The latest version of xrootd (20041214) is causing us some headaches. We are getting repeated disconnections twixt client and server. This may be our fault, but I don't think so. Anyway, in the process it revealed a serious problem that is not our fault. In XrdClientPhyConnection.cc the method BuildMessage has the call (at approx. line 402) m->ReadRaw(this); ReadRaw returns an error code (throwing an exception might have been better) if there was a socket error of some sort. This error is not checked for and so it loops in(de)finitely, printing error messages in the logs, but not actually dying or trying to reconnect, or anything user friendly. I will get back to you about the problem of the disconnects if I figure out why they are happening. (Does anybody read Henry Spencer's "The 10 Commandments of C Programming" anymore? Yea! Verily!!) -- Gregory J. Sharp email: [log in to unmask] Wilson Synchrotron Laboratory url: http://www.lepp.cornell.edu/~gregor Dryden Rd ph: +1 607 255 4882 Ithaca, NY 14853 fax: +1 607 255 8062
