GRMBL......
Sorry, i can't give you a traceback of amflush, today it worked flawlessly.
Nothing changed, only one amanda-dir less then last week and all is fine.
I'll have to wait until it reapears until i can give more details.
seemed to be caused by bad karma and 3 failed amanda-runs in the holdingdisk.
sorry.

Hi,
Thanks, but that can't be the problem, because this patch had been applied
*before* the last failing amflush.
And it does not show the described symptoms, amflush is not hanging and
not eating up memory and cpu-cycles, it simply terminates fast without sending
an e-mail or doing anything it is expected to do.
Noe core-files laying around, it just marks the first matching tape as used in the database and then terminates.
Any thoughts?


Could you run amflush under a debugger? I would like to know where it crash?

If you can give me a brief instruction how i'll try it, i've never done
this before, so i don't know how.


$ gdb amflush
(gdb) run <config>

type 'where' on the gdb prompt when it crash.

Send me also the amflush log file.

Do you have the same problem with 2.4.4b1?

this is the main production-server of a customer of us, and i'm a bit scared
about installing "beta"-software on it, so i haven't try'd this yet.
If you consider it stable enough for production-use i'll try it.


I would have released the 2.4.4 stable this week-end if you haven't send
this bug report. It is better than 2.4.3.
