That's not enough information for me to help you.  I have no idea what
"panel: malloc" means, whether it's significant, or what code issued it.  

It's *much* better to let the script do the talking; show the actual error
message instead of paraphrasing.  

If "select * from tablename" fails, please show the script and its output.
 If that happens only with certain tables, does it happen only with
certain columns or rows?  A TDSDUMP script often help in isolating the
problem.
