We're running Texis 3.01.971289085 of Oct 11, 2000 on our Tru64 Alphaserver. When building indexes on a table the monitor log is showing the above error. Can you shed any light on what might be happening? Is this something we should worry about? The indexes seem to be functioning correctly having been built.

No. No other messages in the log to suggest why it has happened. However, since I posted my message, I've been doing a bit of digging. I think what's happening is that the maximum number of processes is being reached and that's what is causing the problem. I have our hosting service system admin looking into it as I'm seeing other messages (max_proc_per user) being displayed on the console.
