Adam Kocoloski updated COUCHDB-994: ----------------------------------- Attachment: 0001-Write-header-before-handing-over-compacted-group.patch Here's a patch to address issue #1. It ensures that the compacted view group has a valid header before handing it over to the couch_view_group process. This means that the index will not be reset if the server crashes after the file has been renamed but before the next delayed_commit message arrives. It does not address the possibility of using a .compact view index if the main index file has been deleted, which could happen if the server crashes in between the delete and the rename. > Crash after compacting large views > ---------------------------------- > > Key: COUCHDB-994 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COUCHDB-994 > Project: CouchDB > Issue Type: Bug > Affects Versions: 1.0.2 > Environment: Centos5 64bit vm with 2CPU and 4G RAM running Erlang > R14B and configured to use the 64bit js-devel libraries. > URL: http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/couchdb/branches/1.0.x > Repository Root: http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf > Repository UUID: 13f79535-47bb-0310-9956-ffa450edef68 > Revision: 1050680 > Reporter: Bob Clary > Fix For: 1.1.1, 1.2 > > Attachments: > 0001-Write-header-before-handing-over-compacted-group.patch, > 2011-06-11-couchdb.log, 2011-06-13-couchdb.log, 2011-06-15-2-couchdb.log, > 2011-06-15-couchdb.log, 2011-06-16-couchdb.log, couch_errors.txt, > couch_errors_2.txt, couchdb-994-db-open-logic-11x.patch, > couchdb-994-db-open-logic.patch > > > The database has over 9 million records. Several of the views are relatively > dense in that they emit a key for most documents. The views are successfully > created initially but with relatively large sizes from 20 to 95G. When > attempting to compact them, the server will crash upon completion of the > compaction. > This does not occur with the released 1.0.1 version but does with the 1.0.x > svn version. I'll attach example logs. Unfortunately they are level error and > may not have enough information. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
