Ruby 1.9.1 and god about god HOT 19 OPEN

The same error happens with god 0.7.22 as well.

from god.

It looks like God is no longer using that "critical=" method of Thread which no longer exists in Ruby 1.9, so it might work now.

from god.

god 0.8 has removed the usage of Thread.critical=.

I believe there may be a couple other problems that need to be solved before 1.9 works, though.

from god.

I'm getting this with 0.8.0 on Ruby 1.9.1

    Unhandled exception in driver loop - (NotImplementedError): timeout is not implemented yet 
    /usr/local/lib/ruby/1.9/monitor.rb:92:in `wait'

    /usr/local/lib/ruby19/gems/1.9/gems/god-0.8.0/lib/god/driver.rb:144:in `block in initialize'

I've not had a chance to dig into it though, but I'll have a look over the next few days.

from god.

bump

I think this should be promoted to critical...

from god.

igrigorik: Did the fix you tried end up working?

from god.

Partially. I installed your branch which introduces compat19.rb + grabbed thread.rb from latest head of ruby 1.9 to make it work. That solved the "driver loop" exception show above, but there are other bugs still.

Namely, god appears to hang indefinitely when it tries to fork a new process: I see the child that it's trying to spawn in the tree, and it appears to be stuck in that state. (Doesn't happen everytime & unfortunately don't know the exact conditions under which this happens)

from god.

Could you attach gdb to the process and give the output of running "where"?

That's odd that it would be hanging there — there isn't a lot that it does before running exec().

from god.

Attaching to the god process itself yields:

Also, strace:

Process 10887 attached - interrupt to quit
futex(0x16dd5b8, FUTEX_WAIT, 2, NULL 
Process 10887 detached

When it's in this state, the process is completely unresponsive.. god log / status, etc., all return "server not available".

from god.

I've committed another method to remove the need to grab thread.rb. It is available here:

http://github.com/eric/god/tree/condition-variable-1.9-support

I'm still trying to figure out why it would be hanging here.

from god.

Eric, don't think that solved it. I'm trying to find the actual sequence that reproduces the error, but so far this it the pattern I'm seeing: startups fine, loads all the processes it should. Then I start randomly killing processes (kill -9) to get god to bring them back up. Works well for the most part, except every once in a while, it get's stuck. In ps I can see that god is trying to fork a process, but it's stuck in that state.. Below is the output of god process itself, and the child that's trying to fork:

god process itself..

A few more observations: if I kill the forked process, god responds to commands, but it doesn't bring up the process on which it blocked in the first place. However, if I issue an explicit "god restart proc", it does seem to come back.

This is the same issue as #8.
