Not sure if this is a bug or an "info" but I occasionally see the following;. It appears they only occur in the "testing" apps

I was unable to find the above tasks to see their status. Got too many to go through. I would think that "exit code 0" means no error, at least on the pc.

I think that is info only and caused by the parameters supplied for the testing tasks. There is an actual shared memory segment access error too but that has to do with a malfunctioning card, application or client upset.

[Edit] You can cause the error easily if you have the leave tasks in memory toggled in Preferences. Whole bunch of stuff added in 2007 checkin_notes
