Hi, Crash protection catches segmentation faul signals and try to kill that thread only. It works for "stupid" errors like a null pointer dereference, but in most scenarios, a crash means something in the process memory was corrupted. Ignoring it will just make it crash later on, thats why the default is false. Now if you have a crash, you should update to svn trunk and if it still happens, report it on Jira ( see http://wiki.freeswitch.org/wiki/Reporting_Bugs ) so someone can look at it and fix it.

Hi,
Is there any reason why the crash-protection parameter in switch.conf.xml defaults to false and are there any downsides to setting it to true? The documentation says it helps with certain types of crashes, can anyone tell me what sort of crashes in particular it helps to prevent as my freeswitch install seems to crash every few days.
Also, does anyone have an example of the monit setup for freeswitch to restart it when it fails?
Many thanks Andy _______________________________________________ Freeswitch-users mailing list Freeswitch-users@lists.freeswitch.org http://lists.freeswitch.org/mailman/listinfo/freeswitch-users UNSUBSCRIBE:http://lists.freeswitch.org/mailman/options/freeswitch-users http://www.freeswitch.org
