samba - Jul 2011 - Samba4 - Cannot get quick test to succeed

Hi All,

I'm currently using/testing samba-4.0.0alpha15. I downloaded the tar 
ball, followed the Samba4 HOWTO wiki at 
http://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Samba4/HOWTO and got stuff working 
pretty well. I have experienced issues with GPOs and such and dynamic 
dns and so thought I'd try the current version but I cannot now get 
samba4 to pass quicktest (or any other test).

I've tried samba-4.0.0alpha16.tar.gz and also the latest via git.

Obviously you guys would need some specifics but I'm not sure what info 
would best help diagnose the problem. There is spurious output during 
the build with reference to 'errors 1' or 'errors 4' etc, as
there was
with the alpha15 build which did pass quicktest.

There are numerous processes left hanging around after quicktest fails 
and it always fails 5 tests but the st/summary doesn't give me any 
clues. It ends like so;

samba: EOF on stdin - terminating
./bin/samba exited with no error
./bin/samba got signal 9 and exits with 0!
samba: EOF on stdin - terminating
./bin/samba exited with no error
samba: EOF on stdin - terminating
./bin/samba exited with no error
samba: EOF on stdin - terminating
./bin/samba exited with no error
samba: EOF on stdin - terminating
./bin/samba exited with no error
samba: EOF on stdin - terminating
./bin/samba exited with no error
samba: EOF on stdin - terminating
./bin/samba exited with no error

FAILED (5 failures and 0 errors in 5 testsuites)

A summary with detailed information can be found in:
   ./st/summary
ERROR: test failed with exit code 1
make: *** [quicktest] Error 1

and sumary of st/summary;

As I say, there are no obvious signs as to why it's failing but if I can 
provide something more specific (I'm sure there is something more 
helpful) please let me know.

Regards,
Mike.

In need your config.h and smbd -b output, so I can disable the running
of certain tests on systems without some of the libraries Samba3
requires for 'ADS' support (which is what the s3member tests test - the
'Samba3' binaries in an AD domain provided by Samba4). 

These failures do not indicate any particular issue with the Samba
codebase, I just need to ensure we skip more tests in this situation.
