[rabbitmq-discuss] rabbitmq dying

Thu Jun 19 11:23:22 BST 2008

RabbitMQ eventually crashed.

The following line is the last log entry (from startup.err):
eheap_alloc: Cannot allocate 1271244 bytes of memory (of type "heap").

/usr/sbin/rabbitmq-server: line 74: 32733 Aborted                 erl -pa
$(dirname $0)/../ebin ${START_RABBIT} -sname ${NODENAME} -boot start_sasl
+W w ${ERL_ARGS} -rabbit tcp_listeners '[{"'${NODE_IP_ADDRESS}'",
'${NODE_PORT}'}]' -sasl errlog_type error -kernel error_logger
'{file,"'${LOGS}'"}' -sasl sasl_error_logger '{file,"'${SASL_LOGS}'"}'

false -os_mon start_os_sup false -mnesia dir "\"${MNESIA_DIR}\""
${CLUSTER_CONFIG} ${RABBIT_ARGS} "$@"

So I guess it finally ran out of memory.
