I just fetched today's cvs (1/30/04 11:10:31). Compiles/installs on my test machine (ASUS A7V, 900 MHZ). However, If I try to compile on my production machine (Elite K7S5A, 2.4GHz, 512MB) while * is running the zaptel and asterisk compiles seg fault. I am assuming that they will compile correctly if I bring down * and rmmod the zaptel driver. 0.7.1 compiled and is now running.

Is there a way to safely compile while * is running, so that I can minimize down time of the server?


Seg faulting compiles usually indicate a memory problem on the machine.
Not lack of size, but bad memory, badly seated memory, etc...  There's
no reason asterisk running, or the drivers being loaded, should
cause a compile to seg fault.

Yes, that's what I had thought also, providing that you add in paging file errors. And yet the machine in question is, and has been, running * flawlessly for over a month now - and continues to do so during and after the compile. Nevertheless, Steven Critchfield's comment about GCC unmasking marginal memory is interesting, and in all probability correct. I have since noticed that if I continue to retype make, that the compile will frequently bomb at a later point in the compile. My next task is to track down the memory problem.

On the other hand, the load of a compile could affect asterisk's
performance...

True, but not really relevant in this case.
