Recently I've been seeing errors on one of our servers. From memory:
"The folder actions extension has run out of memory during the
processing of a folder actions script".
Fine. We have a script which resizes images, files 'em and updates
FileMaker running on a remote machine (it does this via program
linking). So, after processing a few tens of images, we get this error
message and the server falls over.
Question: Is there a known memory leak with folder action scripts under
Mac OS 9.2.2?
If not, what would cause a memory leak in AppleScript? How would I be
introducing this?
I have to admit to being somewhat puzzled as this box ran fine for a
couple of years under OS 9.0.4. It then started falling over very
frequently and, in an act of desperation, I upgraded to 9.2.2. The
frequency of crashes has fallen a little but now we're seeing (new?)
crashes due to the folder actions error. Has this been introduced by
the upgrade to 9.2.2? If so, what can I do to alleviate the problem?
TIA
