On my cpu server, replica seems to be confused over its current point in time.
When I first ran it today, I got a bunch of (correct) local conflicts, and several files were updated. I resolved a few of the local conflicts and re-ran, and while several things worked fine, some odd behavior started showing. Replica always tries to update three files, but never actually does so. There were existing versions of the files; I've tried removing them and recreating them. Replica notices the changes, but still won't update them. (pardon the bunch of -c's below. pull is a function calling glenda's pull. this is as hostowner.) cpu% pull -c acme/bin/386 -c 386/9pc -c 386/9load -c 386/bin -c 386/9loaddebug -c 386/9loadlite -c 386/9loadlitedebug -c 386/9pxeload -c 386/9pxeloaddebug -c rc/bin/9fs -c rc/bin/termrc -c rc/bin/cpurc -c rc/bin/cpurc.local -c lib/ndb/auth -c 386/9pc -c 386/9pc.gz -c 386/9pccpu -c 386/9pccpu.gz -c 386/9pcdisk -c 386/9pcdisk.gz -c 386/9pcf -c 386/9pcf.gz -c acme/mail/src a sys/lib/sysconfig/auth/boundary/httppasswords 660 sys sys 1016833584 ! sys/lib/sysconfig/auth/boundary/keys: locally created; will not overwrite ! sys/lib/sysconfig/auth/boundary/netkeys: locally created; will not overwrite If I leave out the various -c arguments, replica has no idea I've blessed those files. It's correct that httppasswords doesn't exist while the other two do. If I give it a -s, It'll make all three "a" lines; in any case, nothing in that directory changes. It is noticing other changes; for example, these two just showed up in a successive run: cpu% pull -c acme/bin/386 -c 386/9pc -c 386/9load -c 386/bin -c 386/9loaddebug -c 386/9loadlite -c 386/9loadlitedebug -c 386/9pxeload -c 386/9pxeloaddebug -c rc/bin/9fs -c rc/bin/termrc -c rc/bin/cpurc -c rc/bin/cpurc.local -c lib/ndb/auth -c 386/9pc -c 386/9pc.gz -c 386/9pccpu -c 386/9pccpu.gz -c 386/9pcdisk -c 386/9pcdisk.gz -c 386/9pcf -c 386/9pcf.gz -c acme/mail/src a sys/lib/sysconfig/auth/boundary/httppasswords 660 sys sys 1016833584 ! sys/lib/sysconfig/auth/boundary/keys: locally created; will not overwrite ! sys/lib/sysconfig/auth/boundary/netkeys: locally created; will not overwrite c sys/man/2/atof c sys/src/cmd/fossil/cache.c Those files are indeed updated on my disk, and don't show up in further replica runs. There are corresponding entries in /dist/replica/client/plan9.(log db). I can't find a definition of /dist/replica/client/plan9.time. I noticed the permissions were weird for that directory (not writable by hostowner), and the contents seems odd: 1252443603 7182 The first number is in September of last year. I take the next to be the "gen", although I'm not really clear how to interpret that. Fixing permissions made no difference. I'm stumped. Anyone have any ideas?
