Bug 71932 – Posadis 0.60.2 stops answering after first query (thread issue?)

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Description Bruno 2004-11-21 04:21:59 UTC]

When running Posadis DNS server only my first query to it gets a response (and is logged in posadis logfile).

Running the server in interactive mode produes the same results. Posadis takes very long to stop on "CTRL+C" waiting for it's threads to terminate, and finally quit with message that some threads did NOT terminate and were killed.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Run posadis DNS-server (either init script or interactive on console)
2. Query the server with dig or poshost for a name in a domain posadis is master of. (response is fine)
3. Query the server again (any host) => no response
Actual Results:  
No response, need to kill the process "kill -kill pid" to make it terminate. 

Expected Results:  
Server responds to all requests for the domains it's a master of

Please try posadis-0.60.5-r1.
If it works, it will be marked as stable.

[Comment 2 Bruno 2004-12-15 11:46:01 UTC]

The init script for the new stable version of Posadis (0.60.5-r1) should be run only after famd has started as otherwise Posadis may complain about famd not running (if config is using fam-monitoring of file-changes for it's zone files).

This means that in the "depends" function of init script a line "after famd" should be added!
