[omniORB] Cannot start threads

[Pánczél Levente]

Hi everyone!

I use OmniORB4 in a server application which frequently creates/deletes threads. I got aware of omniORB not working correctly. As I tried to figure out what happened I found that omniORB was not able to create worker threads. More confusing was, as I found that after a point not only the omniORB subsystem but none of the threads of my server was able to start a thread. All requests to pthread_create return errno 11 (something like EWOULDBLOCK) saying "resource temporarily unavailable" wich state is quite static. Could anyone give me a hint about the reasons for this behavior and wheter my code or omniORB or both together are causing these syndromes?
I will start a session with a omniORB trace 40 but it takes hours to catch this bug.

Thanks in advance.

Levente, Panczel
