[Bug 1549644] Re: libc6-udeb resolver segfaults when resolving local addresses with no domain
*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 1546459 *** https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1546459 I am pretty sure this is a duplicate of #1546459 . Downloading a new netinstall from trusty-updates (not trusty) seems to fix the problem. In particular I used the following: open http://ca.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/trusty-updates/main /installer-amd64/current/images/netboot/ubuntu-installer/ I had not realized that there was a new version of the installer because I was looking in the wrong directory. ** This bug has been marked a duplicate of bug 1546459 segfault at b774bd9d ip b7352a0d sp bfda8f30 error 7 in libresolv-2.19.so[b7349000+13000] -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1549644 Title: libc6-udeb resolver segfaults when resolving local addresses with no domain To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/anna/+bug/1549644/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 1549644] [NEW] libc6-udeb resolver segfaults when resolving local addresses with no domain
Public bug reported: I do not know whether this bug belongs to debian-installer, anna or libc6-udeb, so I will follow Launchpad's suggestion. I install machines using preseeding, with a local apt-cacher-ng proxy called "apt-cache". In this case I am installing Ubuntu 14.04 . I install both on i386 and amd64 architectures, and am getting the same results. When installing I get the message that the installer failed to download a file from the mirror, during the bootstrap installer download. It always fails at the same point: when downloading libcryptsetup4-udeb, immediately after downloading libc6-udeb_2.19-0ubuntu6.7_amd64.udeb. Switching to one of the consoles, I find that name resolutions are failing for addresses on my local network when I do not specify a fully- qualified domain name, but succeeding for addresses where the domain is specified. Here is an example: ~ # ping apt-cache Segmentation fault ~ # ping apt-cache.theworkingcentre.org PING apt-cache.theworkingcentre.org (10.11.12.26): 56 data bytes In syslog I see the following suspicious entries: Feb 25 05:46:45 anna[3577]: DEBUG: retrieving jfsutils-udeb 1.1.15-2.1 Feb 25 05:46:45 anna[3577]: 2016-02-25 05:46:45 URL:http://apt-cache:3142/ca.archi ve.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/j/jfsutils/jfsutils-udeb_1.1.15-2.1_amd64.udeb [162 150/162150] -> "/var/cache/anna/jfsutils-udeb_1.1.15-2.1_amd64.udeb" [1] Feb 25 05:46:45 anna[3577]: DEBUG: retrieving libbsd0-udeb 0.6.0-2ubuntu1 Feb 25 05:46:45 anna[3577]: 2016-02-25 05:46:45 URL:http://apt-cache:3142/ca.archi ve.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/libb/libbsd/libbsd0-udeb_0.6.0-2ubuntu1_amd64.udeb [24916/24916] -> "/var/cache/anna/libbsd0-udeb_0.6.0-2ubuntu1_amd64.udeb" [1] Feb 25 05:46:45 anna[3577]: DEBUG: retrieving libc6-udeb 2.19-0ubuntu6.7 Feb 25 05:46:46 anna[3577]: 2016-02-25 05:46:46 URL:http://apt-cache:3142/ca.archi ve.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/e/eglibc/libc6-udeb_2.19-0ubuntu6.7_amd64.udeb [111 8088/1118088] -> "/var/cache/anna/libc6-udeb_2.19-0ubuntu6.7_amd64.udeb" [1] Feb 25 05:46:47 anna[3577]: DEBUG: retrieving libcryptsetup4-udeb 2:1.6.1-1ubuntu1 Feb 25 05:46:47 anna[3577]: Segmentation fault Feb 25 05:46:47 kernel: [ 45.546051] wget[4856]: segfault at 14 ip 7fe0079d5 d66 sp 7fffb3a959a0 error 6 in libresolv-2.19.so[7fe0079ca000+17000] Feb 25 05:46:47 anna[3577]: Segmentation fault The "libresolv-2.19.so" makes me think that this problem might have something to do with the security update to glibc, but I have no proof of this. I do know that the installers worked before. If I change my preseed entries for the local cache to fully-qualified domain names then the installer works. If I specify an IP address for the apt-cacher-ng machine then the installer works. This happens consistently for me, on several different pieces of hardware. I will attach my syslog and dmesg output. If there are other files I should include, or there is a more effective way to run apport or ubuntu-bug or something this early in the install process, let me know. ** Affects: anna (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Attachment added: "/var/log/syslog from affected system" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1549644/+attachment/4580607/+files/syslog -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1549644 Title: libc6-udeb resolver segfaults when resolving local addresses with no domain To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/anna/+bug/1549644/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 659632] Re: netinstall refuses to use local mirror
I ran into the following today too. Looking at the debian installer source (http://wiki.debian.org/DebianInstaller/CheckOut) it looks like support for the enter information manually strings have been removed in favour of manual . So the example from William at response #8 should be: d-i mirror/country string manual d-i mirror/http/countries string manual d-i mirror/http/hostname string yourmirror-here.org d-i mirror/http/mirror string yourmirror-here.org d-i mirror/http/directory string /ubuntu d-i mirror/suite string natty d-i mirror/http/proxy string And Christian Orth (#9) would not work because the string should be manual and not manual de. I am attaching the contents of git show bb1bdcaa4eecfc47b69420c0687eb3c2bc8e1d01 from the source. The changelog message was: 'Drop backwards compatibility for preseeding manual mirror selection. Change was introduced in Lenny. One release is enough for backwards compatibility support.' I am guessing that there is a lot of documentation out there that needs to be changed now. ** Attachment added: bb1bdcaa4eecfc47b69420c0687eb3c2bc8e1d01.txt https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/debian-installer/+bug/659632/+attachment/3209527/+files/bb1bdcaa4eecfc47b69420c0687eb3c2bc8e1d01.txt -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/659632 Title: netinstall refuses to use local mirror To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/debian-installer/+bug/659632/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
