Trouble running mongod

[mikong]

Hi.
Just checking if someone else encountered this. I extracted version
0.9.6 of mongoDB for OSX on my OSX Tiger machine. When I run mongod,
nothing gets logged in the terminal and my CPU just shoots up and
stays up for a while. I waited a bit but I'm not really comfortable
keeping my CPU temp above 80 degrees Celsius (above 176 degrees
Fahrenheit), so I would stop it. I've seen this being run on my
friend's OSX machine (though it's a Leopard) and it doesn't really use
much CPU so I don't think waiting for something to happen in my case
would work. Any clues would help.

Thanks.

I guess it could be a tiger issue - need to find a tiger machine to run it on.

Could you run it in gbd and then see where it is?

gdb mongod
run run
ctrl-c
info threads
where

Hi Eliot, thanks for the quick response. Here's the output from gdb:

run run:

Tried the nightly build (2009-07-21). With a normal run, I get a "Bus
error". Tried gdb with it:

run run (same logs as above)

info threads (similar as above)

where:

#0 0x9010c812 in _malloc_initialize ()

There must be an issue with tiger...
Will see if i can find a tiger machine to mess with tomorrow.

[mikong]

Thanks

I can confirm that the problem goes back to at least version 0.8.0 on
my Tiger MBP OS X 10.4.11.

Thanks for confirming this issue. I was getting worried that the
problem is only with my machine. I also tried older versions, and I
have the same problem though I didn't go as far back as 0.8.0.

[mikong]

FYI, the error still occurs in 0.9.7.

[Eliot Horowitz]

We just got a tiger machine today - should have a tiger build up soon.

[mikong]

Nice :)

We have a Tiger machine set up and have reproduced the error - working
on a fix, hopefully will have something in the next few days.

[mikong]

Do you think the fix will be on 0.9.8? Or is it planned after, like
1.0?

[Eliot Horowitz]

We're going to try to get it in 0.9.8.

[Sam Corder]

Is it in any of the nightlies yet?

Not yet - we'll post to this thread when it's fixed.

[mikong]

The Tiger issue was marked as fixed here: http://jira.mongodb.org/browse/SERVER-231

Checking the buildbot, http://buildbot.mongodb.org, OS X 10.4 build
was successful (although the nightly version still failed).

But I'm still getting the error when using the OS X 32-bit version
from the Downloads section. Anyway, I'll be trying to build this from
source. The instructions in the Building for OS X page seem pretty
straightforward (http://www.mongodb.org/display/DOCS/Building+for+OS
+X).

[Michael Dirolf]

Can you try this build?

We'll end up having a separate build for tiger - so the 32-bit regular
os x build isn't expected to work. We should be getting the tiger
build up and running for people to test sometime today.

Building from source should also work though.

The mongodb-osx-i386-tiger-latest.tgz works! Thanks :)

[Michael Dirolf]

Great - we've added a link on the downloads section of the wiki.
