[Freeipa-users] krb5kdc process at 100%

Fri Sep 9 19:14:44 UTC 2011

I have linked a zip the whole directory from abrt. After typing "abrt-cli -l" it outputted:
-----
Directory:      /var/spool/abrt/ccpp-2011-09-09-13:41:51-972

Link to crash.zip<http://studentweb.stcloudstate.edu/smma0901/crash.zip>

This appears to be my current ldap "openldap-2.4.24-3.fc15.x86_64".

If it crashes it is a bug in the KDC.
Can you please get us the core dump when it crashes ?

If you have abtrd installed it should be somewhere in /var/cache/abrt (check /var/log/messages) to see where.

Alternatively you can run service krb5kdc stop then as root in a shell run ulimit -c unlimited and manually start /usr/sbin/krb5kdc wait for the crash then take the core file generated.

Please also tell what is the exact version of the krb5-server package and the related ldap driver package.

Simo.
