Panic or segfault in Samba

[AdelM]

Hello

Since 2 months I'm getting (sometimes) the following message by mail :


Panic or segfault in Samba

The Samba 'panic action' script, /usr/share/samba/panic-action,
was called for PID 11350 ().

This means there was a problem with the program, such as a segfault.
However, the executable could not be found for process 11350.
It may have died unexpectedly, or you may not have permission to debug
the process.


Any idea on this error and how to fix it ?

Thanks for any suggestion.

I am trying to figure out how that error is related to plesk ...However my recommendation would be post that in the suse forums, they should have better answers ...

You could also provide us with more details by looking at the logs, ie what process is the panic action triggered to kill.. and etc

Hi

Thanks for answering.

In which log can I find some answers ?

Why do recommand a post in suse forums as my os is debian ?

Best regards

Am so sorry, I am not sure why I typed Suse when that error is very common on Ubuntu & Debian! I must have been thinking about something else ..
However, somewhere someone resolved it with:

deleting the samba config generated by the gui stored at

/var/lib/samba/usershares

and creating own vanilla config at

/etc/samba/smb.conf

Here's a link to seting up vanilla configs

The errors went away with the above ...
