In my November report I wrote about an annoying problem I had with eComStation and its cache. An alleged memory leak caused the server to crash about every 50 hours. Rebooting the server every other day held the problem at bay - but that's not a long term solution!
A reader, David Graser, suggested that I could try some of the kernels from IBM's test case site. While the kernels didn't solve the problem, they didn't affect the (lack of) stability of my server either, so I kept the latest kernel and haven't experienced any problems.
What did solve the problem was FixPak 1 for eComStation, or at least it seems so: while I write this the server has been running uninterrupted for nearly 80 hours, something which haven't happened since I installed eComStation three months ago (I only installed the FixPak recently).
I wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
Please do not hesitate to send me any other news from around Scandinavia.
