Hi,
I'm encountering an odd problem while running a python script which
calls a C program
called 'st_time' :
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "ccdd.py", line 177, in ?
answer=proc_request(conn,addr,request) # proc
the
request
File "ccdd.py", line 69, in proc_request
answer = '1&%s'%(ccd.exec_function(fct,arg))
File "/opt/OFXB/lib/python2.4/site-packages/ccdlib.py", line 204, in
exec_function
return apply(self.funcs[name],args)
File "/opt/OFXB/lib/python2.4/site-packages/ccdlib.py", line 731, in
mpose
answer = self.download()
File "/opt/OFXB/lib/python2.4/site-packages/ccdlib.py", line 1152,
in download
st = libastro.st_time(ut,LON)
File "/opt/OFXB/lib/python2.4/site-packages/libastro.py", line 169,
in st_time
raise e
OSError: [Errno 12] Cannot allocate memory
This error is far from appearing each time I invoke st_time. To debug
this problem,
a friend of mine tried to get memory information as soon as this error
is raised. Here, it
returns :
MemTotal: 774856 kB
MemFree: 22952 kB

PageTables: 2472 kB
VmallocTotal: 245752 kB
VmallocUsed: 8992 kB
VmallocChunk: 236384 kB
Nothing indicates a lack of memory.
I'm running the following version of python :
Python 2.4.3 (#2, Apr 27 2006, 14:43:58)
[GCC 4.0.3 (Ubuntu 4.0.3-1ubuntu5)]
Does somebody has an idea about what's happening ?
Many thanks for your time,
Brice
