We have a server with 10 running mongrel_cluster instances with apache
in front of them, and every now and then one or some of them hang.
No activity is seen in the database (we're using activerecord sessions).
Mysql with innodb tables. show innodb status shows no locks. show
processlist shows nothing.
The server is linux debian 4.0
Ruby is: ruby 1.8.6 (2008-03-03 patchlevel 114) [i486-linux]
Rails is: Rails 1.1.2 (yes, quite old)
We're using the native mysql connector (gem install mysql)
"strace -p PID" gives the following in a loop for the hung mongrel
process:
gettimeofday({1219834026, 235289}, NULL) = 0
select(4, [3], [0], [], {0, 905241}) = -1 EBADF (Bad file descriptor)
gettimeofday({1219834026, 235477}, NULL) = 0
select(4, [3], [0], [], {0, 905053}) = -1 EBADF (Bad file descriptor)
gettimeofday({1219834026, 235654}, NULL) = 0
select(4, [3], [0], [], {0, 904875}) = -1 EBADF (Bad file descriptor)
gettimeofday({1219834026, 235829}, NULL) = 0
select(4, [3], [0], [], {0, 904700}) = -1 EBADF (Bad file descriptor)
gettimeofday({1219834026, 236017}, NULL) = 0
select(4, [3], [0], [], {0, 904513}) = -1 EBADF (Bad file descriptor)
gettimeofday({1219834026, 236192}, NULL) = 0
select(4, [3], [0], [], {0, 904338}) = -1 EBADF (Bad file descriptor)
gettimeofday({1219834026, 236367}, NULL) = 0
...
I used lsof and found that the process used 67 file descriptors (lsof -p
PID |wc -l)
Is there any other way I can debug this, so that I could for example
determine which file descriptor is "bad"?
Any other info or suggestions? Anybody else seen this?
The site is fairly used, but not overly so, load averages usually around
0.3.
