We just updated to 1.11.2 (from 1.10.8; both client and server are Red Hat) and are now occasionally seeing the error:
Protocol error: uncounted data discarded These factors seem to be involved: 1) someone checks out a large number of files (thousands) 2) when the system is busy (load average >3) 3) using a newly set tag and the result is that files are missing from the resulting workarea. I'm working to get more resources for our server machine, but would feel better if there's a more definitive solution. In searching the archives, I found a few reports of this reported in the past few years (links and synopses (sp?) below), but nothing conclusive or particularly helpful. Has anyone made any progress on this? Thanks for any help, =Bob= http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg16744.html Larry Jones says it's hard to repeat and appears to be harmless. (it's harmless as long as you don't need all your files the good news is it seems to work OK the second time) http://mail.gnu.org/pipermail/bug-cvs/2001-November/006607.html out of memory condition? http://www.geocrawler.com/archives/3/383/2001/8/0/6408777/ crucial code removed? http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg12418.html fails in script, but works by hand. http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg12421.html fails when network busy http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg12468.html retry never fails http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg10094.html 1.11 worked, but 1.11.1p1 fails (related FIXME comment in server.c?)
