Core file - and the gdb output from the core file, please ? Henrik

Problem! this is a classified system.
Well I ran our very old gdb (gdb hobbitd_client ../tmp/core )
it says stopped at line 1497
for (argi = 1; (argi < argc); argi++) {
If that helps.

hobbitd_client is restarted automatically. It was probably just the right set of circumstances combined with a particular client message that caused it to crash. Henrik

Ouch - I see.

Hmm - that doesn't really make sense. I can see that's from the
very beginning of the program when it goes through the commandline
arguments; this cannot be the location where it crashes after
running for a while.
So either your gdb is broken, or the hobbitd_client binary doesn't match
the source files you've got.
The gdb backtrace ("bt" command) still would help, because it would at
least give me the call-chain of where it crashes. I'm perfectly happy
with just the names of the program-functions and the linenumbers; you
can edit out all of the private data-strings.

Its problable a broken gdb. But how do I envoke bt command in gdb? how else to debug ? Command line option on hobbitd_client? Ill try 16-Jun-2006 snapshot.

After loading the program and core file into gdb, enter "bt<enter>" at the "gdb>" prompt.

Add "--debug" to the hobbitd_client command line. Regards, Henrik

Ok the --debug help me locate the problem. A sol 5.6 client was causing it . After shutting this client on and off a couple of time to verify it, I rolled back to a june 8 build and its fine! Since Ive just two 5.6 host no problem. I have not updated any other client thats I can tell but my severs 5.9 so I guess that ok. Question can I just tar up the client on the server and use it on other sol 5.9 systems and any changes need to be made after untarring? Also is there a way that clients can id themselves on the web page? Lastly, a requested , be nice if at least "drop host test" could be added to disable/enable page! "drop host" understand would be more complicated.

Could you mail me a copy of the ~hobbit/client/tmp/msg.*.txt file from one of those Solaris 5.6 systems ? Or is it one of the secret servers?

Yes, the client should be copy-able across clients, as long as they report to the same Hobbit server. If not, you'll have to change the server-IP setting in hobbitclient.cfg.
Also is there a way that clients can id themselves on the web page?
Not sure what you mean with this. Regards, Henrik

Yes it is! I can see about getting it sanitized . But the good/bad news is that it seam to be JUST this one client. My other 5.6 is ok. And I DID speak to soon ; using the same client from the one that working (snapshot from June 8) it still crashes the hobbitd_client.

Ah! I don't always update clients right away. I m still running bb clients but they are easy to spot. But currently IM running hobbit client on hpux 11 (hpux 10.20 WAS test awhile ago and worked but I went back to bb because of client side ext scripts that needed to be converted) , Sol 2.6 , 2.8, 2.9 (Ive a 2.10 not tried yet) and linux . I could and hopeful will be running AIX 5.x , maybe VAX , SGI and NT . So if I could click on say the info coulumn and it would say: client dwvob13k.sunos Hobbit Client 4.2-beta-20060605 date June 6 2006 Or maybe in the Client data thats sent.
