Title: EIB segmentation fault
Post by: brononius on December 14, 2015, 01:11:00 pm
Hey,

Just did some apt-get upgrades, rebooted my server, and my EIB won't start anymore.  :-[
I'm getting a segmentation fault.

Code: [Select]
dcerouter_1044981:/# /usr/bin/eibd -D -T -R -S -i -u --daemon=/var/log/eibd.log ipt:192.168.111.21
   Segmentation fault (core dumped)

Any idea what i'm doing wrong, or what can be done to troubleshoot this?



ps the IP is correct, my core is 192.168.111.1.

Forget to mention that some packages were skipped during upgrade. No idea if it's linked with it.

Holy crap, someone besides posde is using eibd?

The upgrade problems are one issue, the eibd is another.  You didn't mention (and this is *very* important) but I'm going to assume you're on 1404.  We identified an issue with eibd server this weekend, we have no idea what is causing it at the moment.  eibd is working perfectly in 1204 but not in any of the current 1404 builds.  You can install the .deb from the 1204 repo or one from the mkoegler ppa for now.

The upgrade failures are rather strange, they hint at two things.  1. it looks like you had internet errors during the upgrade, I'm really not sure 2. it looks like you're missing files from the installation, specifically from boot-scripts.

Post by: brononius on December 14, 2015, 02:28:54 pm
Are there alternatives for eibd?
I don't know any other way how to contact the IP-router of my knx installation.  :$

I'm trying to find out how I can install it directly from kroegler, but I'm always getting the info that i'm already on the latest version. :$

They're already at home complaining that some functions aren't working regarding the ligths and so (you only miss what you've got when it's not there)...


ps see my signature for the version... ;)





Title: Re: EIB segmentation fault
Post by: phenigma on December 14, 2015, 02:30:30 pm
I know of no other way to connect to knx.

apt-get install <pkgname>=<pkgversion>

will install an old version of a pkg.

Post by: phenigma on December 14, 2015, 02:31:12 pm
Was this working on 1404 for you previously?  If so, do you know the version number of the eibd-server pkg that was working?  0.0.4 or 0.0.5?

Installing the deb package worked to downgrade:
Code: [Select]
      wget https://www.auto.tuwien.ac.at/~mkoegler/debian/pool/main/b/bcusdk/bcusdk_0.0.4_all.deb
      dpkg -i bcusdk_0.0.4_all.deb

But gives me the same error:
Code: [Select]

Try 0.0.5 from mkoegler, that is working for posde on 1404 i386.

J.
Title: Re: EIB segmentation fault
Post by: brononius on December 14, 2015, 02:59:59 pm
It was alread the 0.0.5 (what I did before):
Code: [Select]
https://www.auto.tuwien.ac.at/~mkoegler/debian/pool/main/b/bcusdk/bcusdk_0.0.5_all.deb
dpkg -i bcusdk_0.0.5_all.deb

but after installing the libpthsem20 2.0.8, it started to start without error?
Code: [Select]
wget https://www.auto.tuwien.ac.at/~mkoegler/debian/pool/main/p/pthsem/libpthsem20_2.0.8_i386.deb
dpkg -i libpthsem20_2.0.8_i386.deb


Code: [Select]
/usr/bin/eibd -D -R -S -i -u --daemon=/var/log/eibd.log ipt:192.168.111.21
ps -ef | grep eibd
      root     19594     1  0 14:50 ?        00:00:00 /usr/bin/eibd -D -R -S -i -u --daemon=/var/log/eibd.log ipt:192.168.111.21
      root     26480     1  0 14:22 ?        00:00:00 /usr/bin/SCREEN -d -m -S KNX_via_eibd99 /usr/pluto/bin/Spawn_Device.sh 99

So I guess it working now fine for me.
Thanks!!!

If I can test/do something to help, let me know!

