Memory Pool Error/s with VxWorks

Hi,
I am running Berkeley DB under vxWorks and am encountering memory pool errors. The version we are using is 4.5.20, and we are building a "Concurrent Data Store Application" (small footprint, MIPS64gnu).
The environment flags are set as follows:
(DB_INIT_CDB | DB_INIT_MPOOL | DB_CREATE | DB_SYSTEM_MEM)
The cache size is set to 1MB.
I believe I have found the offending routine. It is __db_tmp_open in db-4.5.20\env\env_open.c.
Initially I was receiving the following error:
db_starchoice: unable to create temporary backing file
db_starchoice: temporary open: /ata00/oracle/temp/BDB0-*/*: S_dosFsLib_ILLEGAL_N
AME
So, I modified the above mentioned routine to generate a legal file name. At which point the file name became:
/ata00/oracle/temp/BDB87bc4940
87bc4940 is the PID in hex.
I am no longer told that the file name is illegal, however, an exception is thrown with the following trace:
800a5bdc vxTaskEntry +c  : excTask (0, 0, 0, 0)
8014dca8 excTask +b8 : sigPendKill (eeeeeeee, eeeeeeee, eeeeeeee, eeeeeee
e)
80159c28 sigPendKill +118: 801592b8 (eeeeeeee, 8014dcb0, 0, 0)
80159300 sigPendDestroy +248: sigismember (0, 0, 0, 7400ff01)
Do I have some configuration incorrect? Is there a known problem with this code, for which I am unable to find reference to?
Thx,
Coralie

I have more information about this problem.
If I "disable" the routine __os_zerofill() in os_fzero.c, by having it always return (0), I no longer get an exception and my application appears to run smoothly. However, I have not determined what in this routine leads to the exception. And, I have no idea what the short and long term consequences of "disabling" this routine will be....

  • Memory access error combined with "internal error SIGSEV"

    In a code that I work on, I get a memory access error, when i allocate memory to a pointer via new.
    It says " Attempting to write 4 bytes at address <address>
    which is <x> bytes past the end of heap block of size <size of class allocated throug new> at <address>
    After this there is one function call into which i try to step in and i get
    "internal error : signal SIGSEV (no mapping at the fault address)" and core is dumped after raising abort signal.
    But i dont get any problem with regard to function mapping, when i try stepping over the function and function performs its usual action. Also the binary works fine with no runtime exceptions. It gives this mapping problem while debugging.

    Indeed, it is dbx error. Seeing that gdb is involved, I suspect DWARF-related problem. You are using dbx that is almost 4 years old; at the very least, please install all patches; better solution is to upgrade to latest version, it works much better with gcc compilers.
    The latest version of Sun Studio can be downloaded from here: http://developers.sun.com/sunstudio/downloads/
    Besides, it has much better IDE and more standard- (and gcc-) conforming C++ compiler, so you might as well try switching to Sun Studio C++ compiler for you project.

  • CD Boot: memory overflow error! Trying to install Bootcamp / Windows 7 on MacBook Pro 2009 with external superdrive

    Hi all,
    I'm trying to install Bootcamp on my machine.
    I was running Parallels before but need Bootcamp in order to run heavy software on the PC side (e.g. Rhino/Maxwell/etc).
    I have a Macbook Pro 17" from around 2009, running Mountain Lion 10.7.3. 
    Problem is, my internal CD Drive is broken and doesn't read discs, so it couldn't read the Windows installation disc (Windows Home Premium 7 64 bit - OEM System Builder Pack).
    So, I rang Apple to try to fix it and they said it would be cheaper and faster to buy an external SuperDrive.
    I explained that I wanted it to install bootcamp and they said, fine.
    However when I bought the SuperDrive, it turns out its only supposed to be working with new Macbook Pro with Retina display, and other machines that don't have internal cd drives.
    At first it didnt work, but then I found a helpful website which enabled it to work on my machine.
    So I went ahead and started installing Windows through the BootCamp Assistant.
    It partitioned my hard drive - success!
    But then it turned into black screen, with message saying "CDBOOT: Memory overfloor error"
    Help please!!!
    I suspect the problem is either:
    a) Old Macbook Pro can't boot from the Windows disk
    or
    b) The Windows OEM version is somehow not designed to work with Mac. I bought it secondhand off a guy, thinking it was the full version, silly thing to do!
    Your thoughts and help is seriously appreciated!
    Tomorrow I'm going to the Apple Store and also to buy a brand new copy of Windows, I guess.

