Gamin has stopped working

mkaito · 2012-07-03 14:17:23

As far as I gather, this is an obscure issue. Basically, courier-imap gets killed with a SIGALRM when trying to connect to the gamin server. You can read more here.

The suggested workaround seems to be to switch to fam, which I haven't been able to pull off. Courier-imap seems to have a hard coded dependency on gamin and refuses to work with fam, which is reasonable considering that fam is deprecated. Gamin itself hasn't been updated in a while, and seeing this issue started cropping up just a few weeks ago on my server, I don't think gamin itself is at fault. Blame me for bad book keeping, but I can't remember for the life of me what was updated the day it started happening. I should have kept a log of it.

Back to the issue itself, authdaemon correctly authenticates my user, and then imapd gets killed after 15 seconds by the kernel with a SIGALRM on a connect call to

connect(3, {sa_family=AF_FILE, sun_path=@"/tmp/fam-chris-"}, 110) = ? ERESTARTSYS (To be restarted if SA_RESTART is set)

I've tried disabling extended idle functionality in courier, in hopes it would simply ignore gamin, but that was not the case. Either way, I'm out of options, and out of ideas. Any light you could shed on this will be greatly appreciated.

Here is the full output of strace upon calling imapd manually.

Hi,

I can't help with your courier-imap gamin issue directly, but I can at least point you to the log of what was updated when. Look at the file /var/log/pacman.log. If you know what day the update occurred, then that file will tell you what packages were updated on that day. Downgrading the relevant packages may workaround the issue.

That's pretty cool, I didn't know about that one. There were a lot of packages in that upgrade; it had been a while since the last one. The relevant section of pacman.log, below, in case anyone sees a relevant package. There was a kernel upgrade... maybe that's something?

[2012-04-28 00:28] ===> Important Fontconfig configuration change <===
[2012-04-28 00:28] 
[2012-04-28 00:28]   The way fontconfig is configured has been changed. 
[2012-04-28 00:28]   Configuration is done via /etc/fonts/conf.avail and conf.d.
[2012-04-28 00:28]   Read /etc/fonts/conf.d/README for more information.
[2012-04-28 00:28] 
[2012-04-28 00:28]   Configuration via /etc/fonts/local.conf is still possible,
[2012-04-28 00:28]   but is no longer recommended for options available in conf.avail.
[2012-04-28 00:28]

It's glib, the update from 2.30 to 2.32. I've had gamin stop working properly in pcmanfm-0.5.2 with that update. My solution was to drop gamin and use pcmanfm's inotify backend.

For courier-imap, it should work with fam. If the pre-compiled package doesn't work, recompiling it against fam could do the trick.

It seems like I have to recompile a handful of packages. I wonder if it would be better to just switch away from courier instead...

EDIT: I can't seem to find anything on google pertaining an issue between gamin and glib, but I don't think this is a new issue. I wonder what's wrong.

... and it started working again, out of the blue. I swear I still have no idea what was wrong. I'll mark the thread solved anyway, I guess. Thanks for your input, folks

Turns out it was just a temporary "fix". After rebooting the server, things work for a couple hours, then the problem above crops up again. *sigh*
