RV325 System Log Entries - Kernel - kernel: The MAC table overflow. (Neighbour table overflow.)
Hello,
I have a RV325 Router. Entries in the System Log are repeated over and over.
The messages are:
2015-01-20, 04:11:59

kernel: The MAC table overflow. (Neighbour table overflow.)
Packet traces point to thousands of ARP packets coming from the ISP to my WAN port. Most of the ARP packet sources/destinations are not even close to my ISP DHCP assigned IP.
Hi, Mark.
I'm not an Apache guru, but you may have two different issues here, depending on when the
kernel[0]: file: table is full
message is time-stamped relative to when you issue the
sudo apachectl start command.
1. Looking at the results of this Google search and some others tends to indicate that common causes for httpd could not be started are errors in the /etc/httpd/httpd.conf file.
You might also want to take a look at some of these other Discussions threads and in these "Networking and the Web" Discussion threads.
2. One explanation I've found for kernel[0]: file: table is full is here.
Hope these ideas help.
Good luck!

RV325 System Log Entries - Kernel - kernel: wrong ip[0],not_list[0]
Hello,
I have a RV325 Router. Entries in the System Log are mysterious to me and all my search results and reading are not relevant.
The Event-Type is - "Kernel", and the Message is "kernel: wrong ip[0],not_list[0]"
The Log entries occur every few minutes.
Does anyone know what this log entry signifies?
Also, does anyone know how to get an answer to any question from Cisco?
Thanks,
Michael DownsHello
yes, there are several existing discussions about same syslog message, like here, here or here, but neither of discussions points to solution.
If you device is still under warranty I would suggest you to open service request to Cisco Small Business Support Center to make this issue fixed permanently. -

Does this point to an upcoming hard disk failure? Or what else could that mean? TechTool pro does not show any errors.
Thanks in advance!What's the S.M.A.R.T. status on the drive? You can check it on Disk Utility (click on the device, not the volume), or you can use a freeware tool such as [SMARTreporter|http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/23232].
And you have probably run the regular Repair Disk/Repair Permissions/etc. routine on it, right? -
Is there a way to use the iMac's display mode with a Mac mini with out logging in first on the Mac mini (late2014)
im currently useing my Mac mini as a portable computer, I take it to the university and use the iMacs there as a monitor but before I can do that I have to log in to my Mac mini first which means doing it blind
is there a way to put the IMacs into display mode with out logging into my Mac mini first
or is there a portable monitor that I can use that will not require me to login firstThis
Target Display Mode: Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) - Apple Support
says:
How do I enable TDM?
Make sure both computers are turned on and awake.
Connect a male-to-male Mini DisplayPort or ThunderBolt cable to each computer.
Press Command-F2 on the keyboard of the iMac being used as a display to enable TDM.
Note: In Keyboard System Preferences, if the checkbox is enabled for "Use all F1, F2, etc. keys as standard functions keys," the key combination changes to Command-Fn-F2.
How do I exit TDM?
To leave TDM, press Command-F2 on the keyboard of the iMac that is in TDM. You can also exit TDM if you shutdown or sleep either computer or detach the cable.
Can I use a third-party keyboard or older Apple keyboard to enable TDM?
Some older Apple keyboards and keyboards not made by Apple may not allow Command-F2 to toggle display modes. You should use an aluminum wired or wireless Apple keyboard to toggle TDM on and -
Word 2008 & System Log Entries
Whenever I open Word 2008 there is a flood of never ending entries in System Log as long as Word 2008 is open. This is an example:
*Feb 20 14:40:10 Macintosh Microsoft Word[728]: CGBitmapContextGetData: invalid context*
*Feb 20 14:40:40: --- last message repeated 276 times ---*
Are others with Word 2008 and my Mac configuration receiving similar System Log entries?
If so, any suggestions for a solution?I have that same problem lookin in my console.. can anybody help us out here???

I cannot sync contacts between my iPhone 4s and MacBook Pro after I upgraded the Mac with the latest operating system software upgrade. Even the Mac Store couldn't help...
That is because that sync ability (for contacts and calendars) has been removed. Use iCloud instead.

Weird randomized log entries in kernel.log. Has anybody seen these?
Hi there,
i've just upgraded one of our servers (Mac Pro 10.7.3) to 16 GB of RAM. And on system start it generates log entries like the following. I think these might just be ok semantically. But why the **** do look like they do? And what is ALF?

Feb 14 14:05:02 holmes kernel[0]: ALF: ifnet_get_address_list_family error 12OK, I think I can safely say that it's been figured out. For those, who might repeat my mistakes: the reason for corrupted log entries was klogd, which was running alongside syslog-ng. First, it is redundant, as syslog-ng already has a kernel logger. Second, syslog/klod are known for corrupting logs sometimes, so syslog-ng or rsyslog is a better alternative...
Hope that is useful...

