I have exactly the same problem, but with redhat5.2 using
circle30bpl12, circle30bpl14 and circle30bpl15. The problem suddenly
developed over night and I've ruled out any code changes I might have
added in by using fresh stock copies of the last three patch levels.
The sysadmins say the problem lies with the code, their setup hasn't
changed at all.
I did get some information from using 'strace' so here it is:
*** start of log ***
select(4, [3], NULL, NULL, NULL) = 1 (in [3])
time(NULL) = 926379536
write(2, "May 10 19:38:56 :: ", 19) = 19
write(2, "New connection. Waking up.", 27) = 27
write(2, "\n", 1) = 1
gettimeofday({926379536, 291235}, NULL) = 0
gettimeofday({926379536, 291407}, NULL) = 0
gettimeofday({926379536, 291563}, NULL) = 0
select(0, NULL, NULL, NULL, {0, 99672}) = 0 (Timeout)
gettimeofday({926379536, 402083}, NULL) = 0
*** can't locate two files in lib ***
open("/lib/libnss_nisplus.so.1", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or
directory)
open("/usr/lib/libnss_nisplus.so.1", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file
or directory)
open("/lib/libnss_nis.so.1", O_RDONLY) = 6
*** start of infinite loop ***
time(NULL) = 926379536
gettimeofday({926379536, 442794}, NULL) = 0
gettimeofday({926379536, 442954}, NULL) = 0
select(0, NULL, NULL, NULL, {0, 48281}) = 0 (Timeout)
gettimeofday({926379536, 501972}, NULL) = 0
select(0, NULL, NULL, NULL, {21436416, 720000}) = 0 (Timeout)
gettimeofday({926379536, 502321}, NULL) = 0
select(0, NULL, NULL, NULL, {21436416, 720000}) = 0 (Timeout)
...continues ad infinitum
however I have no idea whether this is of any use as I'm way out of
my league here. I do have much more of this strace log, but it's a bit
too long to send to the list. Any help would be greatly appreciated, as
everything has gone decidedly pear-shaped.
