POA Segfault error 4 in libtoolkit.so.1

Hi,
We've got a customer that is getting this error regularly in /var/log/messages and their Post Office crashes everytime. 2 weeks ago we migrated the Post Office from OES2sp3 / gw8.0.3 to oes11sp2 (64bit) / gw2012, everything ran smoothly for at least 3-4 days, then our current problems started. It is the error message that gets written to messages after the POA crashes. We have gw2012sp1 on oes11sp1 (64bit) (4GB RAM, 2 CPUs around 250 users) and plenty of space. Top shows that the system is not lacking in resources, etc... We have two Post Offices running on the server one is for users and the other is a library. The POA crashes with 50, 150 and 200 users connected. The users connect via C/S and are using gwclient8. After doing some tests it appears as if the POA crashes when a user tries to send an e-mail an all users.... The POA crashed yesterday and it appears as if the GWIA also "died" after the POA "died". When the POA "dies" (crashes), sometimes we can restart it with the rcgrpwise start po.dom command and sometimes that does not work. When it does not work we have to unload the running instance of gwpoa (the library post office, there are 2 instances of gwpoa running) then start the User PO and then restart the Lib-PO....then it is running again. They were several old mails in the wpcsout/problem directory which Ive "cleaned out", but the system has crashed since then.
Normally a Segmentation Fault means not enough resources are available for the POA (seems unlikely, maybe update to 8GB Ram. threads look ok.), or there is a bug, maybe a corrupt email or user database? But our gwchecks show nothing dramatic.
There have been Netwokr problems, a switch died last week but unfortunately I have no more info on this. We've added a secondary ip address to the server and have configured the poa to use it.
Any ideas?
Well, any help would be greatly appreciated and thank you in advance for your assistance.
Mike

Hi,
Thanks for your help. I'll be presenting the customer with this info and see if we can't get them updated to sp2.
Although, it seems as if I've solved the problem without sp2. Here's what I did.
The POA had 25 C/S threads and 10 Message Handler Threads for 150 users and I changed these settings to 12 C/S Threads and 6 Message Threads. My understanding is that for every 25 users (connections?) that you need one C/S thread and that Messages Handler threads should be no more than half the C/S threads. They have consistently 150 users and my entries seem ok. I also checked and/or made the neccessary optimizations to /etc/opt/novell/nss/nssstart.cfg, to the /etc/opt/novell/ncpcserv.conf and in Remote Manager. The customer also had Postfix running with the gwia. Of course I deactivated that. Finally the VM had 4GB RAM and 4 CPUs... this I of course also changed to 8GB RAM and 2 CPUs.... There were also 3 curropt messages in their GWIA and a couple of hundred in the POA directories. They were also "removed".
Since changing all the above mentioned settings plus a couple of other settings and a restart, it seems to be working fine. According to the customer that since the migration / upgrade when a user sent a mail on all gw-users the poa would crash. We've tested this and now it seems fine.
Nevertheless, I will be trying to convince the customer to update to sp2 ASAP.
Once again, thank you for your assitance and it is still possible that this "case" (thread) will be re-opened. Only time will tell.

Segfault - error 6 in libc-2.13.so after GNOME3 upgrade::[SOLVED]

Greetings archers,
Today I`ve -Syu`ed my system which is running Gnome 3 on it (64 bit installation of Arch). Everything was working just awesome but now almost everything is crashing with a very strange behavior.
For example, flash plugin is crashing when watching youtube videos in fullscreen, nautilus is crashing when trying to move/drag the icons, chromium is crashing when trying to type something in the address bar.
The following error message is being written immediatelly after the crash occures.
May 5 15:53:54 localhost kernel: [ 2675.133040] chromium[6697]: segfault at 7fffece75fe8 ip 00007f6494808845 sp 00007fffece75ff0 error 6 in libc-2.13.so[7f64947a5000+154000]

I've searched on the Internet and I was unable to find any tip or something which I need to implement in order to fix this issue.
Also, I do not know what this 'libc-2.13.so' library is exactly used for? Can some one point me to some direction?
EDIT: I've found that 'libc-2.13.so' is apart of 'glibc' and 'lib32-glibc' (the GNU C Library), so I need to check which version is currently installed on my laptop once I get home and will try downgrading it and check if that helps.
Additionally, I've searched the Internet deeper and did not find anything similar to this except this ONE.
At this moment I'm not knowledgeable to narrow this issue down. Is some one else experiencing this behavior?
Thanks,
Daniel

When I select the Macbuntu Cursor scheme (the one I was using under gnome2, xfce etc ...) some programs are segfaulting as described in my previous post.
Once I switched the cursors back to the Gnome 3 original skin, everything is again working perfectly. This thread can be closed or something.
Thanks.

