Package: bacula-director-pgsql
Version: 1.36.2-1
When the machine running the file daemon is offline, the bacula director
crashes with a SIGSEGV within 2 hours after trying to perform the backup.
The problem first appeared after upgrading bacula from 1.36.1-1 to
1.36.2-1.
The time span of 2 hours could be related to my setup, which retries
failed jobs hourly, but this is just a guess.
Attached are the director configuration and a logfile excerpt.
Host james is running the director and storage daemon, while the file
daemon runs on host guitar.
No email was sent about the failed job found in the log, at least not
directly. When crashing, the director tries to produce a backtrace,
which also fails and results in a confusing email being sent to the
administrator:
Subject: Bacula traceback
Date: Sat, 09 Apr 2005 14:05:04 +0200
(no debugging symbols found)
Using host libthread_db library "/lib/libthread_db.so.1".
ptrace: Operation not permitted.
/var/lib/bacula/1634: No such file or directory.
/usr/lib/bacula/btraceback.gdb:1: Error in sourced command file:
No symbol table is loaded. Use the "file" command.
Obviously, no further backups will be performed until the director is
restarted manually.
I'll be happy to provide further information, if necessary.
Cheers,
Mirko
