Issue #21990 has been reported by zenspider (Ryan Davis). ---------------------------------------- Bug #21990: [ruby-talk:444791] Regression: Ruby 4.0 constantly crashing https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/21990 * Author: zenspider (Ryan Davis) * Status: Open * Backport: 3.2: UNKNOWN, 3.3: UNKNOWN, 3.4: UNKNOWN, 4.0: UNKNOWN ---------------------------------------- (Filed for a user on ruby-talk who can't get registered here for some reason) After upgrade to ruby 4.0, all our Rails applications are continuously crashing on different nodes at different locations. All the applications were running flawlessly for about a year with 4.0.0.p1 and 4.0.0.p2. Reverting to 4.0.0.p2 solves the issue. The behaviour is the same with 4.0.0 and 4.0.1, where 4.0.1 has the additional issue that the value of ulimit "unlimited" has been reduced below "EFBIG", so no coredumps can be written ("too big"). Bug reporting is not possible: After registering an account on https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/, one is requested to follow the instructions in an e-mail, but such e-mail is never sent; not even after repeatedly requesting it.
