Description:Our asterisk system consists of 4 remote asterisk servers accepting calls from a MAX tnt.  The four asterisk box's relay the call to our main server.  If we shutdown down one of the remote asterisk servers the MAX tnt will relay the call to another remote server, to relay to the main server.  But when that happens our main server crashes with a segfault.

From the MAX tnt it is SIP to the remote servers, and the remote server to the
main server is iax.

****** ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ******

OS: FC3
Kernel: 2.6.11-1.35_FC3

This was the last upgrade and we are still experiencing the problem.

I am only able to reproduce this crash but only on our live system.

Can you please confirm that this is an unoptimized build, and if not rebuild your Asterisk unoptimized? This is accomplished by doing:

make clean
make dont-optimize
make install

The overhead because of this is negligible and should not affect things.

This is a unoptimized build.

peter: is the reason you use an svn checkout of 1.2 branch instead of 1.2.13 because the problem is also present there (in the release)?

By: peter (peter) 2006-11-14 10:46:11.000-0600

We have had the problem to various degrees since version 1.2.7.  We have tried both the stable releases and the svn check outs.  Just the lastest version we have tried was an svn version.

The backtrace isn't that useful :\ unfortunately. What is the box doing at the time? Is it using AGIs? can you attach the console output? can you attach another "bt" and a "bt full"? Thanks.

bt.txt

This was a planned crash so we could get a core file with out killing any calls.  So the box was sitting with no calls.  No AGI's where running when this one happened.

bt2.txt

Was created about 10 minute after bt.txt.  Our agents where logging into the system, and I think there was a call in the system.  Then is when we where getting the calls routing through the correct remote asterisk system.  There might of been an AGI running here.

Sorry, I couldn't find the console output.

any more news on this ?

By: peter (peter) 2007-02-12 10:04:41.000-0600

No new updates.

There is nothing odd in this second backtrace either. All looks routine.

By: peter (peter) 2007-02-16 10:01:05.000-0600

All the backtraces look basicly the same.  I was hoping that a second set of eye would notice something odd.  And as far as I can remember none of the log file or the console show anything odd either.  It just dies.

what happens with a clean installation from 1.2.16 tarball?

By: peter (peter) 2007-03-07 13:37:07.000-0600

Now that Asterisk 1.4.1 is released we are in the process of upgrade the system to it.

By: Serge Vecher (serge-v) 2007-03-26 12:51:26

if still an issue with 1.4.2, please feel free to reopen the issue with a backtrace attached.
