Hello,

Recently our RT database backup script started to show this message.

mysqldump: Error 5: Out of memory (Needed 19928072 bytes) when dumping table
Attachments at row: 390157

Any recommendations?

Thanks in advance,

Alex

What platform/OS are you on?

If you search google you’ll probably come across some of the posts I
made while trying to solve that problem under FreeBSD. If you’re on that
OS, it’s most likely that you’re running up against the 512MB
per-process limit.
