Summary: fork: Resource temporarily unavailable
Product: Portable OpenSSH
Version: 4.2p1
Platform: Other
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P1
Component: sshd
AssignedTo: bitbucket at mindrot.org
ReportedBy: avinashr at gmail.com
We have a production running openssh using 3.8.1p1 openssh version. I had
noticed by "googling" that this issue was also present in 4.2p1. We have
noticed that many times the ssh server complains in the Event Viewer log as
follows:
Fork: Resource temporarily unavailable.
This issue goes away (atleast for sometime) when the service is restarted. We
have many systems in production already using this service and this could be a
potential issue for us.
I have not noticed any issue with memory consumption whatsoever on the machine.
I have attached the log from the event viewer:
Event Type: Error
Event Source: sshd
Event Category: None
Event ID: 0
Date: 8/17/2005
Time: 2:35:40 PM
User: NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM
Computer: 400T-0940881
Description:
The description for Event ID ( 0 ) in Source ( sshd ) cannot be found. The
local computer may not have the necessary registry information or message DLL
files to display messages from a remote computer. The following information is
part of the event: sshd : PID 836 : error: fork: Resource temporarily
unavailable.
