128.0. "Bookreader just goes away." by AKO455::SHEPRO (B-I-Biky-bi B-O-Bo) Mon Feb 06 1989 13:56

    Every so often, the Bookreader process just goes away.  I start
    the bookreader with the Clock and calendar as three separate
    sub-process: SPAWN/NOWAIT/INPUT=NL: RUN SYS$SYSTEM:DECW$BOOKREADER
    
    Am I short on job quotas or something?  what can I look for?

128.1	DECwindows bug	RTL::HARROW	POSIX what?	`Mon Feb 06 1989 15:15`	7
	If you have DECW$DISPLAY defined to be a remote node, then I've already QARed this problem. It appears to be a server bug. The recommended workaround was to set ASTLM > 100. This is QAR 2117 in the decwindows-ift database. It is not closed yet, but I got an answer by phone. -Jer
128.2	increase AST quota	STAR::KRAETSCH	NeXt Window Please	`Tue Feb 07 1989 21:21`	5
	This appears to be a problem involving the Transport, RMS, and AST's. Try bumping AST quota to 50-100 and see if that helps. joe
128.3	Server bug can cause this	DECWIN::FISHER	Burns Fisher 381-1466, ZKO3-4/W23	`Tue Feb 07 1989 22:28`	8
	We just discovered a server bug which may well be causing this problem. Unfortunately, there is no workaround for the particular problem I am talking about. There may be exeraserbating cicrumstances which are helped by ASTLIM, etc. Burns
