Description

Having compiled TS, and started the server, I get the following errors both in the syslog and in traffic.out (some of the messages in traffic.out are very similar to those in the syslog) :

in the syslog :

The same messages are then repeated every two seconds or so.

I used the default apt-get install's for all the dependencies, and apart from Sqlite, which uses the latest source, these files were used in the build.

The kernel is quite an old one now, but unfortunately I cannot upgrade because my ISP doesn't offer a more recent kernel.

Although I can telnet into the server, it won't process any requests.
