when the weekly script runs, I think it's something like makewhatis or
something like that...or if I just run updatedb from cli - I get several
processes that hang
#ps aux
root 4265 0.0 0.1 3092 948 ? S 04:02 0:00 /bin/bash
/usr/bin/run-parts /etc/cron.daily
root 4656 0.0 0.1 3356 904 ? SN 04:02 0:00 /bin/sh
/etc/cron.daily/slocate.cron
root 4658 0.0 0.1 2892 588 ? S 04:02 0:00 awk -v
progname=/etc/cron.daily/slocate.cron progname {????? print
prognaroot 4659 0.0 0.1 2224 700 ? DN 04:02 0:00
/usr/bin/updatedb -f NFS,SMBFS,NCPFS,PROC,DEVPTS -e
/tmp,/var/tmp,/usr/tmp,c
and from that moment on, I cannot get any perl based program to run.
I cannot kill the /usr/bin/updatedb even with kill -15 process#
This was an upgrade from RH 9
