[Bug 164971] Re: Gnome freezes after moving or deleting many files
It seems to be a pure Nautilus problem indeed. It is not Gnome but Nautilus that freezes. Restarting Nautilus is sufficient to get it working for a while, there is no need to restart the X-Server as I did first. There is no ordinary program crash; Nautilus freezes rather slowly: To begin, the specific icons for music files are replaced by neutral symbols, then Nautilus refuses to open files and the above mentioned error-message appears. At last even open windows can't be closed any more. The Gnome-panels continue to work. So Nautilus can be shut down and restartet by system/administration/system-monitor. It seems to me that Nautilus behaves as if there really were too many open files, even if there are not. I suppose that it forgets to close files correctly after handling them. I think the problem is new in Gutsy (Nautilus 2.20.0). I had never observed it before. -- Gnome freezes after moving or deleting many files https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/164971 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

[Bug 164971] Re: Gnome freezes after moving or deleting many files
I don't think this logfile is very instructive. It is the actual one, even beeng rather old (07-11-19). The problem had appeared several times since, not creating a debug file. It seems to me that Nautilus not really crashed but that there were really too many open files, even if I had not opened any. I noticed the bug always when I managed audio-files, specially mp3. That for I would not be surprised if it turned out to be a problem of audio preview, opening files to identify them and not closing them correctly afterwards.That could lead to a big number of open files. In Bug #125739 a similar problem arrised from the beginning and not only after some time of handling files. Maybe there were much more files in one folder. ** Attachment added: "nautilus-debug-log.txt" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/10589921/nautilus-debug-log.txt -- Gnome freezes after moving or deleting many files https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/164971 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

[Bug 164971] Re: Gnome freezes after moving or deleting many files
I turned off audio preview, and the bug happened again. So I can be quite shure that it is not a problem of audio preview and that it has probably nothing to do with Bug #125739. Yet it was always after handling a lot of mp3-files that I did observe the bug. Could it be possible that the files are opened for identifying and not well closed afterwards?

I still can't get a logfile. The last time that Nautilus has freezed I had handled mp3-files again. The system monitor showed Nautilus still running continiously with 83% CPU and 381 MB memory. That's enormous, usually it uses about 10 MB. After shutting down and restarting Nautilus everything was normal with 10,2 MB of memory used by Nautilus and Nautilus sleeping when there is no action.

It all looks to me as if there were really too many files opened. But how did they get opened and not closed afterwards?

[Bug 164971] Re: Gnome freezes after moving or deleting many files
There have some new important details been observed since, even if we could not get a useful logfile yet: When audio preview is activated, but not working for there is no esound installed, a new pipe is opened whenever the mouse is moved over a symbol of a mp3-file (You can see that with lsof -c nautilus). That can lead very quickly to a huge number of open files, and Nautilus will freeze quite soon. After deactivating audio preview the number of open pipes does not increase any more by moseover, but it still does increase by handling mp3-files, so that the same bug still can happen, but later than before and not so often. Obviously there are other programs (perhaps players or plugins) who do open pipes. Even if this bug is not a problem of Nautilus itself, it is very ennoying, and new users will loose confidence in Ubuntu when observing such problems! It should absolutely be fixed soon with a official developpers patch! -- Gnome freezes after moving or deleting many files https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/164971 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

[Bug 164971] Re: Gnome freezes after moving or deleting many files
I can confirm this bug. It first happened when I tried to gather all the files for the cdburner to create a mp3 CD. It was a real pain because it was not possible to burn the cd or save the stuff I configured for this cd. So I had to start from scratch and all work of 2h music selection was gone. Now I am copying the file and I will burn the cd at once when all files are there. During this preparation I have encountered the "Too many open files" Bug several times and I solved it with logging in/out. This bug is really a pain in the ... uhm ...

I can confirm this bug when working with MP3 files. Nautilus debug log attached, although I don't think it will be of much use. I ran lsof and compared results between a fresh boot and when the problem is occurring. It seems to be characterized by nautilus opening an extremely large number of pipes (more than 1000). ** Attachment added: "nautilus-debug-log.txt" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/11104630/nautilus-debug-log.txt -- Gnome freezes after moving or deleting many files https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/164971 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
