cron job causes fwrite: broken pipe error, runs fine on command line

2009-11-09 Thread John Mendenhall
I have several openbsd 4.4 boxes, all of which are running
spamd.  I have a cron job which runs a script, which has the
following commands in it:

-
#!/bin/sh
PATH=/bin:/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin
export PATH
FIELDNUM=6
echo oldest spamdb grey entries:
spamdb | grep ^GREY | sort -t \| -k $FIELDNUM -n | head
echo
echo oldest spamdb grey entry date timestamp:
DATEINSECONDS=`spamdb | grep ^GREY | sort -t \| -k $FIELDNUM -n | head -1 | cut 
-d\| -f$FIELDNUM`
date -r $DATEINSECONDS
-

The purpose of the script is to show me the oldest entries
in the spamdb.

This is the output (with destination domains replaced with 'domain'):

uname -a produces 'OpenBSD yosemite.surfutopia.net 4.4 GENERIC.MP#844 i386'

I have read the associated man pages.  I have searched the
search engines.  I was not able to find anything to try to
fix this.

I am sure this has something to do with terminals or ttys,
or something like that.  Or it could just be I am dumping
the additional data spit out by sort and sort can't handle
that, from within cron.  I am hoping this is just something
stupid I am doing wrong that is easy to fix.

Please point me in the direction to find the solution for
this issue.  Thanks in advance!

 Well, sort is obviously calling fwrite to write on stdout, which
 head reads.  When head has had enough, it closes its input,
 which is from the pipe.  fwrite then terminates with an EPIPE
 error, which sort is not (seemingly) handling properly.  (Looks
 like it is calling warn(3) or err(3).)  Maybe sort(3) is not complaining
 if  isatty(fileno(stdout)).  Only the source knows for sure.
 
 The mystery to me is why the error message does not appear
 when the pipe is run on a tty.  (I can duplicate your error easily).
 
 To me this looks like normal operation.  You seem to be getting
 the output you want, right?

Yup.  So, I guess I can just throw away the standard error, to
clean it up a bit.  Definitely not a real issue.  Just a curiosity
that I like solving.  I was just wondering why it runs differently
in different environments.

Re: openbsd 4.0 installed, need to add network interface after install

2007-06-29 Thread John Mendenhall
Stuart,

 I'm far from a guru, but looking at your dmesg I don't see
 a lan card there at all. Here are the first few steps:
 
   1- Check the hardware compatability list to make sure the
  lan card is supported.
   2- Take a look and make sure the lan card is seated in it's
  slot properly.  I have had this happen a few times with 
  smaller cards not seating all the way (it's probably because
  of my fat paws).

The linksys lne100tx card is listed twice, once as
4.x, and another time with no version.  My lne100tx
cards are both v5.1.  I have tried both.  Neither
work.  No lights on back.  Nothing.

Is it possible for the pci slot to be bad?

 btw, for an add on card, you probably won't see anything in the
 systems bios, that is unless bios systems have
 gotten much more functional than they were last time I looked.

Understood.

Thanks so much for your input.

 3. Temporarily boot from another operating system's live CD, e.g.
FreeBSD 6.2 disc 1 (select fixit mode to get a shell)
 
For a Linux view try Ubuntu 6.06.1, or Fedora 7 for a more
bleeding-edge kernel. These two require you to wait for a graphical
environment to start though.
 
 These will show you if another OS recognises the card(s) you have.

I booted an ultimate boot disk, with several small linux distros
on them.  None of them found the card.

I reseated the card.  No go.
I tried another card I had, same model.  Nothing.
I am doing this in a 1U box, so there is a pci 1u
riser card.  Could it be the riser is bad?  Or,
could the pci slot itself be bad?

What is the best way to test the pci slot?

Thanks!

openbsd 4.0 installed, need to add network interface after install

2007-06-28 Thread John Mendenhall
openbsd gurus,

As the saga continues...
I have a newly built server with openbsd 4.0.
During installation, it did not find the onboard
lan interface, which I did not realize until after
the installation had completed.

