Description michal novacek 2017-05-16 08:43:52 UTC

Description of problem:
Removing configuration files in /etc/gssproxy/ directory causes 'systemctl start gssproxy' to segfault.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
gssproxy-0.7.0-3.el7.x86_64
kernel-3.10.0-666.el7.x86_64

How reproducible: always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. remove files in /etc/gssproxy/
2. systemctl start gssproxy

Actual results: segfault, gssproxy not started

Expected results: gssproxy started


Additional info:
May 16 04:40:44 pool-10-34-69-57 kernel: gssproxy[11833]: segfault at 10102be ip 00007fa39315a4dc sp 00007ffe310936b8 error 4 in libc-2.17.so[7fa3930da000+1b8000]

Comment 2 Robbie Harwood 2017-05-16 18:19:02 UTC

We're not going to start without a config file, especially when the distribution ships one by default.  We shouldn't segfault, though.

Comment 3 Robbie Harwood 2017-05-16 22:45:24 UTC

Fix applied to fedora in gssproxy >= 0.7.0-6.

Comment 5 Mohammad Rizwan 2018-01-10 09:24:37 UTC

version:
gssproxy-0.7.0-17.el7.x86_64
kernel-3.10.0-828.el7.x86_64

Steps:

1. mv /etc/gssproxy/* /tmp/gssproxy/
2. systemctl start gssproxy
3. systemctl status gssproxy

Additinal steps:

4. systemctl stop gssproxy
5. systemctl start gssproxy
6. systemctl status gssproxy
7. mv /tmp/gssproxy/* /etc/gssproxy/
8. systemctl start gssproxy
9. systemctl status gssproxy

Step 5 failed to start the gssproxy. When restored the config file to /etc/gssproxy/, it started successfully.

Actual result:
