[mythtv-users] MythSocket errors, backend unresponsive

[Khanh Tran]

somewhere around r25084 (I'm running from -fixes branch), I started seeing
the following errors in my master backend:

2010-08-05 19:33:37.397 MainServer, Warning: Unknown socket closing
MythSocket(0xffffffffa9634c38)
2010-08-05 19:33:37.401 MythSocket(ffffffffa9634c38:-1): writeStringList:
Error, socket went unconnected.
                        We wrote 0 of 10 bytes with 1 errors

The backend process doesn't segfault, but nothing can connect or use it
either.  Sometimes, I get the following errors in the frontend logs:

2010-08-05 19:00:46.554 MythSocket(ffffffffb3a6bd10:35): readStringList:
Error, timed out after 30000 ms.
2010-08-05 19:00:46.554 Connection to backend server lost
2010-08-05 19:00:46.554 MythContext: Connecting to backend server:
192.168.1.3:6543 (try 1 of 1)
2010-08-05 19:00:53.554 MythSocket(ffffffffa4b00c98:35): readStringList:
Error, timed out after 7000 ms.
2010-08-05 19:00:53.554 Protocol version check failure.
                        The response to MYTH_PROTO_VERSION was empty.
                        This happens when the backend is too busy to
respond,
                        or has deadlocked in due to bugs or hardware
failure.
2010-08-05 19:00:53.554 Reconnection to backend server failed

Anyone else experiencing this?  Have a workaround or fix?
