Hi, I'm unable to get OpenOffice (version 3.2) to run as a user with a home directory in a MooseFS (version 1.6.20) mounted volume. It will display the splash screen and then exit. OpenOffice works fine for the same user with a home directory on the local disk. I suspect this has something to do with file locking or some unorthodox file handling tricks by OpenOffice. Is this a known problem? And, if so, is there a workaround? Thanks! Steve |

Hi Steven! Unfortunately we've never run OpenOffice on MooseFS... Though MooseFS doesn't support "global" file locking, it supports locking "per client" so this shouldn't be the issue (http://www.moosefs.org/moosefs-faq.html#file-locking).

We are also using Ubuntu 10.04 and would like to start migrating users from local home directories to a single MooseFS volume. But we need to get OpenOffice behaving well with MooseFS before we can continue. May I ask some details of the options used to export MooseFS from the server and the options used for mounting on the client? And you are using the Ubuntu OpenOffice package (version 3.2)? Which version of MooseFS are you using? It looks like I'm having the same problem as reported in this OpenOffice bug: http://openoffice.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=113207&historysort=new <http://openoffice.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=113207&historysort=new> strace is showing these related lines (OpenOffice appears to be truncating a file that it has just unlinked!): [pid 22207] open("/net/post/stevew/.execoooh0c2YJ", O_RDWR|O_CREAT|O_EXCL, 0600) = 25 [pid 22207] unlink("/net/post/stevew/.execoooh0c2YJ") = 0 [pid 22207] ftruncate(25, 4096) = -1 EPERM (Operation not permitted) [pid 22207] mmap2(NULL, 4096, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_SHARED, 25, 0) = 0xb3faf000 [pid 22207] mmap2(NULL, 4096, PROT_READ|PROT_EXEC, MAP_SHARED, 25, 0) = 0x459000 [pid 22207] --- SIGBUS (Bus error) @ 0 (0) --- Thanks and best regards, Steve |

We was already using GlusterFS for /home, but I had a lot of sporadic problems with file truncation and locking, ex: Firefox don't remove .lock, Thunderbird very slow when downloading new emails, Gnome gvfsd-metadata hangs on 100% cpu and corruption of desktop icons position. > May I ask some details of the options used to export MooseFS from the > server and the options used for mounting on the client?

I've followed the few steps described on the main howto, no special options are configured: Moosefs 1.6.20, 2 mfs-chunkserver on Debian Lenny x86_64 (exports as ext4 with relatime option), mfs-master on Debian Squeeze x86_64, clients are ubuntu 10.04 x86.

We see the same crash issue with MFS and OO 3.1 as described http://openoffice.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=113207&historysort=new. And as all of our servers / workstations are CentOS 5.5 and Fedora 12, it won't be an easy task to go OO 3.2. A work around is to add following lines in /usr/lib64/openoffice.org3/program/soffice: if [ -e /home3/$USER ] ; then export HOME=/home3/$USER fi Our /home3 is the original NFS mounted home directory and it could also be any other local file system directories.
