Samba log filling up

Hi!
My customers' server is filling it's Samba log for some reason. Obviously it fills the disk up and the we are in trouble...
Followin appears every 30 sek:
readsocketdata: recv failure for 4. Error = Connection reset by peer
[2008/04/14 09:36:59, 0] /SourceCache/samba/samba-100.9/samba/source/lib/utilsock.c:read_socketdata(400)

I believe its fixed.
open Keychain Access then select Keychain Access -> Keychain First Aid
Run a repair
Select the crlcache.db keychain and right click -> delete files and associations
Run a repair
I had to do the set twice until crlcache.db was no longer in my keychain. After it was removed, the logs no longer posted when I used safari.

Online redo logs fill-up due to long running SCM processes

DB2 v9.7
AIX v6.1 P570
Running Standard SAP Code
Going live with SCM system running SNP/DP GATP how can we avoid having our online redo logs fill-up due to long running processes (i.e., CTM. Process Chains, BOP, DP Runs) Need to know SAP Best Practice regarding this -
Per our developers, BOP jobs performs commit when everything is processed and update table in one go at end, Hence not possible to perform commit regularly. Actually they will have to run BOP for 3200 material with 98000 sales order items.
But after just running BOP for 40 material with 22000 sales orders line items we are getting DBIF_RSQL_SQL_ERROR + CX_SY_OPEN_SQL_DB dumps
Any assistance on this would be helpful...
Thanks -

Fred
Check OSS notes for this error. The BOP compponent has a steady stream of corrections developed by SAP especially in older releases.
Also make sure your Livecache Build is consistent with SCM Release/ Patch level.

Starting sunstudio without DISPLAY: ide.log fills up the disk

We had a user starting sunstudio from a terminal that didn't have DISPLAY set. I'd expect sunstudio to fail, like in the case when DISPLAY has a non-valid value, but no: The process goes into an infinite loop and the ide.log fills with exeception messages.
I guess this is a bug - but is it a known bug?
A search on sunsolve didn't give any match - except for an old bug where the command did exit silently (see http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=4917734).
Regards,
Bernd

I can't reproduce this problem with Sun Studio 12:
$ unset DISPLAY
$ sunstudio
/opt/12/SUNWspro/bin/sunstudio: ERROR: environment variable DISPLAY is not set
So even if there was such a bug, it has been fixed.

System.log fills up with uninstall_folder_path no 0

My system.log fills up with the following text:
Apr 10 22:09:48 Macken DelMonitor[60]: hokan
Apr 10 22:09:48 Macken DelMonitor[60]: uninstall_path no 0
Apr 10 22:09:48 Macken DelMonitor[60]: uninstall_folder_path no 0
Apr 10 22:09:50 Macken DelMonitor[60]: install_path yes
These four lines adds every other second, and just fills upp the system.log.
I habe tried to google but can not find any clues to what this is and how to make it stop!
Anyone have any suggestions?
I have a Mac Book Pro with verson 10.7.3
Regards,
Hokan

It's some third-party software that you installed, but I can't be more specific. If you can't figure it out any other way, you'll just have to start uninstalling things until the log messages stop.

Best Practices: opmn/logs filling up disk

Has anyone experienced( I assume we all have this issue) with the logs in the $HTTP_SERVER_HOME/opmn/logs getting HUGE. I have APEX 3.0 installed on a UNIX box. Also I do not have a full install of Oracle AS, only the DB http server. What happens is that the logs fill up and the disk hits 100% so the HTTP server can't be started. We bring the DB and HTTP server down every evening and back up every morning(this is done with a scheduling tool that calls a couple of scripts) but it looks like it is only taking about half a day to fill up the logs(depends on the amount of activity on the different apps in APEX). Maybe this isn't the right place for this, if not I'll move it over to the other forums.
Any thoughts/suggestions.
Thanks,
David

Hi David,
That's an error message indicating that you're trying to run it on the same port as something else, take a look at the following thread -
ons.log growing enormously in 10g on RHEL3
which shows you how to resolve it.

