Error "fork failed: Resource temporarily unavailable" when trying to login

I have a problem with a PPC-based server running OS X Server 10.4.11. Suddenly I'm unable to log in via SSH or use ARD (remote desktop) via the admin user account.
In SSH it shows "Received disconnect from 1.2.3.4: 2: fork failed: Resource temporarily unavailable" as error message.
Interestingly I can login directly via root. I wonder how to solve this, just waiting some time, rebooting server, any deeper insight would be welcome ?

Just noticed that this is still open... a reboot did it
However maybe someone has an idea how this happened and how to prevent similar situations in the future, if possible ?

Fork() failure [Resource temporarily unavailable]

Occasionally our webserver will fail to start a CGI with this error message "fork() failure [Resource temporarily unavailable]".
I think this is caused by lack of RAM. Is this correct? Can we configure the Solaris 10 OS to use disk space when there is a shortage or to hang the thread until space is available?

The system will use disk in place of memory if you have configured a swap device.
Which is standard practice.
You can check if you have swap configured with swap -l
But lack of virt memory is only one thing that could be causing it.
If your CGI script is leaving zombie processes, you could be running out of PID's for example.
In this case you should see a lot of "defunct" processes in your ps output.

Open Environment error : Resource temporarily unavailable

Hi,
I use Berkeley DB 4.5.2 in a system with Intel PXA255, 64MB memory, 512MB USB disk. The system is Linux 2.4.18, compiler is arm-linux-gcc 2.95.3. I put database files on the USB disk (because the file size is more than 72MB), and the disk still got 70% free space (so I don't think the problem is caused by the disk space).
The same program is run pretty well on PC, Intel P4 3.0, 512MB memory, Red hat Linux 4.2 Enterprise (Linux 2.6.9-22), compiler is gcc 4.3.3.
But it could not even open the Environment on the board. One program shows error message:
Environment open failed: Resource temporarily unavailable.
The other program shows error message:
unhandled page fault at pc=0x00019808, lr=0x000197f4 (bad address=0x000000dc, code 0)

They are using the same code:
#define __DEBUG 1
ret = db_env_create(&VitalEnv, 0);
if (0 != ret)
#if __DEBUG
fprintf(stderr, "Error in creating environment handle: %s.\n", db_strerror(ret));
#endif
return ret
}/*endif*/
env_flags = DB_CREATE | DB_INIT_MPOOL;
ret = VitalEnv->open(VitalEnv, "./Data", env_flags, 0);
if (0 != ret)
#if __DEBUG
fprintf(stderr, "Environmet open failed: %s.\n", db_strerror(ret));
#endif
return ret;
}/*endif*/
The only difference is that I put these codes in a function called OpenDB() for the second program, and just put these codes in main() for the first program.
And both of them could not open environment.
I have put the arm version libdb-4.5.so on the USB disk. Everything I did but the problem is still there.

Hi Lesslielee,
We will try to fix first the "Resource temporarily unavailable" issue. Is not very clear for me which/what/where application/databases you had moved and when.
Do you have Berkeley DB's additional error reporting turned on? With the error reporting turned on, do you see any additional error information when this exception is thrown? ( http://www.oracle.com/technology/documentation/berkeley-db/db/ref/debug/runtime.html )
From what I understand, when you are storing the databases on the disk (not on the USB drive), the tests are running well, right? When you are moving the database files on the USB drive, are you also moving the environment files? Storing environment files on an NFS file system is not supported.
When Berkeley DB database environment shared memory regions are backed by the filesystem, it is a common application error to create database environments backed by remote filesystems such as the Network File System (NFS), Windows network shares (SMB/CIFS) or the Andrew File System (AFS). Remote filesystems rarely support mapping files into process memory, and even more rarely support correct semantics for mutexes if the mapping succeeds. For this reason, we recommend database environment directories be created in a local filesystem.
Does the problem occur when you run the application for the first time in the new configuration? How did you moved the databases? How did you closed the environment last time?
For more information, please see the "Remote filesystems" section of the Berkeley DB Reference Guide, available in your download package or on our web site at: http://www.oracle.com/technology/documentation/berkeley-db/db/ref/env/remote.html
Thanks,
Bogdan Coman

Terminal: -bash: fork: Resource temporarily unavailable

I'm having
"-bash: fork: Resource temporarily unavailable" when I open up the terminal on my 10.4.6 system. The only way to remedy this issue seems to restart which is at minimum annoying. The other odd thing is when this occurs and if I open up the system preferences I can not interact with the GUI interface until I close the terminal. All the preferences are greyed out.

I figured out what the problem is. Seems like the 10.4 OS has a 100 process limitation. So if you are power user of all things OS X (i.e. dashboards, and at least 20 open apps) among other OS process you'll come across this limitation. Try to limit the number of process perhaps killing all your dashboard widgets might remedy the issue. Hopefully 10.5 resolves these users.. since 8 GB RAM shouldn't have hardly any limits except hmm upgrading to 16GB

TS1424 I get the error 'Store credit temporarily unavailable' when I try to buy an album. There is credit available. I have tried re-setting the cache and warnings and logging out of Itunes.

I get the message 'Store credit temporarily unavailable' when I try to buy an album. There is credit available. I have reset the cache and warnings and logged out of Itunes.

