cactid in free(): error: junk pointer, too low to make sense

Hi all,
I am testing 0.8.6-pre
on a FreeBSD 5.1
MySQL 4.1.3
with CactiD 0.8.6-pre

I have around 1500 polls to do.
When i run the cactid i got the following error:
=> cactid in free(): error: junk pointer, too low to make sense <=

Any ideas what is wrong ?
it look like it stops every time on the same spot. and does not finisch the rest of the poling.

You are using an old version of Cacti and Cactid. Please obtain the latest version from the web site. As with all beta products, changes happen quite frequently.

I made MAJOR DOMO changes over the weekend. Ian did not get the CVS Updated until late Sunday. Please try.

Thanks,

Also, the dates are deceiving. raX has a batch job that pushes the data to the FTP site. Unfortunately he has to manually preload the directory before it's pushed out. And, when he's at the beach for a weekend, those changes don't get pushed to the brave Beta testers out there.

You will know when you have the right version when you see the seconds in the time/date display.
