Error message: “ks_falloc() memory allocation failed”

[CR# 468669] If you connect to Adaptive Server using Extended Password Encryption you may see error message: “ks_falloc() memory allocation failed” in the error log. This message may also appear if “net password encryption” is enabled for server-to-server communication.

Workaround 1: To prevent the memory leak from exhausting all resources, avoid using Extended Password Encryption in the client and set sp_serveroption “net password encryption” to “false” for any Adaptive Server Enterprise class remote server. You can find remote servers using the stored procedure “sp_helpserver”.

Workaround 2: To temporarily avoid the problem increase the value of the configuration parameter “additional network memory” or reboot the server to release memory resources.