Apparently there is an issue if you try to make a purchase which is more than the amount from a gift card. It should charge the balance to your stored credit or debit card. It doesn't and displays this error instead. This issue is known by Apple but no fix date was given.

Export to Export Files backup failing w/Resource temporarily unavailable

Hello,
I'm trying to backup my RAC database through EM using "Export to Export Files" and exporting the entire database. When I run the "Test Disk Backup", the directory tests with success. However, about 11 minutes into the job, the job fails with the errors below. I am using Oracle 10gR2 on Linux x86_64 and trying to do the backup using a Samba server.
ORA-31693: Table data object "SDE_DL"."SDE_BLK_42" failed to load/unload and is being skipped due to error:
ORA-19502: write error on file "/backups/EXPDAT01.DMP", blockno blah
ORA-27072: File I/O error
Linux-x86_64: Error: 11: Resource temporarily unavailable
and on and on...
Any suggestions?
Thank you,
Mimi

Hello Ashok,
This could very well be my problem. I am trying to export 8TB of data! I'll check out the mounting options to figure out how to mount it with the largefiles option.

Login: fork: Resource temporarily unavailable - how can i fix this?

I use Terminal to log in remotely to some off-site unix servers. Previously, I could open several terminal shells at once, but lately if I try to open more than one, I get this message: <login: fork: Resource temporarily unavailable>. Any ideas how to fix this? There was a suggestion here: http://ruminate.net/pdm/mt/osx_tips/os_x_tiger_104_process_limitssolution.html but I'm not sure how to implement it. Thanks for any help.

I'm glad it's working for you, but am not convinced that the firewall was the problem.
The error message you got means that the server didn't have enough resources to process your login. This could be insufficient RAM, disk space or, more likely process space. If the server is very busy and has lots of processes running it can't fork a new process for your login.
Problems like that are usually transient - trying again a few minutes later may work since some processes have finished and have freed up process space.
You should look at what's running on the server and take whatever steps you think appropriate to reduce the number of processes running.

-bash: fork: Resource temporarily unavailable

i cannot find an answer or fix to this problem.
if i open a terminal as any user (i have a couple of user accounts in case i have
problems with one), i get the message
-bash: fork: Resource temporarily unavailable
first, what is causing this?
second, how can i fix this? i need to use my terminal to work and i can't.

No expert by any means, but historical posts going back to OS X 10.4 indicate this is a limit on number of concurrent processes and is controlled by a number of config files. Do a search on "fork: resource temporarily unavailable" and you'll start to find the discussion.
I'm trying to decide whether I want to try the fixes for the thing I'm trying to do or find an OS X server and run it where it is designed to run in the first place. I'm trying to run this particular software on OS X 10.6 desktop and getting the error. I'm assuming OS X server has fewer governors on it and can run more processes.

Rctl exceeded "fork: Resource temporarily unavailable"

We experienced some unexpected virtual memory behavior on two new
T1000s so started looking into various resources settings. After
turning on logging using rctladm we started getting messages every few
minutes about various resources being exceeded. We then used projmod
to set the various limits as shown below but continue to get the
syslog messages as if the values had not been set. The processes that
are showing excesses are typically running programs such as nfsmapid,
ncsd, or our own applications, none of which are likely to actually be
exceeding the indicated resources. In fact, pfile indicates that
there are at most about 20 file descriptors of any sort in use by any
of these processes.

1) Is it expected that an out-of-the-box T1000 should be exceeding
resources with normal system programs?
2) Why does the setting of new process.max-file-descriptor not appear
to affect the limits of new processes in the project?
3) Could any of this be related to the original problem we are having
that one can allocate memory only up to the point that physical memory
is almost full at which point the allocation slows down to almost
nothing and other processes get the error "fork: Resource temporarily
unavailable"?

How many process currently running
The process statistics utility, prstat, shows us a top-level summary of the processes that are using system resources. The prstat utility summarizes this information every 5 seconds by default and reports the statistics for that period.
The -L option causes prstat to show one thread per line instead of one process per line.
How many process running for per user
Again you can use prstat with the below option .
-u euidlist
Report only processes whose effective user ID is in
the given list. Each user ID may be specified as
either a login name or a numerical user ID.
No. of opened files for per process.
A list of files open within a process can be obtained with the pfiles command.
Total no. of opened files for all process.
Try running lsof as root . One open file is displayed per line and, unless you specify otherwise, all open files from all processes are displayed.
No. of process limit
Check out this link :
http://blogs.sun.com/hasham/entry/solaris_10_increasing_number_of
No. of open file limit
Each process has a hard and soft limit for the number of files it can have opened at any time; these limits are administered through the Resource Controls infrastructure by process.max-file-descriptor . Limits can be viewed with the prctl command.
$ prctl -n process.max-file-descriptor $$

If no resource controls are set for the process, then the defaults are taken from system tuneables; rlim_fd_max is the hard limit, and rlim_fd_cur is the current limit (or soft limit). You can set these parameters systemwide by placing entries in the /etc/system file.
set rlim_fd_max=8192
set rlim_fd_cur=1024
The limits can be set from the shell also using the limit/ulimit commands.

Just noticed that this is still open... a reboot did it
However maybe someone has an idea how this happened and how to prevent similar situations in the future, if possible ?
