Hello everyone,

This may be more of a problem with my BDB setup but I thought I'd check
here first since the application that's suffering is OpenLDAP.  Here is
my setup:

RHEL 3 AS (2.4.21-37.ELsmp)
OpenLDAP 2.2.29
BerkeleyDB 4.2.52 + patches
Cyrus-SASL-2.1.21
Heimdal 0.7.1
OpenSSL-0.9.7g

System has 4189724672 (4GB) memory.

slapd.conf has:
checkpoint 2048 5
cachesize 50000




Nov  8 01:04:46 tau slapd[10839]: bdb(dc=uta,dc=edu): malloc: Cannot
allocate memory: 3145764

This would appear to indicate that your system has run out of free RAM. Do you have any stats on the state of the system when this occurs?

than ever in the present religio-political climate. They often focus on
fantasy and sf books, which foster that deadly enemy to bigotry and blind
faith, the imagination." -- Ursula K. Le Guin
