Hello all,

Looks like I found the favorite crash in hobbit. I am running 4.1.1
and just "upgraded" from bb. I followed the bb->hobbit instructions to
the t and everything appears to be working except for this test ( and
the tests associated with it ).
I tried commenting out everything but one line in my bb-hosts, but it
just seems like if I have more than one test it croaks with a seg
fault.

Here:

Environment BBLOCATION=''
Environment CONNTEST='TRUE'
Environment IPTEST_2_CLEAR_ON_FAILED_CONN='TRUE'

Service list dump
./bbcmd bbtest-net --debug --ping --checkresponse
(skip few dozen lines)

    datacallback=0, finalcallback=0) at contest.c:182
182             newtest->sendtxt = (reqmsg ? reqmsg :
newtest->svcinfo->sendtxt);


It dies on the first host it loads the tests for. Here is my first host:

page mail Mail servers
group-compress
<ip>     mailserver # smtp pop3 imap ssh !dns !ftp

Anyone have any hints on what to do?
What happens on this line: newtest->sendtxt = (reqmsg ? reqmsg :
newtest->svcinfo->sendtxt); ?
If I knew C, I'd contribute:)

Thanks

Here's an update.

If I only have one server in the bb-hosts bbtest-net doesn't fail with
any of these services:

<ip>     hostname # ntp dns conn ldap ssh2 ssh1 bbnet pop rsync bbd
ftps telnets smtps pop3s imaps nntps clamd ldaps vnc

If I use *any* of the other services, that is:

ftp
ssh
telnet
smtp
imap
imap2
imap3
imap4

I get an immediate:

2005-09-16 14:33:12 Adding tcp test IP=<ip>, port=143, service=imap, silent=0
Aborted (core dumped)

This might help too:

Whoa! Why's it looking for 0x4? Is that a bug?

Thanks

Something's up with your service definitions. "newtest->svcinfo"
is obviously bogus, which is why you get the segfault when it
tries to reference newtest->svcinfo->sendtxt.

Is "imap" listed if you run "bbtest-net --services" ? It should read

Name      : imap
  Sendtext: ABC123 LOGOUT\r\n
  Sendlen : 15
  Exp.text: * OK
  Exp.len : 4
  Exp.ofs : 0
  Flags   : 1
  Port    : 143

Also, check the ~hobbit/server/etc/bb-services file - is it readable
by your hobbit users ? What's the content of it ? You can compare it
with the one in the hobbit-4.1.1 sources (in the bbnet/ direcory).

Heh,

I guess we know what happens know if someone were to accidently use
the bb-services file that comes from bb-gen instead of the one from
hobbit:)
That was my problem, I copied the real one (back?) over and it's
working just fine.

Thanks Henrik!
