Hello, Baszi. I'm having some stability issues on Solaris 8 and I'm not quite sure how to best go about resolving them. Occasionally, I will notice syslog-ng crashing, most often after receiving a UDP-based message. Running in debug mode, I see the following:
bash-2.05a# /apps/syslog-ng/current/sbin/syslog-ng -vdF -f /apps/syslog-ng/etc/syslog-ng.conf binding fd 3, inetaddr: 0.0.0.0, port: 514 io.c: Preparing fd 3 for reading io.c: connecting using fd 7 connecting fd 7 to inetaddr 10.130.230.162, port 514 io.c: connecting using fd 8 connecting fd 8 to inetaddr 10.120.230.161, port 514 syslog-ng version 1.5.17 starting io.c: Preparing fd 8 for writing io.c: Preparing fd 7 for writing io.c: Preparing fd 9 for writing io.c: sockaddr2info(): Unsupported address family 0. Abort (core dumped)
I'm building syslog-ng with gcc 3.1 on Solaris 8 with the following setup:
syslog-ng 1.5.23 libol 0.3.5 CFLAGS -m64 -O3
I'm attaching the core dump just in case. In this particular case, syslog-ng crashes as soon as spamd (from the spamassassin package) connects. The lines in spamd are something like:
if ($log_facility ne 'stderr') { eval { setlogsock('unix'); syslog('debug', 'spamd starting'); # required to actually open the socket };
Is there something in my syslog-ng configuration that may be causing issues?
no, as it seems solaris doesn't return a sensible address for unix domain socket peers. btw: solaris does not usually use unix domain sockets for log transport, what driver do you use for /dev/log? (usually it is a STREAMS device) this patch should fix it (touch io.c.x after applying): diff -u -r1.31 io.c --- io.c 14 Oct 2002 08:05:38 -0000 1.31 +++ io.c 12 Nov 2002 07:40:01 -0000 @@ -1024,13 +1024,17 @@ struct sockaddr_un *un = (struct sockaddr_un *) addr; return &make_unix_address(c_format("%z", un->sun_path))->super; } + case AF_UNSPEC: + break; #if 0 case AF_INETv6: break; #endif default: - fatal("io.c: sockaddr2info(): Unsupported address family %i.\n", addr->sa_family); + werror("io.c: sockaddr2info(): Unsupported address family %i (addrlen=%i).\n", addr->sa_family, addr_len); + break; } + return NULL; } #if 0 -- Bazsi PGP info: KeyID 9AF8D0A9 Fingerprint CD27 CFB0 802C 0944 9CFD 804E C82C 8EB1
