[Bug 1022434] Re: sshd server crashes on startup
Some more experiments following a lead about liblsp.so. This was not (as I thought) part of the core system, but it belongs to the astrill package, which provides vpn client software. It so happens I was given a beta version of the client. On the machine that mysteriously re-started working with sshd I had removed the beta clent and re-installed an older version. To confirm, I uninstalled the beta from the 'bad' box, and immediately found sshd worked straight away on reboot. I reinstalled the older version of the Astrill client, and sshd continued to work fine. The problem, therefore, lies in the astrill package (or at least the beta version I was given). It is not part of the core Ubuntu system, so I am marking this bug 'invalid'. I will take up resolution with the software providers. ** Changed in: openssh (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete => Invalid -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1022434 Title: sshd server crashes on startup To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openssh/+bug/1022434/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1022434] Re: sshd server crashes on startup
This is just a thought, and I have no real evidence, but the problems started on my systems on or around the time I installed Eclipse and Python 3.2 to do some exploratory software work, just learning my way around Python. I also installed Pygame, which had to be compiled and installed manually to upgrade it to 3.2. Could there be a connection here? Since I rebuilt the machine that now works, it has all that stuff re- installed, so this really is just a speculation. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1022434 Title: sshd server crashes on startup To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openssh/+bug/1022434/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1022434] Re: sshd server crashes on startup
Hi Robie I think you may be onto something, but I don't have the knowledge to offer any concrete way forward. I have seen liblsp.so and libc.so.6 repeatedly referred to in the crash reports I am getting, but this could just be because these libraries are so basic to the system functioning. AFAIK these are part of the core c libraries used in the kernel, they are deep in the system. FYI sshd is now working on one of my computers, but I am equally puzzled as to why it started working again as to why it failed in the first place. I completely rebuilt the / partition, but this failed on its own to get sshd working. However, a few days and many reboots later, suddenly there it was, working. Possibly something else I downloaded in the interim made the difference, but it is a mystery what or why. I have attached my /var/log/apt/history.log from the machine in question, in case you can make anything of it. I don't know if this is a related issue, but as referred to in my message to Michael yesterday, apport or ubuntu-bug does not seem to be working properly either. This complicates the process of getting you the data. ** Attachment added: "Package history from my computer where sshd is now mysteriously working." https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openssh/+bug/1022434/+attachment/3223619/+files/history.log -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1022434 Title: sshd server crashes on startup To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openssh/+bug/1022434/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1022434] Re: sshd server crashes on startup
It looks like freeaddrinfo is defined in libc.so.6, but on both of your systems it is being overridden by liblsp.so. Interestingly, this file isn't versioned, which is a bit odd. Is this LD_PRELOAD in use perhaps? Is this override intentional, or is this some kind of malware?

[Bug 1022434] Re: sshd server crashes on startup
Any idea what /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/liblsp.so is? This seems to be related to the crash, but I can't figure out where this comes from. Is it part of Ubuntu? My search of all files that Ubuntu provides across all packages is coming up empty. Am I doing something wrong, or is this a third party library? I need debugging symbols from this library to understand the crash dump, but I can't find where to get them since I can't find a package in Ubuntu that provides it. The only Google hit is http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2013205 which looks like a similar crash and was fixed by reinstalling, which perhaps removed liblsp.so? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1022434 Title: sshd server crashes on startup To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openssh/+bug/1022434/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. However, your crash report is either missing or challenging to deal with as a ".crash" file. Please follow these instructions to have apport report a new bug about your crash that can be dealt with by the automatic retracer. If you are running the Ubuntu Stable Release you might need to enable apport in /etc/default/apport and restart. Now open your file manager, navigate to your /var/crash directory and open the crash report you wish to submit. If this fails you will have to open a terminal and file your report with 'ubuntu-bug /var/crash/_my_crash_report.crash' where _my_crash_report.crash is the crash you would like to report. If you get an error that you aren't allowed to access this report you will have to file it with 'sudo ubuntu-bug /var/crash/_my_crash_report.crash'.
