The fact that you're getting a normal thread termination message in the log is interesting, because it means the thread IS live, but basically irrelevant. The question is why isn't it responding...
Let's see... 1. enable URL_DEBUG in globals-defines.h ... this will spit out lots of messages about the processing of urls and will let us see if ntop is hung - as I suspect - in the select() call, or something else. For that matter, run with --trace-level 4 too. 2. If you're going to alude to a message, give us the EXACT text, not some paraphrase. What 'deadlock' message? 3. The major difference between ntop -d and ntop & would be that -d will execute the fork() and release the terminal, while & will continue to run with the terminal. If you redirect the terminal and run with redirection, something like ntop > ~/ntop_stdout 2> ~/ntop_stderr &, is there anything written to the files?? 4. What does netstat show (netstat -a maybe)? is ntop still listening on port 3000? 5. In the log (with -t 3 or higher) are you seeing the FILEDESCRIPTORBUG: Work-around activated message?? -----Burton > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of > Grilli, Laurent > Sent: Thursday, January 29, 2004 5:00 AM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: [Ntop] NTOP 2.2.99 CVS and FreeBSD4.9 no web report when > running in dae mon mode > > > Hi Burton, Stanley, > > Thanks for your reply, > > In -d mode, > > For the web browser version: > i'm trying with Mozilla 1.6 and Internet Explorer 6.0 SP1 > With wget 57.230.253.254:3000/textinfo.html > it's hung waiting data > > But when I do a kill of ntop I got this in the log file > Jan 29 10:46:38 onefw01 ntop[89037]: Unable to accept HTTP(S) request > (errno=22: Unknown error: 0) > Jan 29 10:46:38 onefw01 ntop[89037]: **WARNING** THREADMGMT: web > connections thread (141222912) terminated... > > And ntop don't shutdown cleanly as it would without the -d mode > > Here is the full log when it goes in daemon mode and when I kill it > > Jan 29 10:40:34 onefw01 ntop[89037]: Now running as a daemon > Jan 29 10:40:34 onefw01 ntop[89037]: **WARNING** AS: Unable to open file > 'AS-list.txt.gz'. > Jan 29 10:40:34 onefw01 ntop[89037]: I18N: This instance of > ntop does not > support multiple languages > Jan 29 10:40:34 onefw01 ntop[89037]: IP2CC: Looking for IP address <-> > Country code mapping file > Jan 29 10:40:34 onefw01 ntop[89037]: IP2CC: reading file > '/usr/local/etc/ntop/p2c.opt.table.gz' > Jan 29 10:40:35 onefw01 ntop[89037]: IP2CC: 49056 records read > Jan 29 10:40:35 onefw01 ntop[89037]: Initializing external applications > Jan 29 10:40:35 onefw01 ntop[89037]: Initializing semaphores, > mutexes and > threads > Jan 29 10:40:35 onefw01 ntop[89037]: THREADMGMT: Started thread > (134691840) for network packet analyser > Jan 29 10:40:35 onefw01 ntop[89037]: THREADMGMT: Started thread > (137298944) for idle hosts detection > Jan 29 10:40:35 onefw01 ntop[89037]: THREADMGMT: Started thread > (137299968) for DNS address resolution > Jan 29 10:40:35 onefw01 ntop[89037]: Calling plugin start functions (if > any) > Jan 29 10:40:35 onefw01 ntop[89037]: Sniffying... > Jan 29 10:40:35 onefw01 ntop[89037]: INIT: Created pid file > (/var/db/ntop/ntop.pid) > Jan 29 10:40:35 onefw01 ntop[89037]: Listening on [xl0] > Jan 29 10:40:35 onefw01 ntop[89037]: Now running as requested > user 'ntop' > (1003:1003) > Jan 29 10:40:35 onefw01 ntop[89037]: Loading Plugins > Jan 29 10:40:35 onefw01 ntop[89037]: Searching for plugins in > /usr/local/lib/ntop/plugins > Jan 29 10:40:35 onefw01 ntop[89037]: ICMP: Welcome to > icmpWatchPlugin.
