Hi ! I got the same report from customers:
timeout waiting for update: 59331.0.n.childs We never use anything except ns_cache_create, ns_cache_flush and ns_cache_eval commands. This kind of error was happening much more often before and I have tried to fix that bug some days ago. Aparently I found out that due to the bug in cache.c, we always have expired the cached entry and the ns_cache_eval was just re-caching it all the time. This obviously exposed the problem more often than now, as this bug is fixed. But, the "real" bug is still lurking there. This means that if you do not use timed caches, your program might get stucked in the cache code forever. Again: this might not happen to you in million years but it can happen the very next millisecond... I cannot get any decent test to expose this bug, as this is obviously some race condition in the code. I hope to be able to get that working today, by reading the code and trying to understand what it does. Please excuse me if I do some "non-optimal" changes to get it working properly. At the moment, the correct operation is paramount to us whereas speed/performance is not. Cheers, Zoran
