Subj: Re: bsubmit giving a memory fault.
Shankar,
This error:
>/usr/sde/ode3.0/tools/alpha_ace/bin/bsubmit[227]: 359 Memory fault
was caused by a segmentation violation in either ksh or the bsubmit binary;
it either ran out of memory or referenced a bad memory location.
The bsubmit you call is a ksh "wrapper" which checks your defect number
and then calls the bsubmit binary (in /usr/sde/..../bin/ode/bsubmit).
Here's how you can back up and restart the bsubmit, but I'd also like
you to answer a few questions below to help us understand what might
have happened.
I've checked the steelos/logs/bsubmit.hold file and found the entry in
question:
: Surya_Prasad; Date: 11/4/96; Time: 18:52
./usr/bin/rm/rm.c
I then checked the rcs file for rm.c and found that this submit has not
yet taken the submit branch lock out on the file, and so it is safe to
"unwind" the bsubmit, as follows:
In a workon session for the sandbox, as Surya_Prasad, run:
$ sadmin -rm 18:52 -date 11/4/96
Check that the file, read-only, is still in the sandbox.
If it is not, then run this to put it back to the "bci'd" state:
$ bco -u /usr/bin/rm/rm.c
Now rerun the bsubmit from the beginning without the -resub.
Hopefully it will work ok this time.
Questions:
- How was the original bsubmit interrupted? Do you have a log of this?
- Did you try this more than once and find it repeatable?
- Was the bsubmit -resub run from the 'src' directory exactly of the sandbox?
- Have you successfully done a bsubmit before from this same system
configuration?
- What version and rev of the OS are you running?
- Are you running standard libc and standard ksh that came with the OS?
- Have you experienced any other memory problems?
Thanks... -josh

Hello,
A submit was interupted. Hence a resubmit was to be done
since it was already locked by the user.
The following is an error message we get when we try a
resubmit.
Hope you can help us in this matter.
Thanks,
