Not sure why, but sometimes svnserve segfaults when it runs via xinetd. It turns out to be highly repeatable for specific svn transactions/commands. Ie:
svn merge -c 2454 . ../../branches/3.4/src causes the segfault, but another svn command works fine (I had just done a number of commits). I've seen it happen with svn update as well, so it doesn't seem specific to merge. Not really sure why, but here is what I'm getting in /var/log/messages: Apr 18 04:51:59 lagavulin kernel: svnserve[28484]: segfault at b786f2fc ip b7503814 sp bfd4b6e0 error 4 in libsasl2.so.2.0.22[b74f4000+18000] Apr 18 04:51:59 lagavulin xinetd[2797]: EXIT: svn signal=11 pid=28484 duration=0(sec) Note the same command works find when svnserve runs as a daemon. I am using SASL auth, but 9/10 times it works just fine. client is OSX/x86 10.6.3, svn v1.6.9 and v1.6.11 server is Linux (CentOS 5.3/x86), svn v1.6.9 Anyways, problem has seem to gone away after switching to daemon mode, so I don't need anyone to fix my problem, but figured a bug report was warranted. -- Aaron Turner http://synfin.net/ Twitter: @synfinatic http://tcpreplay.synfin.net/ - Pcap editing and replay tools for Unix & Windows Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety. -- Benjamin Franklin "carpe diem quam minimum credula postero"
