[asterisk-users] Crash Hard, Crash Often

[David Gibbons]

<snip>
Problem is that its crashing for seemingly no reason at all, no errors
on the console, no logs (that I can find), nothing in /var/lib/messages
- its puzzeling! Management is screaming like banshees, calls are
dropping like flies, and all hell is about to break loose if I can't
stop asterisk from crashing every couple of hours, taking down any
Zaptel calls with it.

I am assuming you have debug turned on so that you can see what's going on when it crashes? If not, open the * console (asterisk -r) and type (core set verbose 100) and (core set debug 100). Then leave the console open so you can see if * was doing anything special when it crashed.