System.log filling up with enqueueData rtn message

I'm seeing the following log entry in system.log 7-9 times a second:
Oct 22 11:00:00 pbair-paulywalnutz-com kernel[0]: ttyioss9000003: enqueueData rtn (e00002d8)
I've tried googling and checked discussions here but can't find anything that seems to be related.
I don't think it's affecting my PB all that much but it is definitely not right and I would like to fix it.
Please let me know any information I might post that would help diagnose, etc...
Thanks,
Paul

I contacted technical support for Software-Systeme (what the company is not called Bresink as I posted earlier).
They replied promptly with what seems to be the answer…

The error message indicates that you have configured Hardware Monitor
to send its current readings to an external LCD display box. However,
this box appears to have a technical problem or you have no such device
connected. To switch this off, open "Preferences > LCD Module", select
the USB device and set "Configure for display type" to "No display".
This works for me and stops the logs filling with the messages. I'm not sure when I set the LCD display settings, but I imagine it was when I was learning what the settings do.
Just select the items in the top 'lcd module settings' table and set them to no display.

please help

You subject states your master log keeps filling up, but the body of your post has nothing (directly) to do with the master log filling up soooo, could you provide a bit more detail of what's happening with your master database and any commands you've issued? [I'm wondering if you've left out some details of your actions which could help explain the message in your errorlog ... ???]
Do you have any threshold action stored procs firing in the master database and if so could you post (as a *txt attachment) the said proc(s)?

Logs filled up circular logging not working

hey. i have exchange 2010 with dag and logs filled up and shut down database. i remove some logs according to old date then i turn on circular logging. But still not logs shrinking but only growing. i move more logs now. how come
circular loggins not work? i dismount and remount already. thank you in advace.
EC David

EC,
Do you have time to just run a full backup?
The reason why the circular logging is not working is because you need to break the DAG. Dismount the passive copy, remove the copy then dismount the active. Once you remount the circular logging should work. Once that is done you Or you
can just run a full backup if you have the time to let the logs truncate from that. Either way you will have to run a backup. Actually, why don't you just run a full backup?
Oh, if you go that route, don't forget to reseed the database. I hope you can just do a full backup.

Console logs filling up - EP6

Hi,
We are currently on EP6 - sp2, and during the past month we have noticed the console logs filling up very quick.
Last week the file was on 3 GB.
Seems like the debugger has been switched on.
We did not switch it on.
See below for a snapshot taken from the console log:-

Hi Amol,
Thanks for replying.
I could not find the options u mentioned.
I am on EP6 - sp2 and not NW04.
When i open the Visual Admin tool and go to
"Server - Services", i only see Log and Logviewer.
I also tried from within the Portal ie.
"Monitoring - Logging Console - Configuration Mode"
Thanks,

Samba log files

I just discovered that I have about a million (7567 to be precise) samba log files with ridiculous names like:
log.nmbd.old.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.3.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1
some shorter, some longer. Most of them are empty.
1. My gut feeling tells me that there is something wrong here, with my Samba configuration. Is it?
2. Is there any reason not to delete them (except the most recent ones)?

I noticed that on some of my servers recently too. I just deleted them all. I haven't seen any side effects.
I did notice that there is a setting smb.conf called 'max log size'. I think that might stop it from creating hundreds of log files if you up it to a larger amount.
The other way to fix it is to make the log file non specific by changing
log file = /var/log/samba.log.%m
to
log file = /var/log/samba.log

System.log fills up with bad packets errors (Multicast packet - CRC error)

Hello,
I've been trying to Google my problem but found no answers; hopefully someone can help me?
Whenever I'm online, my System.logs fills up (every second, and sometimes, multiple times each second) with the following message :
19/12/07 12:51:01 PM kernel AppleYukon2 - bad packet received. length: 60, packet status bits: Multicast packet, CRC error
19/12/07 12:51:01 PM kernel AppleYukon2 - bad packet received. length: 60, packet status bits: Multicast packet, CRC error
My DSL modem is connect directly into my iMac. It's a Speedstream 5360). I never have any problems connecting to the Internet and the speed I get is fine. When I configured my Network settings, I only added my PPPoE Service name username and âssword - everything else was automatically added (Ethernet configuration).
Is there anything I should change in the Advanced Settings?
The System.log causes me problem because it often causes the application Console to crash when I try to view it.

