Hi all,
I've searched the achive of this list but haven't found mention of the
problem that I'm seeing:
Our new installation of Witango 5.0.1.065 is giving us trouble on a
RedHat 9 box.
The symptom:
the witango daemon (witangod) starts up and serves requests, but after
about 5 minutes it just freezes. The tango client eventually times out
(after a few minutes) and displays this message:
Client/Plug-in Error
The client encountered problems in communicating with the application
server. Please check witangoevents.log for further information.
The witangoevents.log doesn't have anything particularly interesting in
it. The last lines look like this:
[10742] 2004-02-02 17:08:20 START INFO Oracle Call Interface (OCI):

[10742] 2004-02-02 17:08:22 RUNTIME INFO Started accepting user
requests
We're using an apache2 built from source. Have tried the recommended
version 2.0.46 as well as the current release (2.0.48). We're seeing
the same problem with both versions of apache.
An strace of the catatonic witangod process shows me this sort of thing
over and over:
gettimeofday({1075922257, 962880}, NULL) = 0
gettimeofday({1075922257, 963070}, NULL) = 0
futex(0x82d2964, FUTEX_WAIT, 150248, {0, 999810000}) = -1 ETIMEDOUT (Connection
timed out)
gettimeofday({1075922258, 972906}, NULL) = 0
gettimeofday({1075922258, 973101}, NULL) = 0
futex(0x82d2964, FUTEX_WAIT, 150249, {0, 999805000}) = -1 ETIMEDOUT (Connection
timed out)
Although an strace of a functioning witangod process looks much the
same. I think that just tells me that strace isn't seeing witangod's
threads very well.
Restarting the witango daemon fixes the problem for another 5 minutes or
so.
Anyone else out there seen this sort of problem?
Ben
