Hello, I have just now experienced a possible new bug with bacula 5.0.1.
The symptoms are this: bacula-sd crashes bacula-dir continues to run bacula-dir then spews out identical "Intervention needed" emails until manually restarted The first time this happened over a weekend and upon returning I found my inbox has about 120,000 bacula emails, all the SAME and of this type: "15-Apr 10:02 client-fd JobId 100001: Fatal error: backup.c:1048 Network send error to SD. ERR=Broken pipe" It happened again just now (second time since upgrading from 3.0.3 to 5.0.1) and I managed to stop the director with only a few thousand emails going out. So there are really 2 issues here: 1) Why does the director apparently get stuck in an infinite loop of sending the same email message? Is this a known bug? 2) Regarding the SD, I received one alert of this type, the rest like the above: "15-Apr 10:02 server-sd: ERROR in lock.c:268 Failed ASSERT: dev->blocked()" A traceback like: -- ptrace: Operation not permitted. /var/bacula/work/29091: No such file or directory. $1 = 0 /opt/bacula-5.0.1/scripts/btraceback.gdb:2: Error in sourced command file: No symbol "exename" in current context. -- And a bactrace like: -- Attempt to dump current JCRs JCR=0x19a24888 JobId=100000 name=client_1.2010-04-14_18.02.33_41 JobStatus=l use_count=1 JobType=B JobLevel=F sched_time=14-Apr-2010 21:35 start_time=14-Apr-2010 21:35 end_time=31-Dec-1969 16:00 wait_time=31-Dec-1969 16:00 db=(nil) db_batch=(nil) batch_started=0 JCR=0x1981b248 JobId=100001 name=client_10.2010-04-14_20.00.15_04 JobStatus=R use_count=1 JobType=B JobLevel=I sched_time=15-Apr-2010 09:15 start_time=15-Apr-2010 09:15 end_time=31-Dec-1969 16:00 wait_time=31-Dec-1969 16:00 db=(nil) db_batch=(nil) batch_started=0 Attempt to dump plugins. Hook count=0 -- Both clients and server seem healthy, except for the SD crash. Any ideas? thanks!
