Error Starting Argus Daemon

Hi,

Sorry, no messages printed, other than those from the debug!

Ran with lower debug level:

$ /opt/csw/bin/sudo /usr/local/sbin/argus -D3 -F /etc/argus.conf
argus[3909.01000000]: 31 Jan 13 16:50:02.803234 ArgusNewModeler() returning 80c0f58
argus[3909.01000000]: 31 Jan 13 16:50:02.810449 ArgusNewSource(80c0f58) returning 80c3f18
argus[3909.01000000]: 31 Jan 13 16:50:02.810502 ArgusNewOutput() returning retn 84cc230
argus[3909.01000000]: 31 Jan 13 16:50:02.818848 setArgusID(80c3f34, 0x89cd5bc0) done
argus[3909.01000000]: 31 Jan 13 16:50:02.818897 setArgusPortNum(561) returning
argus[3909.01000000]: 31 Jan 13 16:50:02.818919 clearArgusDevice(80c3f18) returning
argus[3909.01000000]: 31 Jan 13 16:50:02.824410 setArgusDevice(nxge0) returning

Return code:

$ echo $?
0

Same messages in /var/adm/messages.

If I run argus in daemon mode (using the command line toggle):

$ /opt/csw/bin/sudo /usr/local/sbin/argus -F /etc/argus.conf -d

I get the following in /var/adm/messages:

Jan 31 16:54:48 cachi argus[4100]: [ID 586304 daemon.warning] 31 Jan 13 16:54:48.106655 started
Jan 31 16:54:48 cachi argus[4100]: [ID 289320 daemon.warning] 31 Jan 13 16:54:48.114981 ArgusGetInterfaceStatus: interface nxge0 is up
Jan 31 16:54:49 cachi argus[4100]: [ID 458095 daemon.warning] 31 Jan 13 16:54:49.116451 stopped

So, no message on exit.

Is it worth recompiling without debug & symbols etc?

Regards, Neal.

Hey Neal,
No need to run with the " -D 8 " at this point, as we're at least functional.
2 or 3 will be more than needed to understand faults and exit status, but most faults generate their own messages, so -D may not be needed.

Does argus print out any message at the point where it exists?  It does normally complain before it exits.

Argus is a multi-threaded program, and while its suppose to exit if any of its parts fail, the bug maybe that a part of argus runs, even though most of it is dead.  So, we need to fix the socket option error, and the write() error.
