Hi everyone,
I've got a problem with famd that I cannot figure out.
I'd prefer not to reboot, but will if no one can suggest something that
works...
This is on a Gentoo system, it has been running for months with no
problems. It has not been updated for weeks before the problem occurred,
so it isn't the result of an update.
Looking in the logs, everything is running smoothly for months, then all
of a sudden, I see this:
"Jan 28 14:09:31 moria famd[6105]: segfault at 0000000000000000 rip
0000000000000000 rsp 00007fffffa0acd8 error 14
Jan 28 14:09:31 moria imapd-ssl: FAMNextEvent: Input/output error
Jan 28 14:09:31 moria imapd-ssl: FAMNextEvent: Input/output error
Jan 28 14:09:31 moria imapd-ssl: FAMNextEvent: Input/output error
Jan 28 14:09:31 moria imapd-ssl: FAMNextEvent: Input/output error
Jan 28 14:09:31 moria imapd-ssl: FAMNextEvent: Input/output error
Jan 28 14:09:31 moria imapd-ssl: FAMNextEvent: Input/output error
Jan 28 14:09:31 moria imapd-ssl: FAMNextEvent: Input/output error
Jan 28 14:09:31 moria imapd-ssl: FAMNextEvent: Input/output error"
And from that point on I get a ton of these:
"Jan 28 14:09:31 moria imapd-ssl: Failed to create cache file:
maildirwatch (user)
Jan 28 14:09:31 moria imapd-ssl: Error: Input/output error
Jan 28 14:09:31 moria imapd-ssl: Check for proper operation and
configuration
Jan 28 14:09:31 moria imapd-ssl: of the File Access Monitor daemon (famd)."
Everything is still working fine, just these messages in the logs.
I have tried stopping/restarting courier-imap, famd, and portmap, all to
no avail.
When I try to stop famd, I get the two red [!!] indicating a problem
stopping it. If I try to restart it, I get the same thing, and if I try
to start it, it says it is already started.
It does NOT show up under top or ps aux.
I'm stumped. Anyone else seen this? I've seen a lot of references to
problems with fam, but nothing specific to this.
Tia for any suggestions...
