It does so by creating a subprocess to perform the tests. The errno=12 indicates there was not enough memory on your system to create the child process. Without knowing anything about your system, its difficult to say why, but perhaps too many concurrent users or too many running processes, or memory-intensive processes?<br><br></div>RB<br><br></div><div class="ecxgmail_extra"><br><div class="ecxgmail_quote">On Fri, May 15, 2015 at 1:00 PM, Vanúcia Schumacher <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:vanucia-schumacher@hotmail.com" target="_blank">vanucia-schumacher@hotmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="ecxgmail_quote" style="border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex;">
