Hi,

----hobbitd.log----
2006-05-03 12:34:27 Oversize data/client msg from 130.223.5.20 truncated 
(n=815825, limit 524288)
First line: godzilla|sunos

----clientdata.log----
[bb at iris hobbit]$ cat clientdata.log
2006-05-03 12:34:28 Worker process died with exit code 0, terminating

----hobbitlaunch.log---
2006-05-03 12:34:28 Task clientdata terminated, status 1


How can this happend?
Has this been fixed in latest snapshot?
Which worker process died? (hobbitd_client is still running)

"godzilla" - a Solaris host - sent a too-large "client" message of
815825 bytes. There's a limit set in Hobbit for the size of client
message at 512 KB, so the message was truncated.

This is interesting. If the truncated message caused hobbitd_client to
crash, I would have expected a different exit-code. I'll have to check 
how it handles truncated messages.

Dont know, but apparently some input from your host caused it.

Probably not. Which version are you running?

It's restarted automatically by hobbitlaunch.
