Spine not processing RRDs

[lizwire]

hi there,

Ive recently installed cacti 0.8.7g with spine 0.8.7g and using spine poller.
no rrds are being process.

the crontab is:
*/5 * * * * /usr/local/websites/php/bin/php /usr/local/cacti/poller.php > /dev/null 2>&1
Ive changed the polling interval to 1 minute with no positive results.

when i do ./spine -V 5 this is what i get:
SPINE: Poller[0] FATAL: Spine Encountered a Segmentation Fault (Spine parent)

my log looks like this:

Please apply the spine 0.8.7g patches from the main site. Make sure that if you are running a version of Cacti prior to 0.8.7g that you have the Pre_G variable set. Also, make sure your 'max_connections' setting in my.cnf is high enough. The calculation method is:

max_connections >= processes * (script_servers + threads)

hey there thanks for the reply. I did install the patches and the max connections is set high enough, there are no change though.

ive tried reinstalling the spine to no avail. This is the debug output:
