Re: [Summary-Talk] processes exiting abnormally

[Jason Linhart <jason@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I can't tell exactly what is going wrong here, but I have some guesses.
First, you should upgrade to OS X 10.3.7. There are some kernel bugs
fixed in the newer versions that might have some bearing on this. Even
if it makes no difference to Summary, upgrading to 10.3.7 seems to be a
good bet at this point.

Second, how long has it been since the server was rebooted? If it hasn't
been rebooted in months then restart the machine and the problems might
well go away. OS X has demonstrated stability problem in some
configurations (but not in most others) after running without a restart
for long periods.

If it is possible for you to run this same Summary configuration on a
different machine for a little while we could rule out (or prove) any
possible hardware problems.

There was more than one bug with this symptom in Summary 2.5.1 and
earlier, but no one has reported this problem since then. This could be
yet another similar problem in Summary, but it seems worth checking out
some of the other possibilities first.

Dr. Seuss books . . . can be read and enjoyed on several levels. For
example, 'One Fish Two Fish, Red Fish Blue Fish' can be deconstructed
as a searing indictment of the narrow-minded binary counting system.
