Let's see why it doesn't work for you: Please restart chrony. What is in the log files in /var/log/chrony/*.log? It still doesn't work if you use ips? e.g 194.88.212.205 IIRC chrony has problems with modules, but i can be wrong here. My kernel config: # CONFIG_RTC is not set CONFIG_GEN_RTC=y CONFIG_GEN_RTC_X=y # CONFIG_HPET is not set # CONFIG_RTC_CLASS is not set Created attachment 112920 [details] Kernel .config of the running kernel (aka /proc/config.gz) (In reply to comment #3) > I took your chrony.conf file, put it into /etc/chrony, restarted chrony and it > worked. Hm, interesting. > Let's see why it doesn't work for you: Yep, thanks. > Please restart chrony. > What is in the log files in /var/log/chrony/*.log? Nothing. That's another thing I do not understand. Why does chrony not log? alexander@blatt ~ $ ls -la /var/log/chrony/ insgesamt 12 drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 40 8. Mar 18:59 . drwxr-xr-x 10 root root 8192 11. Mar 11:12 .. -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 10.

Mar 18:59 tracking.log (Originally, those files were not chmod 0666; I changed that from 0644 to 0666, in the hope, that chrony would log if the files are surely writeable. In vain :( > It still doesn't work if you use ips? e.g 194.88.212.205 I now have only have "server" line in chrony.conf with "your" IP. alexander@blatt ~ $ chronyc sources 210 Number of sources = 0 MS Name/IP address Stratum Poll LastRx Last sample ============================================================================ > IIRC chrony has problems with modules, but i can be wrong here. > > My kernel config: > # CONFIG_RTC is not set > CONFIG_GEN_RTC=y > CONFIG_GEN_RTC_X=y > # CONFIG_HPET is not set > # CONFIG_RTC_CLASS is not set alexander@blatt ~ $ zcat /proc/config.gz | grep \\\(RTC\\\|HPET\\\) CONFIG_HPET_TIMER=y CONFIG_RTC=m CONFIG_GEN_RTC=m CONFIG_GEN_RTC_X=y CONFIG_HPET=y CONFIG_HPET_RTC_IRQ=y CONFIG_HPET_MMAP=y CONFIG_RTC_LIB=m CONFIG_RTC_CLASS=m # RTC interfaces CONFIG_RTC_INTF_SYSFS=m CONFIG_RTC_INTF_PROC=m CONFIG_RTC_INTF_DEV=m # CONFIG_RTC_INTF_DEV_UIE_EMUL is not set # RTC drivers CONFIG_RTC_DRV_DS1553=m CONFIG_RTC_DRV_DS1742=m CONFIG_RTC_DRV_M48T86=m CONFIG_RTC_DRV_TEST=m CONFIG_RTC_DRV_V3020=m (Complete config is attached) But even if it could not access the RTC, why does it not load any servers? ... I unloaded rtc and loaded genrtc module. After restarting chronyd, I now get: alexander@blatt ~ $ chronyc tracking Reference ID : 194.88.212.205 (xolotl.zooomclan.org) Stratum : 4 Ref time (UTC) : Sun Mar 11 11:46:04 2007 System time : 0.000000 seconds fast of NTP time Frequency : 131.008 ppm slow Residual freq : -0.029 ppm Skew : 5.305 ppm Root delay : 0.015198 seconds Root dispersion : 0.093109 seconds Well. User error, of sorts, I'd say. I still think, that chrony shouldn't fail to load the sources if genrtc isn't available, but that's the way it is, I guess. Closing bug. Thanks for your help, though! Thanks to you, I'm able to use chrony now. |
I'm using chrony-1.21-r1 on a x86 system. When I now run "chronyc tracking", I get: alexander@blatt ~ $ chronyc tracking Reference ID : 0.0.0.0 (0.0.0.0) Stratum : 0 Ref time (UTC) : Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 System time : 0.000000 seconds fast of NTP time Frequency : 0.000 ppm fast Residual freq : 0.000 ppm Skew : 0.000 ppm Root delay : 0.000000 seconds Root dispersion : 0.000000 seconds Also quite interesting is the output of "sources": alexander@blatt ~ $ chronyc sources 210 Number of sources = 0 MS Name/IP address Stratum Poll LastRx Last sample ============================================================================ I had a closer look at chrony, as I discovered in the morning that my system is 105 seconds fast - and it still IS fast: alexander@blatt ~ $ ntpdate -q ch.pool.ntp.org server 194.88.212.205, stratum 3, offset -105.866018, delay 0.03728 server 195.216.64.208, stratum 2, offset -105.870447, delay 0.03851 server 217.147.223.78, stratum 2, offset -105.869263, delay 0.03853 server 213.3.26.5, stratum 3, offset -105.864887, delay 0.08418 10 Mar 21:05:03 ntpdate[13878]: step time server 195.216.64.208 offset -105.870447 sec Now, as the "chronyc sources" printed "number of sources = 0", I tend to think, that the configuration file is ignored. I'll attach the chrony.conf. alexander@blatt ~ $ grep -v ^\# /etc/conf.d/chronyd | grep -v ^\$ CFGFILE="/etc/chrony/chrony.conf" ARGS="-r -s" test -c /dev/rtc && { grep -q '^rtcfile' "${CFGFILE}" && ARGS="${ARGS} -s" } grep -q '^dumponexit$' "${CFGFILE}" && ARGS="${ARGS} -r" alexander@blatt ~ $ ps awux|grep -v vim|grep -v grep|grep -v tail|grep chrony root 13997 0.0 0.1 1956 888 ? S 21:07 0:00 /usr/sbin/chronyd -f /etc/chrony/chrony.conf -r -s -s Why it, that chrony doesn't (seem to) read the configuration file - or at least seems to ignore the contents?
