'CPU time limit exceeded' message

'CPU time limit exceeded' message

Post by Geoff McHug » Tue, 07 Apr 1998 04:00:00



I've just recently installed Caldera OpenLinux Base v1.1 on my 128MB
P133.  I am now trying to install XFree86 3.3.2 as it supports the
Revolution 3D video card.  However, each time I try to run the extract
utility I get a 'CPU time limit exceeded' message and the process
aborts.

I noticed this message on a few occasions when I was installing Linux
also.  Has anyone else encountered this message or have any idea what is
causing it?  If I even knew where to begin looking!!! :)

Thanks in advance for any assistance

Apparently your user resource limit for CPU time is set too low (this
is very odd!).  Do "help ulimit".  If your user CPU time limit (ulimit
-t) value is anythign other than unlimited you will need to change one
of the system initialisation files.

1. Exceeded CPU time limit(coredump)

I am having a curious problem.  I'm running Tru64 v 5.0 on an
AlphaServer DS20 with dual cpu's.  I have a process that I run every
weekend and just recently I've started getting problems with it.  I get
the message: Exceeded CPU time limit(coredump) and the process dies.
When I type 'limit' I get this:
cputime         unlimited
filesize        unlimited
datasize        14680064 kbytes
stacksize       216891 kbytes
coredumpsize    unlimited
memoryuse       4105296 kbytes
vmemoryuse      14680064 kbytes
descriptors     4096

Can anyone tell me why I'm getting this error?  I'm running this from
crontab, does that make a difference?

Thanks