    This has been resolved. It turned out that in spite of the message at the end of installation - "Windows could not complete the installation. To install Windows on this computer restart the installation" Windows was installed successfully but the problem was the Bootcamp drivers, it could not read them(install them) from my original OSX Istall DVD and I thought that that the whole package was not installed successfully. I will copy the intructions here as well since this thread may attract lots of other people with similar problem who may think it was not a good installation. Here you go:
    Ok, after 3 sleepness nights I have found a solution and finally have a working Windows 7 Ultimate. I hope this will be helpful for everyone having similar issues and not have to go through the same nightmare.
    Right away after logging in Windows for the first time insert the original Snow Leopard Install DVD and if Windows does not read it or install any drivers after clicking on setup.exe do the following:
    Right-click on Start » Programs » Accessories » Command Prompt
    Select Run as Administrator
    Type cd /d D:, then press Enter
    Type cd Boot Camp\Drivers\Apple, then press Enter
    Type BootCamp64.msi, then press Enter
    If you do not how to right click before installing the drivers the following:
    Click on Start
    Enter cmd in the search box
    Instead of hitting the Enter key use Ctrl + Shift + Enter and will open a dialog box
    Click Yes at the prompt and you will be running as an administrator.
    If you do not have the original install DVD go the this link and follow the instructions(including the ones from the last comment):

  • Hp officejet pro l7590 with blinking memory card error message

    My all-in-one printer constantly blinks the yellow exclamation point and has the message Memory Card Error for no apparent reason.  I have not used a memory card.  It just decided to show the message and blink.  I turned it off and on again, with no change.  How do I make it stop?

    Experiencing the same problem, so did some troubleshooting of my own.  I am using Windows 7; however, the OS should not make a difference since this is the built-in card reader which can be used without a computer being connected.  Specifically, I was trying to read an SD card to make a proof sheet.
    I knew I had been able to read an older Compact Flash card, so tried that and was successful.  Then I tried an older SD card that is only 128MB -- no problem.  A closer look at the card causing the "Memory Card Error" message revealed that it is a 4 GB SD HC card.  The printer documentation includes Secure Digital in the list of supported memory cards, but not the newer variants.
    Clearly, the error message is caused by attempting to read a non-supported memory card.

  • Encore - Memory Allocation Error - With Dynamic Link

    CS4 using Vista
    The process (AdobeEncore.exe *32) gets stuck at 959,736K while 6GB is available.
    In the past I have built many DVDs using a Dynamic Link from Encore to Premiere Pro.
    Now they all end in errors: Memory Allocation Error & Unable to Create Image Buffer.
    I monitored the process in the Windows Task Manager.
    The memory use for the (AdobeEncore.exe *32) process grows until it reaches  959,736K.
    The memory use stops there but the process continues for a while and then Encore stops with the errors.
    I guess is that (AdobeEncore.exe *32) has become limited to 1GB but the is plenty of memory available.
    I can Import a file and make a DVD without using the Dynamic Link.
    Thanks

  • Memory allocation error with disk image

    I'm having recurring problems with a large encrypted sparseimage that I mount at /Users (an arrangement I prefer to FileVault.) The file contains one journaled HFS+ partition. Every so often, open files on the volume vanish or become unwritable. At the same time, I get a long series of messages in the system log of the form
    kernel[0]: disk4s2: memory allocation error.
    There's plenty of memory available. When this happens, I have to log out all staff users, then unmount and remount the image. When I do so, fsck finds corrupted i-nodes, which it's able to repair. All is then well for a few days, except that the files that were affected when the problem occurred are gone and have to be replaced. I've tried the obvious things many times: creating a new image file from backups, deleting kernel caches, etc.
    This looks like a bug in the HDI driver. I'd be thankful for genuine insight from anyone who actually knows something. Responses such as "Repair permissions" or "Reinstall Mac OS X" aren't needed. Thanks.

  • Error message 'memory card error' with SD card on C5180

    Photosmart C5180 displays 'memory card error' when SanDisk SDHC inserted.  (The card is not damaged, it's new & works in camera.)  I've been unsuccessful in finding  answers on HP site.  Any help most appreciated.  Thanks much.

    Looking at the product specification, I see "High Capacity" (SDHC) memory is NOT supported on the device:

  • All CS2 apps crash with "Read Only Memory Exception" error.

    Machine Specs.
    Apple G5 1.8ghz DP
    OS X 10.4.10
    It doesn't matter which one I open, they all crash with the same error. This started when a user placed a support ticket for their mac not starting up. I wasn't able to save the user so I created a new user, and then moved their desktop files over to the new user. However the only files I moved were those on the desktop, and their Notes data directory.
    Thinking my job done I marked the tickets closed and walked away.
    I got a call later when the user came into the office and the issue was that Indesign CS2 was crashing with a "Read Only Memory Exception" error. I first deleted the Preferences on the machine. That didn't work.
    So I created a new user to see if it was the user causing the errors. I received the same error when opening Indesign CS2 from the brand new user account. I also tested all other CS2 programs and got the same errors.
    Next I tried deleting the CS2 programs and re-installing them. No luck, same error, even with a new user. I have not re-installed any plug-ins with the new App installs yet.
    Removed all fonts, and ran a font cache cleaner. Same error.
    Finally, the last thing I've tried is to manually remove every adobe application on the machine. Acrobat 5/6/7, CS1, CS2...etc. I have also removed any Adobe files/folders in the //library/, and /$home/Library/.
    Yet I still get the same error. Short of a complete wipe I'm not sure where to proceed next. I'm really confused and hoping someone can give me some clues.

