- I have a program which receives data from stdin and uses it to update
- the AIX password database using setpwdb, setuserdb, putuserattr,
- putgroupattr, and all those nice things. However, after a while
- of this processing, it just stops dead, saying "Killed".
-
- Running it via dbx says it's receiving signal 9. But I'm the only user
- and I'm not sending it...
-
- So I ran an error log and there are a number of records that look like this:
-
- ERROR_ID TIMESTAMP T CL RESOURCE_NAME ERROR_DESCRIPTION
- C5C09FFA 0831102692 P S SYSVMM SOFTWARE PROGRAM ABNORMALLY TERMINATED
-
- ...presumably once for each time I'm creating this error.
-
- So I guess my questions are:
-
- 1) Where is this documented?
- 2) What does it mean?
- 3) How do I fix it?
-
- Any help would be appreciated!
