Hi team,

 

Pulseway client from my Fedore machine stopped working this mordning out of the blue.

I made a clean install, but it didn't help.

 

I'm getting a strage message in /var/log/messages when I strat the clinet

 

systemd[1]: pulseway.service: main process exited, code=killed, status=4

 

...and the service status looks like this:

 

pulseway.service - LSB: start and stop pulsewayd
          Loaded: loaded (/etc/rc.d/init.d/pulseway)
          Active: active (exited) since Mon, 13 Oct 2014 16:33:34 +0300; 39min ago
        Main PID: 2984 (code=killed, signal=ILL)
          CGroup: name=systemd:/system/pulseway.service

 

Basically I did no change on my system. I just received a notification that my machine is offline and from that point the pulseway didn't want to start anymore.

 

Thanks,

Bogdan

Hi,

 

What version of Fedora are you using? (uname -a; cat /etc/issue; openssl version).

Can you see any errors/crash in logs? (journalctl -f)

 

Regards,

Mark

Mark,

I'm using FC16 - 3.1.0-7.fc16.i686.PAE #1 SMP Tue Nov 1 20:53:45 UTC 2011 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux

OpenSSL 1.0.0e-fips 6 Sep 2011

The only errrors/crashes from logs are these (in /var/log/messages):

 

When I start pulseway:

Oct 14 09:43:54 xxxxx pulseway: Configuration read successfully!
Oct 14 09:43:54 xxxxx pulseway[4672]: Starting pulseway daemon: [  OK  ]
Oct 14 09:43:56 xxxxx pulseway: Got exception signal: 4
Oct 14 09:43:56 xxxxx systemd[1]: pulseway.service: main process exited, code=killed, status=4

 

When I stop it:

Oct 14 09:55:48 xxxxx pulseway[4791]: Stopping pulseway daemon: [FAILED]
Oct 14 09:55:48 xxxxx systemd[1]: Unit pulseway.service entered failed state.

 

Thant's all I can find.

 

Thanks,

Bogdan

Hi,

 

Can you, please, download and install this version:

 

https://www.dropbox.com/s/s9nhiiglttznlyu/pulseway-4.5.4-2.i386.rpm?dl=0

 

Let us know if that fix your issue.

 

Regards,

Mark

It didn't change anything. I'm having the same issue

 

Thanks,

Bogdan

I'll get a vanilla FC16 and try to replicate your issue.

Can you, please PM you config.xml after you remove username/password.

 

Thanks!

Mark

Thanks Mark. I sent you the file.

Looking forward to hear news from you...

Works here using your config:

 

[root@localhost pulseway]# /etc/init.d/pulseway status

pulseway.service - LSB: start and stop pulsewayd

 Loaded: loaded (/etc/rc.d/init.d/pulseway)

 Active: active (running) since Tue, 14 Oct 2014 02:49:41 -0700; 7s ago

Process: 1126 ExecStop=/etc/rc.d/init.d/pulseway stop (code=exited, status=0/SUCCESS)

Process: 1146 ExecStart=/etc/rc.d/init.d/pulseway start (code=exited, status=0/SUCCESS)

 CGroup: name=systemd:/system/pulseway.service

  1152 /usr/sbin/pulsewayd

 

I'll use credential from config.xml that you send it to me and I'll start my FC16 test machine and let me know if you can see it online.

Yes, it works. I can see two new machines - one offline and one online.

 

So, what might cause the problem on my machine ?

So, your config against a vanilla FC16 works. Them must be something local then.

Have you installed recently any software that changed core libs? Or any system updates?

 

Mark

Nope. Nothing like this.

I agree with you, it works on FC16, as it worked on my machine for months...

I will dig deeper and let you know if I find something.

Anyway, any other suggestion is welcome from anyone...
