Sorry to reply to my own post. I found a bug in bextract. The length of the
buffer for
un-compressing records was not set. This results in the buffer requesting a
huge chunk of
memory. This patch fixes that:
diff -c bextract.c.org bextract.c
*** bextract.c.org 2010-02-11 18:40:12.000000000 -0600
--- bextract.c 2010-02-11 19:36:00.000000000 -0600
***************
*** 408,414 ****
case STREAM_WIN32_GZIP_DATA:
#ifdef HAVE_LIBZ
if (extract) {
! uLong compress_len;
int stat;
if (rec->Stream == STREAM_SPARSE_GZIP_DATA) {
--- 408,414 ----
case STREAM_WIN32_GZIP_DATA:
#ifdef HAVE_LIBZ
if (extract) {
! uLong compress_len = sizeof_pool_memory(compress_buf);
int stat;
if (rec->Stream == STREAM_SPARSE_GZIP_DATA) {
I'm still left with another problem. The extracted file is not the right size.
There are
two copies of the bacula.sql file in the disk volume. When bextract runs, there
is no way
to tell it which one. The extracted file ends up an order of magnitude smaller
than it
should be.
"/strongbox/bacula/bacula" for reading.
