Hi,
I ran into a problem testing Bacula 5.0.1 and thought I'd share as it
took a while to figure out.
bconsole was hanging trying to connect to the director. strace showed
the client sending the hello and blocking waiting on read.
a gdb backtrace of the director gave me a hint:
bbtest-dir: bnet.c:669-0 who=client host=127.0.0.1 port=36131
in this blocked state, I got a gdb backtrace from the director (mysql in
this case):
> Thread 3 (Thread 0xf6dcbb90 (LWP 19355)):
> #0 0xf77dce67 in select () from /lib/libc.so.6
> #1 0xf7ebfdbe in bnet_thread_server (addrs=0x80de900, max_clients=0,
> client_wq=0x80d75c0, handle_client_request=0x80a65a2
> <handle_UA_client_request>)
> at bnet_server.c:161

> #3 0xf7b10fda in start_thread () from /lib/libpthread.so.0
> #4 0xf77e392e in clone () from /lib/libc.so.6
as you can see, max_clients is set to 0. I did not set this and the
docs say the default should be 20 (and the code looks to confirm that).
For some reason, it's ending up as 0 here. Setting it explicitly to
non-zero in the config fixed my problem.
I'm using the Debian 5.0.1 packages (built for Ubuntu Hardy)
Incidentally, the docs say MaxConsoleConnections, but it doesn't
recognize this - it must be MaximumConsoleConnections
http://www.bacula.org/5.0.x-manuals/en/main/main/Configuring_Director.html#SECTION001720000000000000000
I'll look into filing any appropriate bugs (if they've not already been
filed!)
John.
