Hi Chris,
Thanks for your reply; The upgrade i'm talking about is just a term
describing that we switched from FreeBSD 4.10 to 6.2. Its new hardware; its
hardware on which FreeBSD 4.10 will not run.
So in effect its not an upgrade, though the symptoms did not show on
apache-1.3.37 + nfsmounted homepages under FreeBSD 4.10.
If perl would be the problem, the OS shouldn't panic IMHO. Perl in this case
is writing a fairly large guestbook file (eg. 2 Mb), and does this through
perls own:
open(BOOK, "+<$file") or die;
This $file is located on an NFS mounted filesystem. It'll get read and
written.
The NFS filesystem is mounted with "rw,nosuid,intr,bg,resvport,nfsv3". I
have tried mounting without intr, but panics keep happening. The NFS server
is a Netapp filer.
This is a production environment, so I can't go updating to the latest
current.
Kai
