[opensuse-factory] RUG more 'solid'
Hi, I'm trying to bring my 10.2 Installation up to Factory again to follow the development and start yelling when something goes wrong :-) so far, I did not see new errors (but was also not able to upgrade yet). The only thing I still see with zmd/rug is: When there are to many packages coming in (at the moment I should update ~ 1050 packages), I can almost be certain that the upgrade fails. To high the chances that the download of any single package gets a failure and kills the whole task, usually even killing zmd. Most likely that's an issue you can not see within the Novell Network, when getting the packages from a local server with high bandwidth. Unfortunately, I'm only connected with 2.5Mbps, and thus it appears a bit more likely. Is there something that could be done against this? I mean: I have nothing against a failure... but at least zmd should stay active and allow me to relkaunch a rug up (and no: as long as zypper gives me this subjective feeling of being slow, I prefer having zmd/rug running, with a sleep timer set to 60 minutes, and I don't want to hassle around with smart for the moment). Looking forward for some comments, Dominique --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org

I think this is worth a bug report. Does it really kill ZMD or ZMD just stops to respond? Stano --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org

Stano, The zmd process is still there, but seems to be irresponsive. a rug ping says it's dead. I did not check this time what rczmd status gives me. I'll recreate the failure this evening and post a bug report afterwards.

Stano,
The zmd process is still there, but seems to be irresponsive.
Then it's probably related to other lockups we see in ZMD. They are time-depenent (i.e. hard to debug). But anyway, it's a bug and rather severe one.

Make sure you attach /var/log/zmd-* Thanks! Stano --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org
