Date: Thu, 16 Jan 1997 10:40:29 +0100 Organization: ComeNet Technology Ltd Lines: 20 Message-ID: <ricky-1601971040290001@194.207.66.18> NNTP-Posting-Host: 194.207.66.18 X-Newsreader: Microsoft Internet Mail and News for Macintosh - 1.1 (34) Xref: euryale.cc.adfa.oz.au comp.unix.bsd.freebsd.misc:33892 When a user runs a script (on freebsd 2.1.6), the machine resets. Any one can help tell me why??? The scripts that cause problems are: ones that take large file as input, or can't open a file 3 lines like this (in perl) will cause the machine to open: open(FILE,"Doesn't exist) # didn't use || die $line=<FILE>; close(FILE); I know I can use || die but I think the system should just exit the program in a error state NOT reset the machine....
