Varnish died while running in debug mode

[Andrew Knapp]

I have a instance of varnish running on FreeBSD 7.0-RELEASE, and it
crashed last night, and was wondering if anyone could shed some light on
this.

 

Here are the details (I'm running trunk as of r2554):

 

Error message:

start child pid 3155

Child said (2, 3155): <<Child starts>>

Child said (2, 3155): <<managed to mmap 1451951357952 bytes of

Varnish command line:

/usr/local/sbin/varnishd -d -d -a :80 -f /etc/varnish/photo.vcl -T
<internalip>:6082 -t 120 -w 10,700,30 -s
file,/c01/varnish/varnish_storage.bin,40% -u varnish -g varnish -p
lru_interval=3600 -h classic,500009 -P /var/run/varnish.pid

 

I can include my VCL file if that's useful. The child repeatedly died
last night also, with the same "Child not responding to ping" error
message, but this was the only time that the master crashed.

 

For what it's worth, I followed all the performance tips on the wiki
relating to freebsd. Also, the 40% of the /c01 mount is ~ 138GB.

 

Thanks,

Andy