I made sure the bios was set properly.  There
was no LAN option in the BIOS.

I assumed the onboard lan interface was bad.
This has happened before so I added a linksys
lan card in the system.

I rebooted.  I checked the BIOS for any LAN options.
Nothing.  I booted into openbsd.  No interfaces
created.

How do I get the system to discover the network
interface?

I have been searching the net for anything like
this and have not found anything that has worked.

Do I need to reinstall the system?
Or, is there some tool I can use to rediscover the
network interface so it gets setup properly?

Thanks in advance for any pointers you can provide.

openbsd 3.9, openbsd 4.0 install errors, most likely hardware

2007-06-12 Thread John Mendenhall
openbsd gurus,

As my saga continues...
I have a newly built server on which I am attempting to install
openbsd 4.0.  Problems occurred on install of sets, where comp
set keeps throwing errors.  Suggestion was made that it was probably
a bad CD.  Try a previous CD of an earlier version.  I had 3.9
available.  The logs of the attempts are posted at:

  http://www.surfutopia.net/openbsd/

The logs are separated by the boot log, an install log not
including the install of the sets, and two passes of the install
of the sets, all dying in the comp set install.

I have two drives in the server.  I only installed on one (wd0).
I have had the same types of errors when only installing on the
second (wd1).  So, it is most likely not a problem with the
specific drive.  However, the probability could exist.

So, based on these logs, from different openbsd cd versions,
my hypothesis is there is some weird sort of hardware problem.
My question is, what tools do you all use to determine where
the hardware problem could be?

I have already ran the memory through the memtests.  There is
not a problem there.

I am willing to try (almost) anything to play around with
this.  I would like to get the server up and running so I
can move on to the next one.  No time pressure, though.

Thank you in advance for any pointers you can provide.

Thanks!

 In my case when I had the same problem it was the CD-rom reader that

Could that explain the errors I am seeing?
It appears the error is on the write, not the read,
though I could be wrong.

Re: openbsd 3.9, openbsd 4.0 install errors, most likely hardware

2007-06-12 Thread John Mendenhall
 Things to try (in any order you please):
 1. check IDE cables
 2. check whether Master/Slave/CS settings are correct
 3. In case Brian is right, you might want to put CD on the same cable
 as hd0, to slow-down IDE.
 4. also check where you disks are connected - to IDE bus or to ATA-133
 controller on the board. Sometimes it does make a difference.
 5. my BIOS was updated to the latest one, as there was some bug about
 large hard disks not working correctly (your ones seem to be 120G, so
 it is unlikely BIOS is a problem here).
 6. the last step would be to try another harddisk.
 
 Or (just got this idea) you could simply try ftp install. If CD-rom
 reader is bad, boot from CD but install from ftp - this would
 definitely rule out the 'bad cd-rom drive' hypothesis :)

I just tried the ftp install.  Same problem, same
location.

I have tried another hard disk, same approximate
size.  Same problem, same location.

I am going to look for any bios updates online,
if I can find any.  I will also be checking the
cables, master/slave/cs settings, and cd + hd0
on same cable.

As for IDE bus or ATA-133 controller on board,
the cables are connected to the std ide0 and ide1
connectors on the motherboard.  When you say IDE
bus, are you referring to another connector?

Peter,

 google turns up a few references on various BSD mailing list for the
 search string OpenBSD ffs_valloc: dup alloc.  No clear cut
 solutions, but the popular suspicion runs in the direction of buggy
 (S)ATA controllers or, of course, possibly subtle, hard to trigger
 bugs in the operating system's controller support code.  Swapping out
 motherboards could be unpleasant, but seeing that the error occurs at
 pretty much exactly the same spot on the CDs, have you tried swapping
 out the CD/DVD drive for a different unit?

I tried loading the sets via ftp, same error, same location.

 I've seen this before.  On old HP gear.  Is your HP?  Only FreeBSD would 
 run on the system.  NetBSD/OpenBSD dead in the water.  Some obscure bug

 One of many reason why I want nothing to do with HP (H-PHUX) ever again.
 
