Hi people I'm running Xapian (1.0.9) and more specifically omega to index a few different databases. After the databases are first indexed (by user A), the dirs get chmod'ed to 0777 to allow user B full access to them. Even after the indexing is done, the file "flintlock" still exists in all database dirs. It's owned by user A (perm: -rw-------). When user B wants to change something, scriptindex waits until a) flintlock is removed OR b) flintlock is chown'ed to user B Should flintlock remain in all dirs, or is something wrong? If it should, how...

I discovered, while trying to set up Tcl bindings for Notmuch (https://notmuchmail.org/), which uses Xapian, that flintlock was not being locked (I had lost updates). I then found that opening a Xapian database for writing directly via the Xapian Tcl bindings also silently fails to lock flintlock. I have taken a copy of flint_lock.cc to play with, and I find that it locks the file when called from a minimal C main pro...

Hi Guys, I'm working on some integration project with Ruby, Rack, Apache, Phusion Passenger and Xapian. I've been having intermittent issues with the flintlock code - it seems that the function FlintLock::lock is never returning and this is locking up the Ruby process. My guess is that Xapian is locking up in a system call and Ruby can't schedule its green threads. I've done some basic debugging with strace and noticed the following: 29944 3002...

...sting of Apache httpd with mod_python. (not as a CGI) Also this is Linux. Whenever the python code attempts to open a database the entire httpd process will hang indefinitely. The python bindings work outside of the apache/mod_python environment. >From the best I can tell the hang occurs in FlintLock:lock() method. I can see that the httpd process has forked off a child using the "/bin/cat" executable, and the httpd process (which has the embedded Python interpreter) is hung on a FUTEX_WAIT system call). While this process is hung, then attempts to open the same database outside of...

Comment by Eric Lindblad 10-09-2015 http://www.nurmi-labs.blogspot.com I have sent a copy of Eric J.'s 21 Feb. 2016 dated e-mail [Database left unlocked by Tcl bindings] to a Tcl programmer in the Vancouver area, with whom I have had an exchange of e-mails before. If I receive a timely response I'll post it to the xapian-discuss list.

I'm trying to test a trivial patch to set FD_CLOEXEC on the flintlock lockfd when using F_OFD_SETLK and am running into a build failure even in an unpatched state. This is on a Debian jessie amd64 system building the jessie-backports version. The stable version (1.2.19-1+deb8u1) works and builds fine using the same commands, however I also encountered a similar bui...
