One child process died. Exiting

@vladimir What version are you running? I saw this recently happen consistantly with 1.6.4. The trapper processes seemed to be very unstable and as soon as a remote client would try and send something... boom! Zabbix died. The only way I could fix it for now was to reduce the number of trappers to 0, which fortunately was not a big deal in this environment as we don't use them.

This is interesting. Could you provide us with more details about it. Zabbix server's log file would be excellent!

nelsonab, yes, version is 1.6.4
but you wrong, zabbix died before it has been fully started

Sometimes it would start, then die, sometimes run for a second and then die.

@Alexei I'll see what I can do. The environment is 1.6.4 server and 1.4.x clients.

Zabbix was started!!!

Port net-snmp was recompiled without "dmalloc debug memory allocator" and all become allright.

Nice, what is your environment aka what Linux distro and version?

I am still experiencing this problem. Running latest Debian Lenny with Zabbix MySQL server 1.4.6-1. Any more suggestions how this can be fixed? A log with debug information does not show any extra clues. syslog however shows: Jun 3 13:47:49 monitor kernel: [1052093.583399] zabbix_server[1813]: segfault at 1 ip 08050e0b sp bfc452a0 error 4 in zabbix_server[8048000+4a000]