 Anyway, how about underclocking your Duron some?  Reset the BIOS timings

Re: new openbsd 4.0 server, panic on ufsdirhash

2007-05-19 Thread John Mendenhall
 OK, now I'm clueless why this happens.  I didn't see in your verbose
 dmesg at all any obvious PCI busses or devices.  Yet the normal dmesg
 lists your PCI devices.  I could be reading the devices wrong, but I
 read in your verbose dmesg that it found:
 1: Audio
 2: Realtek Ethernet (probably a PCI device??)
 3: isa0 bus
 4: Keyboard/mouse ports (which I really think they are attached on the
 ISA bus, internally on the motherboard)
 5: speaker (again, same as #4, on the ISA bus in the motherboard)
 6: parallel (ditto)
 7: npx0 (I think this is your coprocessor, and I don't know what bus it
 is on)
 8: COM/Serial ports (ditto as #4)
 9: Floppy drive (I would think this is on the ISA bus, but I am not
 sure)
 
 Aside from #2, the realtek ethernet, I am not seeing any signs of PCI
 detection.  But how can it boot off the drive, which is on pciide0
 (from original, normal dmesg in digest #783).  That device sure looks
 like it's on the PCI bus.  I'm lost on this one, I totally expected to
 see anything, SOMETHING about the pci bus (wouldn't it be pci0?).

I have no idea why that is happening.  Strange.

 John did state he has another version, and if *THIS* thing fails
 horribly bad on trying to get more information, I would try the other
 version.  ...
 
 John, please try 4.0 and then doing a source upgrade to 4.1, if this
 verbose dmesg doesn't help anybody.  Sorry for bringing it up :(

This is the 4.0 release.  I usually run a release behind.  And, I have
not ordered a 4.1 yet.  I will in the next week or two.

I do have v3.9 and earlier releases available.

 I don't know if Open would have any of those tools built in.  I don't
 have a ready openbsd box right now.

If anyone knows of a tool I can use to determine the ATA
controller, or any other hw things I need to find out,
please post any pointers.

 Google search for thunderboot ultimate boot cd doesn't reveal
 anything.  it suggested a spelling correction, for thunderboom, which
 didn't easily reveal any bootable cd.  A link to the ISO and I'd offer
 what I can for diagnostics and probing solutions.

The ultimate boot cd is something I got off ebay.
Not a brand name, but lots of the tools we need
for mem testing.

 Is there a way to get the kernel to more verbosely announce what it's
 probing and configuring, like what FreeBSD's boot loader's -v option
 will do?  Haven't tried, haven't looked anything up.

Anyone know how to boot with more messages?
man boot doesn't show any verbose options.

 We are definately narrowing down the culprit, and I just hope we come
 to a solid conclusion.

Amen.

Thanks!

Well, I posted the dmesg at the beginning of this thread.
Here is an excerpt with the ide/ata hardware:

-

There may be more.
Please let me know if I need to repost it.

  man boot doesn't show any verbose options.
 
 Use UKC (boot -c), and the verbose command.  See boot_config(8).

Is this supported when booting from cd?  I can only boot from the
cd right now.  Once it starts copying data, it crashes in the comp
set.

Re: log rotation

2007-05-15 Thread John Mendenhall
 If you don't mind a second or two of down time then you can use
 something like this in newsyslog.conf as a restart command:
 
 apachectl stop;sleep 1;apachctl start;sleep 10;apachectl start
 
 The first sleep gives apache a second to finish active requests before
 trying to start again.  The second sleep and start is to catch the case
 where the first start fails because apache is still running.

I have a script which does the following:

+ rotates logs
+ calls apachectl stop (twice, with sleep 2 after each call)
+ calls apachectl stop and greps the output to make sure it is stopped
  (looks for 'not running')
+ if I don't find not running, pages me
+ run apachectl startssl

This is all in a wrapper script which then calls awstats
after a successful rotate and restart.

Works for us.

