Hi,
Yesterday I made a change in queues.conf and so tried doing a reload
app_queue.so in the CLI. (Using 1.4.1 . It didn?t seem to do
anything, infact all action on CLI stopped.
Then, I did a reload. Same thing.
After that there was no other way.. because even stop now wouldn?t
work, so I did a service asterisk restart
And then asterisk kept giving the same thing on prompt ?Died
successfully? and all that it usually says when you issue a stop now,
except it kept showing that on root prompt after doing a service
asterisk restart.
Did a killall asterisk, and finally it stopped.
Then started asterisk service. It was fine.
Did a full restart at night, and it was fine.
NOW, I wanted to do a reload again today mid-day when in full use, and
it still didn?t work, and ALL of the above happened again.
--
How do I diagnose what?s causing this?
Thanks,
Mark.

I've had this problem before, haven't debugged it. I definitely look
forward to hearing what is said about this.
Example from my recent experience, I wanted to restart the server and so
did
pbx0*CLI> restart now
But nothing happened...system continued to allow calls to take place.
I've found that sometimes exiting and reconnecting to the CLI helps, but
there have been a couple occasions where NOTHING would allow the server
to restart save for a reboot. Even killall asterisk didn't kill the
process....

You are using Asterisk 1.2.x? I have seen this many, many times.
Sometimes the CLI becomes unresponsive, sometimes queues crap out or
stops delivering calls to agents, sometimes it just takes a bit and
then becomes responsive again.
The rule of thumb is don't reload queues when there are people in
queue, at least that seems to eliminate the problems I have seen.
Makes sense too.
Not sure if it is fixed in 1.4.
Thanks,
Steve Totaro |

You can create queues via AMI although it won't survive a restart.

Using 1.4.18, and I don't think it's fixed.
The unresponsiveness is permanent - although I do try to not reload during
work hours, sometimes it's just necessary.. especially when someone asks for
a new queue.

Three options.
1. Open a bug report and hope someone fixes it.
2. Use AMI AND write the new .conf entry at the same time!
3. Reload queues when empty.
I don't really understand what the issue is with number two. Although
I am not a programmer, I can see why reloading queues with callers in
the queues might be a problem.

I have observed it on repeated general reloads on all versions.
That's why I don't reload very much, only planned.

Before what? Revert to that if you had no problems. You could do
realtime queues too.

Either way, the reload worked perfectly fine before - even with callers
logged in and in full production.

You can create queues via AMI although it won't survive a restart.

You are using Asterisk 1.2.x? I have seen this many, many times.
Sometimes the CLI becomes unresponsive, sometimes queues crap out or
stops delivering calls to agents, sometimes it just takes a bit and
then becomes responsive again.
The rule of thumb is don't reload queues when there are people in
queue, at least that seems to eliminate the problems I have seen.
Makes sense too.
Not sure if it is fixed in 1.4.
Thanks,
Steve Totaro

Oh and also, in my implementation there are no queues. It seems to be
not related, I've had it in EVERY version of Asterisk I've used.

I have observed it on repeated general reloads on all versions.
That's why I don't reload very much, only planned.

Sounds like you're waiting on a mutex locked somewhere within the queue infrastructure. You'll want to take a look at DEBUG_THREAD and follow on research behind that.

Three options.
1. Open a bug report and hope someone fixes it.
2. Use AMI AND write the new .conf entry at the same time!
3. Reload queues when empty.
I don't really understand what the issue is with number two. Although
I am not a programmer, I can see why reloading queues with callers in
the queues might be a problem.

Sorry about that. Gave you some 'dated' info there in that link. Try
this instead maybe for 1.4...
Tips for Asterisk 1.4
Two things you need to make sure you enable when you compile asterisk:
DEBUG_THREADS
DONT_OPTIMIZE
These can be toggled under the "Compiler Flags" options when you do a
"make menuselect". Make sure that you have them turned on (I.E. an
Asterisk next to them).
Then, follow the guidelines for obtaining a backtrace with GDB. These
can be found in the file "asterisk/doc/backtrace.txt".
I would suggest that you issue the following, to make your life easy;
script backtrace.txt <- This will start a typescript session, which
captures the Input / Output from the session into a file called
"backtrace.txt"
Once you get into gdb, then issue: "set pagination off" to turn of paging.
Then, get your backtrace, exit out of GDB and come find someone on
#asterisk-dev on irc.freenode.org to take a look at your backtrace or
the asterisk-dev mailing list.
Backtracing a core dump file in /tmp
1. start Asterisk with safe_asterisk
2. enter "gdb asterisk core.xxxx"
3. enter "bt" while in gdb (or do a "bt full")
4. enter "thread apply all bt"
Naturally you'll need to have gdb installed on your system

1. start Asterisk with safe_asterisk
2. enter "gdb asterisk core.xxxx"
3. enter "bt" while in gdb (or do a "bt full")
4. enter "thread apply all bt"
Naturally you'll need to have gdb installed on your system
