The following issue has been CLOSED ====================================================================== http://bugs.bacula.org/view.php?id=1419 ====================================================================== Reported By: joerg Assigned To: ====================================================================== Project: bacula Issue ID: 1419 Category: Director Reproducibility: always Severity: major Priority: normal Status: closed Resolution: reopened Fixed in Version: ====================================================================== Date Submitted: 2009-11-14 21:03 UTC Last Modified: 2009-11-27 13:59 UTC ====================================================================== Summary: Director spins if mail delivery fails Description: I am using a slightly reduced example configuration, storing the files to disk. After the backup is done, bsmtp tries to submit the report mail to port 25 and fails (postfix default config w/o open network socket). After that the director process will consume 100% cpu time without actually issues new system calls. ====================================================================== ---------------------------------------------------------------------- (0004814) Dan Langille (manager) - 2009-11-14 21:14 http://bugs.bacula.org/view.php?id=1419#c4814 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- It would help if you supplied your configuration. But this really sounds like a configuration issue. If you haven't contacted the user mailing list, I suggest doing so to resolve this issue, at least in the short term. I suspect your messages section isn't configured to use bsmtp correctly. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- (0004822) xavier (reporter) - 2009-11-19 09:38 http://bugs.bacula.org/view.php?id=1419#c4822 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- In support to this report: My installation is new (bacula 3.0.3 on Centos 5.4). I had a problem where for some unknown reasons, the nightly jobs would stall after a while every night. The director would behave strangely (no response to status requests or requests to cancel jobs, etc...). I could not find any consistent reasons for this and was looking into a potential issue of a deadlock when running concurrent jobs. This post however gave me the idea to look elsewhere and for the first time this morning I can confirm that all my jobs have completed ok! All the jobs were configured to send me an email on success or failure as each job was completed. The "stalling" would occur on the backup of our mail server (no mail server, no way to send bsmtp messages...). So to get it to work I reconfigured my Standard section not to send any emails! ---------------------------------------------------------------------- (0004829) ebollengier (administrator) - 2009-11-27 08:18 http://bugs.bacula.org/view.php?id=1419#c4829 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The messages-test test from the regress suite use this configuration and doesn't have this problem. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- (0004830) joerg (reporter) - 2009-11-27 13:08 http://bugs.bacula.org/view.php?id=1419#c4830 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The config is attached. The critical point is that no mail server is listening on port 25. The problem is 100% reproducable by simply stopping postfix. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- (0004831) ebollengier (administrator) - 2009-11-27 13:59 http://bugs.bacula.org/view.php?id=1419#c4831 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- On my linux box i have: 27-Nov 14:54 zog4-dir JobId 5: message.c:485 Mail prog: bsmtp: bsmtp.c:442 Fatal connect error to localhost: ERR=Connection refused Let this issue closed until you propose a fix or a regression script that reproduces the problem. Keep in mind that it could be a specific NetBSD problem that doesn't exist on other systems.
