RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description Jakub Hrozek 2015-11-05 19:53:44 UTC
+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #1269232 +++

Description of problem:

Since sssd 1.13 has been crashing, downgrading to 1.12, seems to solve the problem. 

I get the following trace:

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

sssd-1.13.0-7.fc23.x86_64

How reproducible:

Config sssd with something like this:

[sssd]
config_file_version = 2
reconnection_retries = 3
sbus_timeout = 30
services = nss, pam, autofs
domains = default

[nss]
filter_groups = root
filter_users = root
reconnection_retries = 3

[pam]
reconnection_retries = 3
[domain/default]
auth_provider = ldap
ldap_tls_reqcert = never
ldap_id_use_start_tls = True
cache_credentials = True
ldap_search_base = dc=foo,dc=bar
krb5_realm = EXAMPLE.COM
chpass_provider = ldap
id_provider = ldap
use_fully_qualified_names = False
store_legacy_passwords = False
debug_level = 0
min_id = 100
ldap_uri = ldap://example.com
enumerate = True
autofs_provider = ldap

ldap_tls_cacertdir = /etc/openldap/cacerts
[autofs]

and enable sssd in authconfig.

Start sssd service and wait for crash.

Can you please also upload the logs and the corefile?

--- Additional comment from Terje Røsten on 2015-10-06 14:44:36 EDT ---

where do I find the core file? 

Anything I need to config to get core file from sssd?

--- Additional comment from Jakub Hrozek on 2015-10-06 15:13:37 EDT ---

abrt should help you with that, abrt-cli might print where the corefiles are. Normally they're at /var/spool/abrt/ IIRC.

But since we switched to calling setuid and drop privileges, the corefiles might not be generated automatically. In that case, you can attach gdb as described here:
https://fedorahosted.org/sssd/wiki/Reporting_sssd_bugs

How to get debug files is described here:
https://fedorahosted.org/sssd/wiki/Troubleshooting

--- Additional comment from Terje Røsten on 2015-10-06 15:21:48 EDT ---

Thanks, I have removed all abrt* packages any way, let me see what I can out from gdb.

(In reply to Terje Røsten from comment #4)

You should be able t obtain coredump even without abrt.
You might take a look into coredumpctl[1]. If you didn't change core_pattern manually.

[root@host ~]# cat /proc/sys/kernel/core_pattern
|/usr/lib/systemd/systemd-coredump %p %u %g %s %t %e

[1] http://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/coredumpctl.html

If you are able to reproduce crash. We might also try to run sssd with valgrind.

--- Additional comment from Jakub Hrozek on 2015-10-08 16:58:34 EDT ---

In general Terje, please let us know if we can help reproduce the issue or get the core file!

--- Additional comment from Jakub Hrozek on 2015-10-14 10:01:09 EDT ---

ping?

Can we help you get the debug information?

--- Additional comment from Lukas Slebodnik on 2015-10-30 16:45:39 EDT ---

It seems to be related to your locales.
I was able to reproduce with setting locales to "norwegian" 

So the workaround is to add line "LANG=C" to the /etc/sysconfig/sssd.

--- Additional comment from Terje Røsten on 2015-10-31 04:55:27 EDT ---

So far so good, thanks guys!

Comment 5 Jakub Hrozek 2015-11-06 20:17:22 UTC
I did some more investigation today and I don't think it's as severe as we initially thought. This bug doesn't happen with any non-English locale, but only with those that are non-UTF-8.

The root cause is that we transfer diagnostic messages over sbus and if the message is not UTF-8, dbus aborts.

Comment 6 Jakub Hrozek 2015-11-06 20:26:21 UTC
patch is on review btw.
