FW: [Twisted-Python] strange server crash

One more thing: This server has ECC memory, and it also has a BMC controller that externally logs all hardware errors independently of the memory condition.
This looks like a Python error or something very basic. It started happening after I slightly changed the code for this particular server. -----Original Message----- From: Alec Matusis [mailto:matusis@yahoo.com] Sent: Tuesday, March 24, 2009 6:26 PM To: 'Twisted general discussion' Subject: RE: [Twisted-Python] strange server crash This server crashed again today, again during maximum load for the day. This time, no errors in the twisted log, and not even a segfault message in /var/log/messages : the pid simply ceased to exist. Once again, this machine runs 8 twisted servers, but this one is slightly different from the others, and the error happened after the code for this server has been slightly modified. I do not think this is the bad RAM anymore, because there's one particular server that keeps crashing on this machine.

Alec, I know this sounds silly, but you might just want to rollback your changes and start the modification from scratch. I would definitely review each change in detail. If you rollback until you upgrade to 2.6, that might keep you going for a bit. I know it isn't a programming solution, but ya gotta do what you gotta do. I hate bugs that only show up in a production system. Carl Alec Matusis wrote:
