You aren't reading my replies. I read and replied to each one of the following. I'll clarify again. > I told you *exactly* what kind of network problem I think it is (IPv6 > including the details). Yes, and I confirmed that this isn't the problem. There's no IPv6 address in /etc/hosts, nor does this host use DNS at all. No way for it to derive "::1" from its name anywhere. (and I don't use localhost anywhere, but likewise localhost has no ::1 entry) > I told you it might be an OS problem and that you should ask FreeBSD, For which I pointed out that a problem which affects only Bacula will be referred back to here. Why would it not be? "Bacula is crashing..." because they will immediately (and rightly so) send me right back to these lists. > and that you could search the Internet for _umtx_op. I did. I found 6 references to it, most of which don't appear related, and none of which identified either a bug or a fix. Any actual problem tends to have numerous reports -- 6 unrelated entries spanning 10 years that mention this function doesn't make much of a case for anything. If I overlooked a clear problem related to this, or a patch related to this, I'm happy to re-read. But I read them all carefully, and all related messages in those mailing lists, and I saw nothing that indicated a clear bug or even a similar problem. Not a single one of them relates to freebsd 7.2 and only one relates to freebsd 7 at all. Most of them seriously predate FreeBSD 6.3. And guess, what -- I've run bacula on every version from 4.4 up to 6.3 without any drama. So yes, there very well could be a FreeBSD related bug here. But without any more information, short of reading the code myself from scratch and building test cases, I have no place to start. > After you suggested gdb I said that could "possibly" provide some > information. I'm sorry, I haven't had time to get a gdb dump. It didn't appear likely to be received well. If you'll accept it, I'll prioritize it. > There is no reason for me to describe how Bacula works because at > this point I don't think this is a Bacula problem. Well if you were to describe what it's doing, it might help me identify things I could investigate which could further isolate, identify or resolve the bug. Give me somewhere useful to investigate. > You have consumed about 45 minutes of my time; you not read or have > rejected > every idea I have given you No, I have read everything you've said. I responded to each in turn, and have done everything you suggested other than walk over to the freebsd mailing lists and say "Bacula is crashing -- help" because they will immediately (and rightly so) suggest I contact you. -- Jo Rhett Net Consonance : consonant endings by net philanthropy, open source and other randomness ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Come build with us!