Help decoding System.log entry
Hello,
Does anyone know what this entry in the System log means?
Jul 23 14:40:19 www fseventsd[43]: failed to make the directory /private/tmp/278/E/.fseventsd (1/Operation not permitted)
Jul 23 14:40:59 www fseventsd[43]: scan_old: bailing out because device mounted @ /private/tmp/278/E has dls 0x0 and dls->fci 0x0
Does it mean I should do anything ... ?
Thanks in advance for the help.Probably not. fseventsd is the daemon responsible for reading filesystem events from a special device file in /dev/ (basically, from the kernel), and writing those events to log files stored in directories named .fseventsd.
Each filesystem volume that exists and has events associated with it will have a .fseventd directory at its root. For example, take a look in your / directory and you'll see one (to look inside, you'll need to be root or use sudo).
The whole reason for the daemon's existence is so that any other application on the Mac can take advantage of filesystem events without having to read directly from the kernel. Instead, they read from ordinary log files.
What that error is saying is that you have some external disk or disk image (i.e. volume) attaching itself to a directory in /private/tmp, and fseventsd is having problems setting up the proper log file directory in order to make filesystem events work for that volume. The "1/Operation not permitted" message is a standard error code, "1" being the numeric code and "operation not permitted" being the corresponding string code. This error typically means that the underlying filesystem (in this case, your mystery volume) is purposefully denying the creation of the object in a way _other than_ by permissions. For example, there could be a file flag set making the root of the filesystem immutable.
To understand more, it would be helpful to know what is attaching itself to that area in your tmp directory. Regardless, I don't think the errors are much to worry about... -
Hi guys,
I've been having a look through the system log and have have seen the following message come up a few times:
jnl: journal start/end pointers reset!
What does this mean, and should I be worried?
ThanksThanks for the input guys, but I think I've tracked down the cause.
It's my iPod.
I happened to have the console open when I connected my iPod, and lo and behold the following appeared in the log:
Feb 6 08:05:11 Poppy kernel[0]: jnl: journal start/end pointers reset! (jnl 0x1f78d7c; s 0x205800 e 0x205800)
Feb 6 08:05:24 Poppy kernel[0]: jnl: close: flushing the buffer cache (start 0x261000 end 0x265200)
The iPod was set to automatically sync and eject (ie. NOT enabled for disk use) These entries are for the system mounting and unmounting the iPod.
I re-enabled the iPod for disk use. After this, I noticed I had a couple of files still on the iPod from when it'd previously been used as a disk. I deleted those, unmounted the disk and then set it back to auto-sync in iTunes, and now the journal start/end pointers entry doesn't appear in the console.
Hopefully this will come in handy for someone else.
Thanks for your interest

Strange system.log entries. Have I been compromised? Related to ARD
Every two minutes my system.log posts a new entry that I am having a UDP WritePacket error 65 and it looks as if its trying to connect to a range of IP's that are hosted by pacbell. I do not have any systems outside my network on my ARD so not sure what the heck is going on. Here is a copy of the messages:

and that the computers were not online at the time (laptops etc).

Hi
Looking at my system log in Console I see this entry repeating every 30 seconds:
launchd: getty repeating too quickly on port /dev/fax, sleeping
Appreciate any help understanding its origin and how I can stop this process from recurring.
thanksThanks.
While Google didn't directly help, as I read various posts I realized checking "receive faxes on this computer" in System Preferences>Print & Fax panel was creating the repetitive message. Unchecking it stopped the message in the System Log.

Where is system.log located? (In the filesystem, outside of Console.app)
Where is the system.log file actually located? I know of course that I can view its contents in Console.app, but I just want to know where this text file is actually located. Or is it an almagamation of multiple files merged together or something, so that's why there's no actual location for it?
Macintosh HD > private > var > log
Found by using Reveal in Finder onthe menu in Console -
The following sequence keeps repeating every few seconds in the System Log. Does anyone have any ideas as to what it is all about? It appears to be referring to a Python script, but we have not "knowingly" executed any.

Dec 13 13:15:06 host1 com.apple.launchd[1] (com.apple.wikid): Throttling respawn: Will start in 8 secondsOkay - I also noticed this same issue as propably many others - did little study and found out the reason.
First of all - these should be standard locations, but let's make sure. I found out that wikid keeps it settings in /etc/wikid/wikid.conf - From error messages I checked source of last mention before process ended. Not pasting anything to here, I usually use PHP or C and try to stay away from python but I was able to make something out. Assert is a function that makes a test agains something, if this test's result is true (if I remember my studies right, I rarely use assert) it exits process. Why? Sometimes when programs start they need to make certain checks to avoid crashing - crashing isn't nice..
Anyway, test was for existency of directory where logfile(s) are kept. From same or another source file I also found out about location /etc/wikid, I ofcourse could had checked it from there in the first place, but I liked to follow the code a bit.. There I found file wikid.plist, opened it - a long conf file and finally there it was - logfile(s) are kept in location:
/Library/Logs/wikid
I created this directory and restarted, everything wasn't okay yet, as rights for that directory were incorrect. So I checked com.apple.wikid in LaunchDaemons and found out it runs as user _teamsserver and gid _teamsserver. So I changed rights for that uid and gid and everything was working after that.
Here's what you need to do in terminal to get it working:
#sudo mkdir /Library/Logs/wikid
#sudo chown -R teamsserver:teamsserver /Library/Logs/wikid
Then just restart wikid, there you go. This was my first post and I just created account for this.
Can be marked as SOLVED but 10.5.2 should make sure this directory gets created - either when ever it's missing and wikid is started, or just a empty dir created while upgrading to 10.5.2 -
System.log flooded with kernel[0]: On Board Mode Message
The Kernel keeps sending this message, apparently at a rather brisk pace. It's been going on for over a month apparently*. It's ogooglebar, also. Any thoughts on what it is? I'm not observing anything wrong on the system, but it's annoying when I need to rummage through the logs for whatever reason.
