Hard to say. There's no evidence in the cited log. I think you may want to |
| 15 |
increase verbosity of the logs... Hm, and next time don't just kill the |
| 16 |
running instance but check what it's actually doing using strace and |
| 17 |
ltrace (or even a debugger, but this won't help much if debug symbols are |
| 18 |
stripped...). You've compiled in a lot of auth mechs, so it may well be |
| 19 |
due to a related library (hence I suggested ltrace, too). |
