Hi there,
We run Xymon 4.2.3, using both the proxy and the server in a multisite configuration. We recently added 15 new hosts to our configuration, and since doing so the server application appears to keep crashing. Running "ps -ef | grep hobbitlaunch" shows that this process no longer exists. Looking in the log files, it appears "rrd status" kept terminating with status 1. Since removing these hosts from the configuration, the server has managed to start up again.
I don't believe there is anything strange in the definition of these hosts - so have we reached a memory limit or otherwise in the application, and if so is there a fix for this? Such as increasing a variable somewhere?
Here's the output of bbtest if it helps:

Hi,
Could you give us those 15 hosts definitions ? (i suspect there might be a syntax error..)
try adding them one by one

Sure, they are in 3 different configuration files which are included in the main bb-hosts file. Also note that they are currently commented out due to it causing the issue!:
h1.conf: #subpage memcached Memcached #10.6.73.1 h1-mem01 # NET:H1 ping ssh #10.6.73.2 h1-mem02 # NET:H1 ping ssh #10.6.73.3 h1-mem03 # NET:H1 ping ssh #10.6.73.4 h1-mem04 # NET:H1 ping ssh

(I thought there were 15 new hosts, but it looks like there are only 12). I can't see any syntax issues here?

Oh how blind I am...I just noticed those in h3.conf have the same hostnames as those in h2.conf! That makes a lot of sense! Think I have answered my own question...
Thanks anyway!

Try just one page at a time? Not sure if you need "ping" on there.
