easily reproduced at least on my installation: after I log in to domU console or via ssh and run "shutdown" I get deadlocked network interface with error message: unregister_netdevice: waiting for vifX.0 to become free. Usage count = n After this happen I

Hey all, Quick question about handling completed workers... Most of my workers are one-offs that just let me spin off a long-running file transfer process and then they just need to self-destruct when completed. Thus, at the end of my do_work, I just call self.delete to (in theory) self-destruct. However, while checking the jobs.size from the console, I''ve noticed that this

Hi all, Have been experimenting with agents and queues instead of placing calls direct to a user's phone extension, but I've run into problems with calls to both the agent and the extension which creates a zombie and double records calls abandoned etc. We're using a unique queue for each agent (only a handful of users) to try and get some agent/queue information to see what the

Hi, How can I figure why some domain is still in zombie state, like these ones: master-xen root /vm/ttylinux# xm list Name ID Mem(MiB) VCPUs State Time(s) Domain-0 0 574 1 r----- 90.5 Zombie-small-11 28 0 1 ---s-d 0.9 Zombie-small-17 34 0 1 ---s-d

We have an issue with our Asterisk install where Asterisk produces many Zombie processes (on the order of several hundred per minute) until either the Asterisk server is restarted (and the zombies die a natural death), or the kernel runs out of PID space (happens within hours) and brings the system to a halt. This problem only happens when the server is under some non-trivial load. We were

We have been researching stuck zombie processes in our libvirt lxc containers. What we found was: 1) Each zombie’s parent was pid 1. init which symlinks to systemd. 2) In some cases, the zombies were launched by systemd, in others the zombie was inherited. 3) While the child is in the zombie state, the parent process (systemd) /proc/1/status shows no pending signals. 4) Attaching gdb to

I'm monitoring Asterisk with Nagios. Nagios constantly alerts because of too many zombie processes. I eventually had to disable the notification for the alert but why does Asterisk create so many zombie processes, I've see more than 30 at times and it generally stays in the 20s... just seems unusual and wondering if it's harmful, thanks in advance. -------------- next part

Dear listers, I'm facing a puzzling situation with Digium TDM2400 card (12 FXO / 12 FXS). Once a day or so we detect 1 or 2 zombie FXO channels. These can be either outbound or inbound calls. I thought this could be related to obsolete DAHDI or Asterisk versions, so I upgraded to 2.4.0 and 1.6.2.15 respectively (OS: Ubuntu 10.04 64 bits). To no avail; the zombie channels keep showing up.
