[Bug 458995] Re: [karmic] Trackerd goes into infinite loop indexing .xsession-errors
Ok, happened again. Trackerd is now at 100% CPU: 1889 romano36 16 61164 15m 4188 R 100 0.4 45:12.05 trackerd Two hours ago, after a change in a file made by my local dovecot server, decided to go into pause mode but using 100% CPU. The last messages on the log where: 22 Sep 2010, 14:48:27: Tracker: Received monitor event:8-'IN_CLOSE_WRITE | IN_C LOSE*' for file:'/home/romano/lib/Mail/VRISCU' (cookie:0) 22 Sep 2010, 14:48:29: Tracker: We are paused, sending nothing to the index unti l we are unpaused 22 Sep 2010, 14:48:31: Tracker: We are paused, sending nothing to the index unti l we are unpaused Notice, I was not even seated at the PC. It went to pause mode alone. The log message is repeated every 2 seconds (why?). If I right click on the applet, the pause all indexing is unticked. I ticked it: 22 Sep 2010, 15:30:53: Tracker: We are paused, sending nothing to the index unti l we are unpaused 22 Sep 2010, 15:30:54: Tracker: --- [123] DBus request to set daemon boolean op tion, key:'Pause', value:true 22 Sep 2010, 15:30:54: Tracker: New DBus request, not pausing indexer, already i n paused state 22 Sep 2010, 15:30:54: Tracker: --- [123] Success, no error given Still 100% CPU, still the same message every 2 seconds. Now I untick the pause all indexing again: 22 Sep 2010, 15:32:04: Tracker: --- [124] DBus request to set daemon boolean option, key:'Pause', value:false 22 Sep 2010, 15:32:04: Tracker: New DBus request, not pausing indexer, already in paused state 22 Sep 2010, 15:32:04: Tracker: --- [124] Success, no error given 22 Sep 2010, 15:32:04: Tracker: Finished crawling files in 1996.0914 seconds 22 Sep 2010, 15:32:04: Tracker: Found 1521 directories, ignored 119 directories 22 Sep 2010, 15:32:04: Tracker: Found 29729 files, ignored 613 files 22 Sep 2010, 15:32:04: Tracker: Received monitor event:4-'IN_ATTRIB' for file:'/home/romano/management/viajes/nantes10/SSSUP S.Anna.doc' (cookie:0) ...and then a lot of more data, apparently receiving all signals/events that were missed when in the nasty paused state. Now CPU utilization is normal. I can attach/send the full log if someone is interested. From past experiences, now trackerd will behave during hours/days. Then it will fall again in the bogus paused state and start using 100% CPU. At the same time, .xsession-erros has growth to unbearable size (2G +) with the message: Tracker-Message: Received monitor event:2-'IN_MODIFY' for file:'/home/romano/.xsession-errors' (cookie:0) repeated over and over.

[Bug 458995] Re: [karmic] Trackerd goes into infinite loop indexing .xsession-errors
I have a similar problem. When it happens, the tracker applet shows a ! and say paused. If I click on the applet, then choose (pause), nothing happens. Then I deselect the pause and the usage goes to almost zero, at least during a while (hours). Then it goes to 100% again. I changed the verbosity to 2.

[Bug 458995] Re: [karmic] Trackerd goes into infinite loop indexing .xsession-errors
I can confirm this bug too, after getting around bug 511015. After getting tracker to complete indexing, it seemed fine. However, after reboot I have the infinite loop, high CPU, and growing .xsession-errors symptoms. Also, the tooltip for tracker-applet says that tracker is optimizing the database, while the high CPU usage is happening. After turning off autostart for tracker, logging out and in again, and running it by hand, it is ok. Will see how it goes for awhile. It seems to be searching ok (I haven't restarted tracker from scratch). -- [karmic] Trackerd goes into infinite loop indexing .xsession-errors https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/458995 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Hard to tell for #239391, since it looks that there are multiple bugs symptoms in there, and the reports span from version 0.6.6 to 0.6.95.

Well, this is bad news. Even with the manual ignore on .xsession-errors, tracker decided some time last night to start tracking it anyways.
