Seems to be related to discovery.
I appeard after I applied second patch from:

I can confirm it is discovery related.
No problems with discovery disabled.

Can you post your discovery rules?

Hi Alexei,

I have the same problem, but I have no patch applied. I'm using the default discovery rules for linux (they are automatically added during install). I just enabled them and I also changed the default 192.168.1.x to 192.168.0.x. That's all.

I downloaded the latest 1.4 version from your site yesterday. Please let me know what more info is helpful to you.

thanks,remi

Hi.

The same problem here. I'm using default discovery rules with modified IP range.

Here is a part of my zabbix_server log:

And here you can get the output of "strace -fx /usr/bin/zabbix_server -c /etc/zabbix/zabbix_server.conf"

I've tried to debug it using gdb, but didn't have any luck with it...

zbx_malloc: out of memory. requested '3221201621' bytes.

Any idea about this problem?
The problem appear after insert the data in hosts table, in a autodiscovery.

The solution!

char* DBdyn_escape_string(const char *str)

register int i;

char *str_esc = NULL;

// int str_esc_len; <---- The problem is here
int str_esc_len=0;

Is this also in 1.4.1??

[joluinfante]

I'm using the last free version (I suppouse), downloaded from cvs, and I did compile it.
I'm a newer on use of this product.
I'm learning...

./zabbix_server --version
ZABBIX Server (daemon) v1.4 (29 May 2007)
Compilation time: Jun 30 2007 19:38:05

Do you have a new version?
Where I can download it?

[joluinfante]

The bug is corrected in 1.4.1.

Hi, forum

How I use Zabbix 1.4 and I have the same problem

24204:20071016:114414 zbx_malloc: out of memory. requested '18446744073148864993' bytes.

Whene I increase "StartHTTPPollers=1" parameter

Can I resolve the problem with an upgrade or changeing "./src/libs/zbxdbhigh/db.c"?

I would recommend to upgrade to 1.4.2.

[vikty]

ok,
Now I am testing the zabbix 1.4.2 in my PC
