in reply to Re: Program hangs
in thread Program hangs
It is single-threaded, although it doesn't interact directly with SMTP, it passes a command to a different machine. The other machine actually forms the mail message.
The program is stopping printing right in the middle of printing a variable. This is the sort of thing that happens when you run out of disk space, although I have plenty of space in the filesystem.
The process can hang for days without moving. It took me a couple of days before I noticed the problem because there were no obvious signs of errors such as stderr, stdout, logfile entries. |

What does the other machine (the receiver) think is happening? Are the commands being passed down a constantly-open channel which is getting clobbered by an intervening firewall after a certain length of time?
Oh, and if this is on Linux, cat /proc/sys/fs/file-nr while the program is hung. You may have run out of filehandles (although you'll have a hard time launching a shell etc. if that's the case). | [reply]