I should add that this problem didn't exist when I was using Tiger.
Also, when I called Apple Tech Support, I was simply told "just don't play with the Console".

Accounting Log filling up with useless data

I am getting my ACS Accounting logs filled with useless data from about 12 devices. I think I have found the cause - I just don't know how to fix it.
The accounting data has a username we have not used for months, and I stumbled upon this by looking at various show commands on the devices that are causing the problem.
When I do a "sh aaa sessions", I see this:
CE-WIN-IDF16-3750-Stack1#sh aaa session
Total sessions since last reload: 189
Session Id: 1
   Unique Id: 127
   User Name: *not available*
   IP Address: 0.0.0.0
   Idle Time: 0
   CT Call Handle: 0
Session Id: 354
   Unique Id: 263
   User Name: cenetmgmt
   IP Address: 10.62.7.15
   Idle Time: 0

   Unique Id: 410
   User Name: leehoyle
   IP Address: 10.62.7.15
   Idle Time: 0
   CT Call Handle: 0
I would LOVE to get rid of that Session ID: 354 if I could. I can't seem to find a suitable "clear" command. Any help out there?
Thansk in advance!

I am not trying to access anything I keep getting the message that my cloud is full than go to it to find that is is full of things from my computer and pictures from the Sims game spent 3 hours yesterday as it kept telling me that Verizon was not available. Why is my cloud not backing up my phone but randomly backing up my computer which I do not need. This is using the desktop Icon. I have not even opened it on my desktop until I tried to delete the stuff on it it did this on its own.

[Solved] Samba log spam: Unable to connect to CUPS server

I'm running into an annoying issue with samba. I don't have any printers installed, and probably won't. However smbd complains to no end in /var/log/errors.log about not being able to connect to a cups server:

glad you posted it first i had the same problem.
However, samba was complaining that
printing = none
was invalid. I removed that line and it works great.
thanks

SQL error log filling rapidly

We are running Sql server 2005. This server has been running for over a year without any problems. There are no custom databases or scripts (Operations manager, WSUS, ACS databases)
Recently the ERRORLOG has started filling rapidly with the error:
spid26s An exception occurred while enqueueing a message in the target queue. Error: 15517, State: 1. Cannot execute as the database principal because the principal "dbo" does not exist, this type of principal cannot be impersonated,
or you do not have permission.
This error is being posted several times a second.
All forums and web searches indicate that this occurs when a database is moved from one server to another and the SID of a user account changes, however we have not moved/imported/exported any databases or changed/added/deleted any users. Everything in that
respect is still set the way it always has been.
The only clue I am getting is when I run an sp_who query and look for spid26 (or whatever is being reported at the time)
This shows:
spid 26 status: background loginname: sa dbname: master cmd: BRKR Task
If I am reading this correctly, then I cannot understand why the sa account is failing to login to the master database for the Broker when everything else is working.
Any suggestions?
My knowledge of SQL is limited, so if there is any other info required, let me know.
Thanks

Thanks Dan
I ran both the queries you suggested and all SIDs matched.
However, it turned out that on one of the databases (Operations Manager - the first one that was created 3 years ago), there was no dbo! (the queries returned a value of 'null')
Setting a dbo with the 'alter authorization' query stopped the errors immediately.
I'm not sure where the dbo had gone as this is not a server we log on to very often and certainly not to work on SQL.The problem only came to light when disk space started depleting rapidly a couple of days ago.
I can only put it down to either a Windows update (the only change made recently) or just one of those things - something corrupted after a reboot!
It's a pity that the errorlog didn't specify which database had the problem. We might have narrowed it down a bit quicker then.
Many thanks for your help and quick response - much appreciated.

SharePOint 2010 - SQL Server - Logs filling up drive space so quickly - please help

Hi there,
On my DEV SharePoint SQL Server - suddenly the logs have been filling up space so quickly - this morning I increased 10 GIGs and now it is full again just in a few hours.
What action should I take?
- Is it okay to switch Recovery Model from Full to Simple? (It is DEV server)
- Anything else?
Thanks.
