- Getting a strange error on a DECstation 5000/20 client:
-
- <14>danel# ls
- sorry, pid 1332 was killed: exec: error reading data area
- Killed
-
- The server is a 5000/200.
- At the moment it is just with ls command though before it was happening with
- ps.
- I can cat files and echo * fine.
-
- error log looks like this:
