Scalix Forums

I'm having a problem with the CDA Server. It is showing as aborted. i tried the following:

omoff -d 0 -w cda
omreset -o off cda
delete the lockfile found at /var/opt/scalix/??/s/sys/omcda.lock (if it exists)
omon cda


But still says partially aborted. I've even tried rebooting the server but that didn't help either. The fatal log files shows the following:

ERROR POP3 interface(POP3 Process ) Wed Jun 13 15:26:58 2007
[SYS 2] No such file or directory
File Name: /var/opt/scalix/ml/s/nls/en_CA

How do I fix this error?

I dont know exactly where you might have configured to use "en_CA" as the language for your server (or at the the CDA) but this should be the cause.
cheers,
.d

ok but how do we fix it? I'm having the exact same problem.

I believe the ERRORs with [SYS 2] are not serious issues at their root and are not the root cause of the CDA server problems. At least, I started up Scalix with :
LANG=en_CA omrc

and the CDA server remained running.

To cause the spurious [SYS 2] errors to disappear, see below.

Scalix "knows about" en_GB (British English) and en_US (American English).
The best thing is to choose which of these is closest to Canadian English. In practice,
there is not a huge difference. Date, time and currency formats are probably
the only things that might in some server generated error messages differ.

If you edit the file, /var/opt/scalix/??/s/sys/LangMap file and add the following lines in the most appropriate place :
OMEQU=en_CA
OMEQU=en_CA.UTF-8

I put in in the "american" section for my testing...

OMLANG=american
OMSTDID=102
OMEQU=En_US
OMEQU=en_US.iso88591
OMEQU=En_US.ISO8859-1
OMEQU=en_US.roman8
OMEQU=en_US.UTF8
OMEQU=en_US.UTF-8
OMEQU=en_CA
OMEQU=en_CA.UTF-8
OMEQU=english_us
OMEQU=english_us.8859
OMEQU=english_us.885
DEFSYSLANG=en_US

Hope this helps,

ok I made those changes but to no avail. When I try to start the CDA server it still leaves it self as partially aborted. These are the 2 lines from the fatal log:

ERROR CDA Server (CDA Server ) Fri Jun 15 09:11:28 2007

I should also mention that I am using English (American) as the language setting on Administration page in the SAC.

As it stands right now the CDA server will not start and my ommaint script keeps emailing about it every 15 minutes telling me that the CDA server is aborted.

Hi,

Could you try :
omconflvl cda 15
omoff -d0 cda
omon cda
omshowlog -s cda -l 15 -p 10

Is there anything interesting in the logging produced?

Note that the language used by the CDA process, rightly or wrongly is taken from the locale of the environment in which it is started and not from the settings in SAC.

Gren.

Ok so here's the contents of the omshowlog as you requested:

Hmm. Puzzling. That looks as if it has completed its first sweep successfully (where it reports that "CDA server finished rebuilding for SYSTEM"). Are you sure that "omstat -s" shows it aborted after this?

Regards,
Gren

Yep it does. Here's the output from omstat -s:

I can understand the CDA Server being "Aborted", but what you show is it being "Partially Aborted". I thought this could only happen for services that have more than one component and the CDA server doesn't. So I'm afraid I'm still hunting in the dark a bit on this one. Could you post the output of some more commands please:

cat $(omrealpath '~/sys/cda.cfg')
omshowcda
omsetsvc -r cda
ps -fC cda.server
omstat -s|grep CDA

Also, which release of Scalix and what OS are you using?

Thanks,
Gren.

We're running it on CentOS 4 and using version 11.0.4.25

Ok I figured it out. For some reason the # of auxilary process was set to -1

Changed this to 0 using omsetsvc -x cda 0 and restarted the cda and now it's fine.

Thanks for the help

Hi,

Glad you've got to the bottom of the issue. I've add a bug to track something we might be
able to do to prevent this situation in the future (disallow setting auxiliary processes count for sub-systems that don't support them)

See http://bugzilla.scalix.com/show_bug.cgi?id=15533
