ipfs add hangs for > 6h

[dignifiedquire]

Report from IRC (user tidux)

If you want progress with add you need to do: ipfs add -p .mp3
[1:15pm] tidux: I did use that
[1:16pm] tidux: "no visible progress" means the f** bar hasn't moved in six hours
[1:16pm] dignifiedquire: tidux: that sounds like a bug
[1:16pm] tidux: like I said, I'd report it on github but my account is locked out
[1:16pm] dignifiedquire: or at best something gone very wrong somewhere
[1:17pm] tidux: is there some sort of exclusive lock generated when the daemon is running?
[1:17pm] dignifiedquire: could you create a pastebin/gist of your log output, I’ll create a report
[1:17pm] tidux: I've got it backgrounded as a systemd service
[1:17pm] alterego: tidux: no, the command line client will use the daemon if it finds it.
[1:17pm] tidux: it's not logging anything
[1:17pm] dignifiedquire: also, what version are you running 0.3.9?
[1:17pm] tidux: ~/.ipfs/logs is empty
[1:17pm] tidux: 0.3.9
[1:18pm] dignifiedquire: okay
[1:18pm] dignifiedquire: before you cancel, there is a way to get a stacktrace from the running process
[1:18pm] dignifiedquire: let me quickly dig up the command for that
[1:19pm] dignifiedquire: tidux: if you could run this: curl localhost:5001/debug/pprof/goroutine?debug=2 > debug.log and add the output to your pastebin that would be really helpful
[1:20pm] tidux: > wc -l debug.log
[1:20pm] tidux: 268581 debug.log
[1:20pm] tidux: I think I'll just link it directly from my webserver
[1:21pm] dignifiedquire: yeah that file can get quite large
[1:22pm] tidux: https://borg.moe/ipfs-debug/debug.log

It would be faster to debug if the bug can be reproduced (e.g. using sample .mp3 files).

Also, I'm advocating for anon bug report experiment as stated in #1946 (comment). Github account shouldn't be required.

Some more updates from IRC

tidux:
possibly related: I have the local gateway reverse proxied to nginx on port 80 on that system and have seen other people using it
[1:29pm] tidux:
ok it's definitely related to something in the running environment of that server
[1:29pm] tidux:
the same ipfs add command completed in less than a minute on my desktop

[dignifiedquire]

Github account shouldn't be required.

Fully agreed

I see, is s/he recreating the ipfs.io gateway from scratch?
(if @lgierth can sense what is possibly wrong with that local daemon)

Though in the past, reproducible bugs (not necessarily have to be container-ed) were more likely to be fixed.

This might be jbenet/go-peerstream#21 cc @whyrusleeping

[ghost]

Plenty of goroutine 92200796 [semacquire, 38 minutes] from jbenet/go-peerstream.(*Conn).Close()

[whyrusleeping]

very likely, yeah

[whyrusleeping]

oh yeah, tidux was the one who helped me find that bug in the first place, lol

[whyrusleeping]

i sent him stickers for it

[ghost]

haha ok :) let's close this one then, or do we need to update godeps?

[whyrusleeping]

we need to update godeps
