SUMMARY: Stacksize Issues - Solaris 8

Got a couple of responses, Ray Brownrigg had seen the problem with this
application 
before and had fix:

"I had a similar problem.  My workaround was to set a finite stacksize

- for me 8192 was sufficient.  I think there is an overflow bug 
somewhere (I remember seeing that something
thought that the stacksize was negative).

Thanks again,
Dave

================ Original Post ===============

Hello everyone:

Installed an appplication on Solaris 8 box (SunBlade 1000) 
In testing, the application runs just fine as root.
When trying to run as any non-privileged user, I get the following
message:

"Stack size of 2097152 Kb exceeds current limit of 2097151 Kb.
(Stack sizes are rounded up to a multiple of the system page size.)
See limit (1) to increase the stack size limit."

Results of 'limit' and 'limit-h' for non-privileged users follows:

Sun Microsystems Inc.   SunOS 5.8       Generic February 2000
[denali] kc :> limit
cputime         unlimited
filesize        unlimited
datasize        unlimited
stacksize       unlimited
coredumpsize    unlimited
vmemoryuse      unlimited
descriptors     1024 

[denali] kc :> limit -h
cputime         unlimited
filesize        unlimited
datasize        unlimited
stacksize       unlimited
coredumpsize    unlimited
vmemoryuse      unlimited
descriptors     1024 
[denali] kc :>


I experimented with different stacksize settings, mostly ended up
making the box non-responsive.  
Any advice on how to fix or troubleshoot is most welcome.   I will
summarize.

Thanks,
Dave