    Thanks to a comcast permissions error any new files I upload to my comcast.net pages requires the administrator username/password to even see the file to download it. Simply giving out the URL for new files results in page not found errors.
    So for the forseeable future I don't see any way to upload this file correctly. Its there on my webspace all 63megs of it. If I login through the FTP account I can upload and download to my hearts content but since anonymous access is disabled I'm not giving out my administrator login info.
    I've got a gig of space, using 22mb of it, and can't upload any more files because no-one has permissions to access them.
    I spent a half hour on the phone with comcast trying to figure this out. However I don't know whats going on with their end. I have a trouble ticket open for a level 3 tech, we'll see whats going on.
    So the Font Scrubber will remain unavailable for the time being unless someone wants to give me guest upload access to a FTP account. I'm not opening a fileshare account with anyone, don't like'm.

  • Memory full error with printing pdf

    Occasionally I get a memory full error with printing pdf (Cmd-P - then use save PDF on lower left dialog screen). This is when just printing a few pages.
    Why Am I getting this and how can I fix this?

    I am not sure why but I have noticed some Adobe products when used to convert html documents (web pages) to pdf, can produce very large files.
    Try using Apple's Preview to see if those 'memory full' messages still occur.
    I am presuming you have plenty of free hard drive space and also sufficient RAM so suggesting it is an application bug about memory that is at issue and not actually a lack of physical memory.

  • Memory Full error when using Main Report Preview in VStudio 2010

    Framework 4.0.30319

    SAP Version- 13.0.2000.0
    CR 2008 on local machine- 12.2.0.290
    I don't get memory full error when I run the report with my locally installed cr 2008.  If I go into my visual studio and do a main report preview I get memory full error.
    I get this error running same report in cr 2008- MochiKit is undefined.  An error has occurred in the script on this page.  file:///c:/Program%20(x86)Business%20Objects/Common/4.0/Crystalreportviewers12/js/crviewer/html.js
    I can get past that error and report works fine.  I can take the rpt file in vs2010 and it runs from the aspx page with the viewer.  But I ca't do a preview from the editing of the rpt file.
    Any way to trouble shoot where the memory problem is when doing a preview? Makes it really hard to test other dlls when it does this.

    Are you a Developer or QA or end user? Have you discussed this with your Developer at all? We seem to keep going around in circles. Your Developer should know what he did and how to deploy your app and CR assemblies and what to use.
    Subject line is VS 2010, CR for VS 2010 is the only version supported in VS 2010. CR 2008 doesn't have 64 bit runtime. therefore it's not an option, your WEB Servers app pool MUST run in 32 bit mode only if you are using CR 2008.
    "If I install the 64 bit version of SAP CR. Should the assembly change in the aspx files? different version number?" Nothing in your app, just deploy the 64 bit runtime and set your app pool to run in 64 bit mode.
    If you are using CR for VS 2010 then you can run your WEB server in 64 bit mode and use CR for VS 2010 64 redist files on your WEB server. Then all DB Drivers, Printers and anything else MUST be installed in 64 bit versions. This includes what ever dependencies your UFL has, they too must also support 64 bit platform.
    NO Additional requirements to be done or used for 64 bit WEB applciations, just requires IIS App Pool to be run in 64 bit mode and all dependencies available in 64 bits. ODBC DSN is created using the 64 bit ODBC Administrator, Printers support 64 bit applications.
    And your UFL and any of it's dependencies must be located in as well as GAC'd if it's required, once again check with your UFL developer:

  • Memory full error

    I'm getting "memory full error" during generation of report. CR version is 8.5. The report contains 2 sub reports. Can anyone suggest what exactly the problem is and what could be the solution ... ??
    Thanks in advance ...

    And if you run the report int he Designer do you get the same error?
    If not then what is the application doing when it gets the error?
    What have you done to debug the issue?
    Yes, getting the same error in designer also. My application is actually passing data to CR for some inventory related display. The report contains 3 sub reports linked with main report. I'm debugging all the sub reports as I doubt that it can be bcoz of one of the sub reports.  Will check and update you ...

  • How can I prevent a memory flow error from occuring when using 3D contour plots?

    After displaying a single contour plot a number of times, LabVIEW crashes and reports a memory overflow error.  I only load a single 2D array, never storing previouls ones. I always index the data for contour plot 0, and don't explicitly store multiple 2D arrays in any buffer, such as appending data to a shift register.  There appears to be some sort of memory leak in LV when using this feature.  Is there a programatic way to flush the stored data in a contour plot prior to displaying the next 2D array of data?

    Hello MicTomReiSr,
    Is this in the LabVIEW development environment?  Are you making changes to the code and then running the VI?  Does the plot contain default data? Is the indicator cleared when the program stops?  The Plot Clean Data method may be what you're looking for.
    Remember that the development environment maintains an undo history of the changes you've made, and copies both the block diagram and FP contents each time.  If you have a lot of data displayed on the front panel you end up copying it multiple times.  This isn't a problem unless you're actively editing the VI in question.
    If you do need to edit and run the VI at the same time (perfectly reasonable, although you might want to consider a 64-bit installation or more RAM if you commonly work with resource-intensive data types like 3D plots) try reducing the Undo history length (Tools>>Options), although be aware that you won't be able to back up as many steps.
