Hi, we had two strange failures on one of our servers recently:
21.06.2012 22:53:33 Database mandant1/bvmp.fdb will be recreated!
/usr/local/firebird/bin/gbak -user SYSDBA -password XXX -c
/opt/BVMP/Daten/backup/mandant1/bvmp.fbk
/opt/BVMP/Daten/mandant1/bvmp_7d53eddb10.fdb
gbak: ERROR:database shutdown unsuccessful
gbak: ERROR:failed to create database
/opt/BVMP/Daten/mandant1/bvmp_7d53eddb10.fdb
gbak:Exiting before completion due to errors
and
22.06.2012 22:53:56 Database mandant1/bvmp.fdb will be recreated!
/usr/local/firebird/bin/gbak -user SYSDBA -password XXX -c
/opt/BVMP/Daten/backup/mandant1/bvmp.fbk
/opt/BVMP/Daten/mandant1/bvmp_b6746b2e95.fdb
gbak: ERROR:database shutdown unsuccessful
gbak: ERROR:failed to create database
/opt/BVMP/Daten/mandant1/bvmp_b6746b2e95.fdb
gbak:Exiting before completion due to errors
I have no idea why a shutdown against a freshly created database should
fail. The databases are created, empty and valid, a manual shutdown via
gfix doesn't show any errors.
First thought was a timing issue, (we had ntpd issues on this machine)
but a look at the source shows that shutdown_delay is set to zero
dpb.insertByte(isc_dpb_shutdown, isc_dpb_shut_attachment |
isc_dpb_shut_single);
dpb.insertInt(isc_dpb_shutdown_delay, 0);
Any ideas are welcome.
