[Dxspider-support] Spider continues to freeze and/or restart on its own

[Michael G. Carper]

So much for that idea.

I set all the spawn commands to run in-the-background and the node just
froze again and tossed all the users off.

Puzzled.  Would LOVE to hear about a solution.

Is the 175 build the most recent DX Spider release?

I thought centos 5 had git? If it really hasn't, I might consider installing
it from source.

CVS is now fixed.

I haven't used CVS to branch for quite a while and my remarks about swapping
from one branch to another "easily" may not apply.

I would seriously consider installing git if you want to use the mojo
branch.

Also, I haven't used perlbrew on DXSpider and you may find that we get
problems getting the correct perl (ie perlbrew correctly overriding the
system perl).

The current stable perl is 5.22.1 and I recommend that you use that. 
Don't use any perl with an odd release number like 5.23, as they are
development versions and not considered stable.
