Thanks @ddrillic, I do have memory available but still it is crashing after two-three days by giving error as std::bad_alloc and it is happening in my universal forwarder which is sending syslog data .

Hello i Have the same problem. my Heavy forwarder is restarting unexpectedly at least 2 times a day.

crash.log file specifies the thread :

"Received fatal signal 6 (Aborted) on PID 13698.
Cause:
Signal sent by PID 13698 running under UID 0.

Hello

Did you manage to resolve, I am facing a similar problem with my intermediate forwarders crushing.

I have enough memory 16GB

Are you still using a 6.5 forwarder in 2024? I suppose not. Try starting a new thread with a more detailed description of your problem.

alec_stan — Sat, 05 Oct 2024 06:52:21 GMT

No, I am using 9.1 and 9.3. However, I am experiencing the same problem on Red Hat 8. I will start a new thread as per your advice.
