[Dxspider-support] Help & Questions

[Bill Shell]

Ed,

Make sure during your various changes you didn't wind up with an 
incorrect link in the /etc/rc#.d file areas.  Or, better yet, remove the 
current links you have for the dxspider service in each of the rc2.d, 
rc3.d, etc., and rerun:
sudo update-rc.d dxspider defaults

Then reboot.  You should see /spider/perl/cluster.pl running as a 
process with the owner of sysop.

I wasn't paying attention to this thread when you were discussion 
memory.  Are you running the command:
free -h

When you do, look at the used memory, and subtract the cached memory.  
What is the difference?

-Bill