Re: new openbsd 4.0 server, panic on ufsdirhash

2007-05-15 Thread John Mendenhall
Tim,

 John, since you were able to boot the ultimate boot cd and run both
 drives completely, I don't think any hardware is the culprit.  Your CD
 drive, Hard Drive(s), memory, etc all work under that OS.
 
 My mindset is now leading to some bug that OpenBSD is doing (probably)
 with the ATA controller.  Probe from the ultimate boot cd to see what
 ATA controller it is using, and then find what OpenBSD is finding the
 ATA controller to be.  A minor model difference could be the culprit
 (model 1234 versus model 1234a, for example).

I am using the thunderboot ultimate boot cd.
Any hints on which tool could get the ata controller the box is using?
I can see the ATA-# supported (6,5,4,3,2).  Lots of other information.
I don't see a model/version number yet.

I will keep checking all the tools on here.

Re: new openbsd 4.0 server, panic on ufsdirhash

2007-05-14 Thread John Mendenhall
 Or, perhaps, the drive is just going bad.  I would have
 expected errors on installing the os if that were the
 case.

We have done a low level disk format using an ultimate
boot cd.  Didn't output any errors.  Did this on both
drives in the system.  Took a very long time.

Then, tried to install the OS.  Received a panic on
installing the comp set, ffs_valloc dup alloc.
Reconfigured to have all install go to one drive.
Same error, different inode.  Tried all on other drive,
same error, different inode.  Kept trying it over and
over.  Always panicked on comp set.  Always same error
of ffs_valloc dup alloc.  Always a different inode.

I am unable to copy in the actual error.  I just have
this on a monitor in the room.  No console capability.

Same dmesg as before in this thread.  I can post again
if needed.

My question is, to debug this, or fix it, do I need
to start swapping out cables, hard disks, motherboard,
etc?  Any hints or suggestions are appreciated.

Thanks in advance!

 Running memtest86 is pretty painless, so that's usually a good first
 step.

Already done that.  No errors.

All hardware is as received, no overclocking is being done.

The system memory was the first issue we had.  I have set
the bios such that the system memory gives no errors on very
long memtest runs.

Currently, we are running a low level format of the two disks.
No errors yet, but will run another day or so.

Then, we'll reinstall the os and see how it goes.

Why would I want to cat /dev/ad0s1?
Or, are you referring to the actual drive, which is /dev/wd0?

 Good luck.

 'cat'ting the drive is simply reading data from the surface and sending
 it to the bitbucket, so we can see if we can read the surface of the
 drive without errors.
 
 A low-level format is an interesting twist, and I would like to see if
 that helps.  I've witnessed myself a drive with bad blocks dissapear
 after a high-level format.  It was the oddest of things, the FS itself
 was corrupted and a disk check didn't help the situation.  Maybe it was
 a glitch, I don't know.  I put that drive back into rotation.

We'll see how it goes.

If I still get errors, I'll try to cat the drive to devnull
and see what happens.

It would be nice to get disk errors instead of a panic,
though.  Perhaps anything in a log file, or a console
message.  But, panic just stops everything and it's
difficult to tell what actually happened.

Or, perhaps, the drive is just going bad.  I would have
expected errors on installing the os if that were the
case.

Re: new openbsd 4.0 server, panic on ufsdirhash

2007-05-07 Thread John Mendenhall
I have yet to receive any response to the panics I have
been experiencing.  Is there something else I need to provide
that will get me pointed in the right direction?

Are there tools available to test the connection to the 
hard drive, or to test the hard drive itself?  I used format
when administering a sun box, which did a halfway decent
job of running through the whole disk in analysis mode, which
could test without destrying data, and could test while destroying
data.

What is available for openbsd?  Or, can I just use something like
the ultimate boot cd and run tests on the hard disks?

Thanks in advance!

Re: new openbsd 4.0 server, panic on ufsdirhash

2007-05-07 Thread John Mendenhall
Artur,

 Have you done forced fsck of the partitions? This sounds like a
 problem with the data you have on disk. It would be even nicer if you
 could update to a newer fsck because it has been updated to deal with
 many new strange corner cases we've been seeing. Although, that might
 or might not require a fully -current system, I'm not fully aware of
 everything that has been going in fsck, but some of the ffs2 support
 might have messed things up.
 