Each time I perform an apt upgrade, i'm having the same issue.  :-[

I can "solve" it with:
Code: [Select]
wget https://www.auto.tuwien.ac.at/~mkoegler/debian/pool/main/p/pthsem/libpthsem20_2.0.8_i386.deb
dpkg -i libpthsem20_2.0.8_i386.deb

I've tried to follow the things that posde did, but I haven't got /etc/apt/preferences.
And when i run the apt reinstall, I'm getting the error
Quote
WARNING: The following packages cannot be authenticated!
  eibd-client-sources eibd-clients eibd-server libeibclient-dev libeibclient0
Authentication warning overridden.
E: Internal Error, No file name for lmce-eib-eibd:i386

When i do the apt-get update command, i'm getting

E: Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old ones used instead.


ps I'm also getting other issues with the global apt-get upgrade. Not sure if it's related, but I mention it here, just in case... (forum-topic (http://forum.linuxmce.org/index.php?topic=14293.0))

You apt database looks a bit screwed.

This is my list of installed packages re EIB and pth.

Code: [Select]
http://paste.ubuntu.com/14574533/
http://paste.ubuntu.com/14574534/

This is where I got my pthsem lib from:

Code: [Select]
http://paste.ubuntu.com/14574542/

I used to have the stuff from mkoegler as well, but for quite some time now, we are building the libs ourselves.

Does the above help?
Title: Re: EIB segmentation fault
Post by: phenigma on January 19, 2016, 02:54:19 pm
mkoegler does not have a repo for trusty, which is why the ppa presents a 404.  The bcusdk packages are no longer actually maintained.

The /etc/apt/preferences file does not exist, it must be created if you wish to use it.

In the inital setup, i've installed eibd manually to get it running.
But I believe now that that was a mistake.  :-[

Is it a good idea to remove all eibd things of kroegler.
And then use the plugin of lmce?


Any suggestion what the proper workflow is for this?
Simple remove eibd stuff by apt-get, and install lmce-eib-eibd by apt-get?

Change line 50 from

to

apt-get -f install

and it should work again.

One step closer for a clean apt-get process.
One step further away for my home automation.
LinuxMCE doesn't play anymore with my lights. :$

I still can activate things with the 'groupswrite' command.
But not by theLinuxMCE GUI anymore.

I can see a lot of refused connection in /var/log/Launchmanager.log, guess it has to do with eib?

Title: Re: EIB segmentation fault
Post by: brononius on January 21, 2016, 03:52:40 pm
hmmm, seems that with the updates (eib, dist-upgrade...), something changed for /etc/pluto.conf?

I've changed the line PK_Device = 285 to PK_Device = 1.
1 was the original number from my backup of yesterday.
Following, I've restarted linuxmce, and he started to rebuild everything.

And for now, it seems to work.

Title: Re: EIB segmentation fault
Post by: phenigma on January 21, 2016, 04:16:30 pm
Um.  Now I'm curious.  What did you do to cause pluto.conf to be re-written with PK_Device=285?  It should set that based on the Core Device and nothing else.

J.
Title: Re: EIB segmentation fault
Post by: brononius on January 21, 2016, 05:17:55 pm
I've done a lot (except rebooting in timeto know when it started to fail)...

Main changes of last days:
   apt-get upgrades
   apt-get dist-upgrade
   dpkg -i libpthsem20_2.0.8_i386.deb
   apt-get remove bcudsk (and some reinstalls)
   apt-get install linuxmce-eib-eibd
   played around with the eggtimer
   Tried the qorbiter (and removed it), this was device ID 284

But I never touched the /etc/pluto.conf file.
I had some mayor issues after the dist-upgrade (?), my second network card didn't came up after the reboot.
I'm using VMWare, and in /etc/network/interfaces, I had 2 times an eth1? With default ip 192.168.80.1 and my real ip 192.168.111.1. After removing the 80 with 111, ubuntu started to boot properly.

When I check the database, the ID285 is assigned to CORE, template 7, with the internal IP.

When I check the database, the ID285 is assigned to CORE, template 7, with the internal IP.

That is very, very wrong.  Your core device should be #1.  If it has added another then something went very wrong at some point.  Best I can figure is that somehow portions of firstboot were re-run.

Is it save to say that the system didn't start as a 1404 system but got upgraded from a different version?
