2014-07-30 Thread Gustavo Niemeyer
Alright, the guess last night was correct, and the candidate fix as well. I've managed to reproduce the problem by stressing out the scenario described with 4 concurrent runners running the following two operations, meanwhile the chaos mechanism injects random slowdowns in various critical points:

2014-07-24 Thread Gustavo Niemeyer
This error should never happen on a healthy database. The only case I've debugged with such an issue was on a system that had a corrupted database due to an out-of-space situation. The reason why this should never happen is clear in the code of the txn package: before anything is ever done with re

@John, it's definitely a bad idea to have transactions in a capped collection for that sort of reason, but as far as I can see the _txns_ collection, the one holding the transactions themselves, is not capped. Having missing logs for a transaction would not cause this issue. -- You received this

Looking at the logs from Adam that Nate forwarded to me, I can see the database is being terminated and restarted over and over and over, every few seconds. Looking at logs around it, looks like at least rsyslogd is also being re-freshed on the same cadence. By itself, this should not be an issue,
