Description of problem: jabberd does not work - it starts up fine, but after a successful authentication it tries to use its backend storage engine, at which point sm dies and the client is kicked from jabberd Running sm in the foreground, it crashes with: sm: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/jabberd/storage_db.so: undefined symbol: ser_string_get -bash-4.0$ ldd /usr/lib/jabberd/storage_db.so linux-gate.so.1 => (0x00958000) libdb-4.7.so => /lib/libdb-4.7.so (0x00474000) libpam.so.0 => /lib/libpam.so.0 (0x001b3000) libssl.so.8 => /usr/lib/libssl.so.8 (0x00da3000) libcrypto.so.8 => /usr/lib/libcrypto.so.8 (0x0029c000) libgsasl.so.7 => /usr/lib/libgsasl.so.7 (0x00df2000) libudns.so.0 => /usr/lib/libudns.so.0 (0x00f58000) libidn.so.11 => /lib/libidn.so.11 (0x00842000) libexpat.so.1 => /lib/libexpat.so.1 (0x007ee000) libresolv.so.2 => /lib/libresolv.so.2 (0x00110000) libgc.so.1 => /usr/lib/libgc.so.1 (0x00ad7000) libz.so.1 => /lib/libz.so.1 (0x0045a000) libc.so.6 => /lib/libc.so.6 (0x005e2000) libpthread.so.0 => /lib/libpthread.so.0 (0x00fa8000) libaudit.so.0 => /lib/libaudit.so.0 (0x00129000) libdl.so.2 => /lib/libdl.so.2 (0x00143000) libgssapi_krb5.so.2 => /usr/lib/libgssapi_krb5.so.2 (0x00ea4000) libkrb5.so.3 => /usr/lib/libkrb5.so.3 (0x00873000) libcom_err.so.2 => /lib/libcom_err.so.2 (0x009b3000) libk5crypto.so.3 => /usr/lib/libk5crypto.so.3 (0x00933000) libntlm.so.0 => /usr/lib/libntlm.so.0 (0x00d14000) libgcc_s.so.1 => /lib/libgcc_s.so.1 (0x00221000) /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x001f3000) libkrb5support.so.0 => /usr/lib/libkrb5support.so.0 (0x0090f000) libkeyutils.so.1 => /lib/libkeyutils.so.1 (0x00148000) libselinux.so.1 => /lib/libselinux.so.1 (0x0014b000) Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): jabberd-2.2.7.1-2.fc11.i586 How reproducible: Set up a jabberd server (in my case copying exactly from F10). After successful auth the sm module will crash and jabberd will not function Steps to Reproduce: 1. service jabberd start 2. <log in from a different machine> 3. Notice "Read Error / Host Gone" on other machine, and that sm daemon has died Actual results: dead subsystem Expected results: XMPP works Additional info: a quick google found what is probably the same problem: https://bugs.launchpad.net/jabberd2/+bug/345947 http://osdir.com/ml/debian-bugs-dist/2009-04/msg07381.html It probably is fixed by a newer upstream (2.2.9)
The same bug has been submitted for the EL-5 branch (#508182) (and I want to know there if a rebuild fixes it). I have a new version for F-11 available at #497671. Can you try 2.2.8-2.fc11 from updates-testing to see if it works.
It does work with that update - I have connected successfully and it's talking to the XMPP world just fine. It hadn't hit updates-testing yet so I just nabbed the version from koji. Thanks a ton!
This message is a reminder that Fedora 11 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 11. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '11'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 11's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 11 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this bug to the applicable version. If you are unable to change the version, please add a comment here and someone will do it for you. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping
Fedora 11 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2010-06-25. Fedora 11 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
