at least I assume it is an endless loop, terminated by a core dump.

On the weekend hbombaix /tmp was filled 100%, when QA started the output.log was
slightly above 1 GB.
I attach the first 200 lines and the core file
Attached file core file
output and results preserved in kentuckyderby/export/svbld/20000220.1

This has happened again, this time on orville. All QA stalls, since the grep in
the huge file takes a long time (and is then usually killed, because it is
assumed to be hanging)
If you don't have time to fix this soon please talk to me about it, or assign
the bug to me.
Thanks

Bug 69582 endless loop on EOF reading Extensions
Status: NEW → RESOLVED
Closed: 23 years ago
Resolution: --- → FIXED
The fix needed in the scripts is instead of writing to a file and then
redirecting stdin from this file redirect directly from the shell script.
Also, I an going to put a "df" in the init to see if we have enough room (for
other files). For now the $TMP is redirected to test_results/security (to see if
there are leftover tmp files)
Reopening and reassigning to myself for the fixes in the script

I will not do a df on /tmp since every OS will give different output - this is
not worth it. I will try to make it point to the HOSTDIR/tmp while QA is running
