AIX 5.2 clientdata problem (was: Note: Hobbit 4.2 release planned for Thursday Aug. 1 0.)

Hi Chris,

it's quite a while ago - June 8, if my archive search is correct.
http://osiris.hswn.dk/hobbiton/2006/06/msg00203.html

Have you tried running a current snapshot on this server? It looks 
like it might be the same problem that You and I worked on for 
quite some time between the beta-release and the RC-release - 
the one where the clientdata task terminated without any apparent 
reason. This mail started it: 
http://osiris.hswn.dk/hobbiton/2006/06/msg00279.html

If it's still an issue with the current snapshot, I'd like to see
the hobbitlaunch.log file also. And could you send me the output
from the "ipcs -m" command, please?


Regards,
Henrik
