do i have a virus???
nice board, makes interesting reading! glad to know im not the only one to have problems!!
last week, our database started to crash (run on unix / solaris) for no apparant reason. the problem seems to be intermiant which lead us to believe it may be a hardware problem causing the database problems.
aprox 6 weeks ago our sun console decided to reboot itself for no apparant reason, but seemed to be ok...thought no more of it.
this was followed a couple of weeks later the system going extremely slow, and when checking the "perf meter" there was a gravestone with R.I.P icon on it. as the perf had stopped responding we thought it was connected to the perf meter (we were aware of extra work being carried which could slow the system). this has now followed (after friday 13th july) with some d/b errors? is any1 able to throw any light on this. the sun box is connected to our novell server via nfs thus in theory giving it access to our emails etc etc
thank you

apport-cli
apport-cli(1) General Commands Manual apport-cli(1)
NAME
apport-cli - Command line client for reporting problems
SYNOPSIS
apport-cli
apport-cli -c report
apport-cli -f -p package
apport-cli -f -P pid
DESCRIPTION
apport automatically collects data from crashed processes and compiles a problem report in /var/crash/. This is a command line frontend for
reporting those crashes to the developers. It can also be used to report bugs about packages or running processes.
For desktop systems with a graphical user interface, you should consider installing the GTK or Qt user interface (apport-gtk or apport-qt).
apport-cli is mainly intended to be used on servers.
When called without any options, it processes the pending crash reports and offers to report them one by one. You can also display the
entire report to see what is sent to the software developers.
OPTIONS
-c report, --crash-file=report
Instead of walking over the new crash reports in /var/crash/, report a particular report in an arbitrary file location. This is
useful for copying a crash report to a machine with internet connection and reporting it from there.
-f, --file-bug
Report a (non-crash) problem. Requires specifying --package or --pid. This will automatically attach information about your operat-
ing sytem and the package version etc. to the bug report, so that the developers have some important context.
-p package, --package=package
When being used in --file-bug mode, specify the package to report the problem against.
-P pid, --pid=pid
When being used in --file-bug mode, specify the PID (process ID) of a running program to report the problem against. This can be
determined with e. g. ps -ux.
ENVIRONMENT
APPORT_IGNORE_OBSOLETE_PACKAGES
Apport refuses to create bug reports if the package or any dependency is not current. If this environment variable is set, this
check is waived. Experts who will thoroughly check the situation before filing a bug report can define this in their ~/.bashrc or
temporarily when calling the apport frontend (-cli, -gtk, or -qt).