Segfault - error 6 in libcef.so

Last few days, system has frozen 3 times. /var/log/sys.log reports <date/time> <hostname> kernel: [<Unix time>] Watchdog[<short number, differs>]: segfault at 0 ip 00007f<rest of address, differs but ends like>af6 sp 00007f<rest of address, close to but not the same as first, ending>650 error 6 in libcef.so[7f<more address, different each time but ending with>000+3cc7000]I'm not totally sure this is a Spotify problem, but it was the only application launched by me after login to a KDE Plasma 5 system when it last crashed. The mouse continues to be moveable, but the desktop is unresponsive to clicks or keyboard shortcuts. Alt-SysRq + R, E throws the user out to the login screen, where login can work. I havent seen it crash after this but the system dbus is no longer running etc, due to I suppose a partial emergency reboot. Restarting corrects problems with dbus, consolekit etc, but leaves possibility of crash again soon. I'm also using spotify connect to skip tracks from my phone etc (since no api for dbus anymore **cry cry**) - unsure if this is related, but a very nice new feature (and works perfectly on my Windows 8.1 laptop) Please let me know what I can test/check/do.

I even tried xmodmap to no avail:
keycode 165 = XF86AudioPrev
keycode 164 = XF86AudioPlay
keycode 163 = XF86AudioNext
What gives? The other xbindkeys work well. What is causing the ncmpcpp segfault or how do I go about finding out more info?
This is on a macbook 2013 6,2 on

Wow I feel dumb. Seems like ncmpcpp changed quite a bit since I last used it (around last Sept!?). Looks like we use mpc instead, example "mpc next" "mpc prev" "mpc toggle". Marking as solved.

Firefox won't run - segfault error

Hey guys.
Must have done something woird the other day... when I try to run FF I get:
(firefox-bin:2493): Gdk-WARNING **: gdk_property_get(): length value has wrapped in calculation (did you pass G_MAXLONG?)
/opt/mozilla/lib/firefox-1.0.4/run-mozilla.sh: line 159: 2493 Segmentation fault "$prog" ${1+"$@"}
Ideas?

Not sure about the .mozilla thinc, I don't have a config file of that name, just the directory.
The output of strace is pretty long, I'll post the second half or so, the rest if necessary.
Cheers

KDEmod 4.3 crashes with segfault

So, wanting to use something different, I installed KDEmod 4.3, but it crashes and slows down my system to an almost inoperable speed. It may be a Pentium M laptop with only 512 MB of RAM, but I am sure this is more then adequate; even Ubuntu runs smoothly with compiz running, let alone Arch.
When I load KDM as a daemon, it is just a black screen with and cursor that looks like a watch.
Seeing that it does not go beyond that, I disabled the KDM daemon and used 'startx' to start kdemod (I already added 'exec startkde' to my xinitrc.
The splash screen loaded, but it never got beyond the first icon, and after quite a while it crashed with a segfault error 11.
The packages were corrupted at first with powerpill, but I reinstalled it with pacman and installation went without a hitch. Is there a step I forgot in configuring X or what?

Firepower wrote:Is there a step I forgot in configuring X or what?
Yes, most likely.
Ps. more info gets better answers. Try to follow the wiki for starters, both arch and kdemod.
After that we can troubleshoot.

Calling getEJBMetaData throws java.lang.ClassCastException

I am trying to introspect bean Home,creation methods and public methods thru Java Client using RMI/IIOP.
It looks like I get the remote interface and home interface but next time I try to call again, I get following errror:
getEJBMetaData() threw this: type(java.lang.ClassCastException), msg(com.sun.corba.ee.internal.POA.ServantCachePOAClientSC)
Has anybody encountered this error?
First time I called getEJBMetaData() on EJBHome , I get the Metadata but with warnings:SEVERE: UTIL6034:Could not initialize ORB monitoring
Second time I get POA.. error described above

after search the forum, I found a post last year
https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=833711
I only have the file " install " in /var/lib/pacman/local/filesystem-2011.08-1/
ls -l /var/lib/pacman/local/filesystem-2011.08-1/
total 4.0K
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1.6K Aug 10 07:41 install
I checked another machine which also installed Arch Linux,
it's package number is filesystem-2011.04-1
ls -l /var/lib/pacman/local/filesystem-2011.04-1/
total 12
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 287 Jul 23 12:49 desc
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1804 Jul 23 12:23 files
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1623 Apr 8 18:08 install
Should I just copy the " desc " and " files " to my computer, then run `pacman -Syu` again
or
Upgrade that machine's filesystem to 2011.08-1, then copy the files to my computer to fix it ?
( I am afraid of upgrade error again)
Thank you

