Output from 'strace'
Archive contains two files: ok.out & wedge.out. The first was when the ls
completed (no .kde dire) the second was when ls wedged (.kde dir present).
Would it be possible to get a ethereal trace (i.e. ethereal -o output) of this problem? |
From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.4) Gecko/20030919 Description of problem: 'ls' wedges in an NFS directory that is served up by Solaris 9.0. The first symtom of the problem was the inability to login to an pre-existing account (login would start, file system automounts, then wedge). On a brand new account you could login from 'rlogin' but not the X console. Once an attempt was made to login from the X display ('.' files/dirs created by KDE), you could no longer rlogin (or even 'ls' from another account). Same directory is fully accessable from Solaris clients. Same problem occurs on RedHat 7.1 & 8.0. I have disabled 'autofs'. When gnome is used instead of KDE, same result. The solaris file servers is a cluster, the other member is older hardware running Solaris 8.0 and it has been working for some time. The Solaris cluster is SAN based and running 'veritas'. Our current work-around is expected to be installing Solaris 8.0 on the new hardware. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): kernel-2.4.21-3.EL How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Create account with empty home directory located on a Solaris 9 File server. 2. Manually mount home directory on AWS client. 3. Login to X display with the account (KDE) Login will not complete. Multiple '.' files/directories will be created. 4. Reboot AWS client. 5. Login as another user. 'cd ~account ; ls'. ls will wedge. Leave it running or reboot. 6. Login to server (or nfs from solaris) rm -r ~account/.kde 7. The ls command on the AWS client will now complete. Actual Results: 'ls' never returns, load average continues to rise. The CPU is just idling. Additional info: I will be attaching the output from both a successfull and a failed 'strace ls'.