 We've seen one of those panics recently on an important OpenBSD
 infrastructure machine and that led to a lot of fsck work (since
 fsck didn't catch the particular problem). But on production
 machines we deal with filesystem corruption by simply dumping the
 filesystem and restoring it from scratch. You might want to try
 that as well.

We have done a forced fsck on the partition with the
error.  The problem is, there is no data other than
the openbsd install.  All I was trying to do was load
the source from the openbsd cd into /usr/src.

I don't need to restore since this is a new machine.
I have not done anything to it.

I'll just reinstall the entire thing.  Unless someone
wants me to try something else.

Thanks!

Re: openbsd 4.0 server, new setup, getting panics

2007-05-03 Thread John Mendenhall
  The symptoms you describe sound like classic hardware problems,
  however, I see a couple things worthy of note in your dmesg:
  
   -
   OpenBSD 4.0 (GENERIC) #1107: Sat Sep 16 19:15:58 MDT 2006
   [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/src/sys/arch/i386/compile/GENERIC
   cpu0: AMD Duron(tm) Processor (AuthenticAMD 686-class, 64KB L2 cache) 
   1.61 GHz
   cpu0: 
   FPU,V86,DE,PSE,TSC,MSR,PAE,MCE,CX8,SEP,MTRR,PGE,MCA,CMOV,PAT,PSE36,MMX,FXSR,SSE
  
  No idea why, but I've seen a number of AMD systems of that
  vintage which were temperamental about their RAM.  Wasn't that
  the RAM was bad...but the system bus timing was off in some
  way.
  
  Curiously, these machines had more-than-usual amounts of clock
  speed control, and they seemed to settle down by cranking down
  the clock speed a tad.  You won't miss it, really.
 
 I have set the front side bus to be 200, instead of 266 and
 am re-running the memory tests.

I was still getting errors after decreasing the fsb speed.
I modified the bios as follows:
 - sdram timing by spd enabled
 - auto detect pci clock enabled
 - clk spread spectrum enabled
I retested the memory, ran it overnight using memtest86+.
No errors.

I don't know which of the above fixed the problem.
However, it is not causing any memory errors now.

Thanks so much for the pointers.

Re: openbsd 4.0 server, new setup, getting panics

2007-05-02 Thread John Mendenhall
I had only one memory stick in there.  I swapped it out
with another memory stick, still errors.  I swapped it
out with a third, still errors.  Possibly all memory is
subpar.  It was just what I had laying around.  All sticks
could be bad.

 The symptoms you describe sound like classic hardware problems,
 however, I see a couple things worthy of note in your dmesg:

  OpenBSD 4.0 (GENERIC) #1107: Sat Sep 16 19:15:58 MDT 2006
  [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/src/sys/arch/i386/compile/GENERIC
  cpu0: AMD Duron(tm) Processor (AuthenticAMD 686-class, 64KB L2 cache) 
  1.61 GHz
  cpu0: 
  FPU,V86,DE,PSE,TSC,MSR,PAE,MCE,CX8,SEP,MTRR,PGE,MCA,CMOV,PAT,PSE36,MMX,FXSR,SSE
 
 No idea why, but I've seen a number of AMD systems of that
 vintage which were temperamental about their RAM.  Wasn't that
 the RAM was bad...but the system bus timing was off in some
 way.
 
 Curiously, these machines had more-than-usual amounts of clock
 speed control, and they seemed to settle down by cranking down
 the clock speed a tad.  You won't miss it, really.

I have set the front side bus to be 200, instead of 266 and
am re-running the memory tests.

 ...
  rl0 at pci0 dev 10 function 0 Realtek 8139 rev 0x10: irq 12, address 
  00:e0:06:f6:bf:3e

 ...
 
 That looks bad.  IRQ12 is used by mouse hardware...

No mouse plugged in or used.  Never will be.

 PS a dmesg would be useful...

Sorry!  I forgot the dmesg.