I just upgraded filesystem to 2011.08-1 on my VM
then copyed the " desc, files " under /var/lib/pacman/local/filesystem-2011.08-1/
to my computer, and reinstall filesystem and kernel
$ sudo pacman -S filesystem --dbonly
$ sudo pacman -S filesystem

upgraded filesystem (2011.08-1 -> 2011.08-1)
$ sudo pacman -S linux
after edited /etc/fstab, reboot the computer
During booting I got some filesystem error warning
system automaticlly checked and fixed those errors on root partition and reboot again
Then I can boot into X now
in /var/log/error.log I found something similar to previous booting error

after searching on the web, I found that maybe an old harmless problem related to kernel ?
https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=293179
also found an error in /var/log/daemon.log
Failed to activate service 'org.freedesktop.Avahi': timed out
there is already a post about it, but not having a conclusion yet
https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=124485
Every things seen to work fine now
After few more test and reboot, I would mark this post [solved]
Thanks to everyone for replying m(_ _)m
P.S.
There is still a problem when using virtualbox 4.1.2-1 after reboot, but I think that may not related to this post
If I try to upgrade kernel of the VM to 3.0.2-1 ( currently 3.0.1-1 ), will cause VirtualBox and my computer crash
generating some assert error, produce segfault when I tried to type any command in shell
unable to launch any program in X, but if I switch to tty*, I only got
INIT:Id "x" respawning too fast: disabled for 5 minutes
So I have to push the reset button to force reboot
after restore VM to previous snapshot, not having any problem so far

New glibc hits testing

it's a major update - glibc2.7 is now in testing for both architectures. timezone datas has been splitted out into a new tzdata pkg.
give it a try. look out for typical segfault errors when starting programs or found in dmesg. there have also been changes to some locales. file bugs if you find something broken.

I have tested with ftp.archlinux.org without success. I can only do pacman -A tzdata but I don't want .

[Solved] Update broke some things

Okay, I just ran pacman -Syu and among the kernel and ndiswrapper updates some important stuff got broken.
1. When I try to boot up it gets to the file systems spits out a bunch of stuff and gives me this error
/etc/rc.sysinit line 271 5915 segmentation fault /bin/mount -o remount, rw
What do i have to do to that line to let it boot normally?
2. This isnt a fatal error, just an annoyance. but in that same file on line 350 it says: /usr/bin/kbd_mod no such file or directory.
Can I delete this line?
3. and finally once again, these updates broke the wireless. When I run netcfg2 mynetwork I get a wireless association failed error.
Any help on this?

I did an pacman -Syu update a few days ago when I first posted this thread, installed about 18 packages. Then when I tried to boot up again, I started getting the segfault error.

Segfault in glib amidst rt2x00usb errors causes freeze.

I left my computer on overnight. When I woke up the next day and checked it, I saw it had frozen overnight. I could get no response from it whatsoever. These are the last entries in my system log before the freeze:

I have no idea what happened, but apparently, it had something to do with my wireless USB adapter (rt2x00usb) and glib, and it was bad. If there was a kernel panic, would that information be recoverable? Where would it be? How about a core dump of glib? Would that have been kept anywhere?

surfatwork wrote:I have had a similar issue twice recently, now that you mention it. Didnt have time to poke around and find out what went wrong.
upower is enabled on mine as well.
will do some more tests and report.
and I dont think it is your video drivers - I have onboard intel, using the xf86-intel-video driver
Thanks, I've changed the title to something a bit more informative, maybe we can get some extra help on this. My motherboard has an inbuilt Intel card, but it's disabled in the bios and lsmod doesn't show any modules for Intel graphics being used.

New POA gets B300 error at MTA

Hi All,
Had to create a new PO to divide a mail store. Using GW 7.0.4 FTF (newest as of the web site last week) on Windows 2003 Standard. The original MTA and POA are on another Windows 2003 Standard using 7.0.4 (as of May 2010 give or take).
MTA connects to new POA and can do mailbox moves, but after about 1-2 hours, it will lose connection with a B300 error and stays disconnected!
DSREPAIR on master replica (still Netware 6.5 - 8.7.3.9 EDir) says everything is clean in the replica ring.
GWCHECK on Source Domain and PO and Target PO say everything is good.
If I go to the target POA and restart the MTP, it's good for another 1-2 hours. Don't know why it's doing this. The Target POA stays online and clients can still access their mailboxes in the meantime.
Any ideas?
Cheers.

820e error in user database after POA lock up on Friday..

Have been able to use gwcheck and clean up other users who experienced this error, however one particular user is still not able to send or receive mail. I have her forwarding new mail to an alternate email address, her gw mail is being queued up. I have unloaded and restarted the POA a couple of times, and ran full gwcheck over the weekend. We are running GW 7.02, her account appears to be locked, and I am not sure how to unlock it. Would taking the email server down completely free it up? thanks! Mary

Hi Mary,
Which OS/patchlevel are you running GroupWise on? And how long have these issues been going on (as you mention other users).
Mybe some other (non Groupwise process) is grabbing hold of the file, some more details on the server and what's running on it would be good.
Cheers,
Willem
