Public bug reported: Using the OpenAFS packages shipped with Ubuntu 16.04 (1.6.15-1ubuntu1), I occasionally observe
afs: Lost contact with file server x.x.x.x in cell example.com (code -13) (all multi-homed ip addresses down for the server) errors on AFS client machines. From a user's point of view this leads to "Connection timed out" errors when trying to access files on AFS. I was not able to find any indication that this is due to networking problems. I do not observe those problems on AFS client machines running Scientific Linux which access the same servers. After switching to the packages by Anders Kaseorg from the OpenAFS PPA https://launchpad.net/~openafs/+archive/ubuntu/stable (1.6.20-1ppa1~ubuntu16.04.1) the "lost contact" errors disappeared. Thus it seems to me that the packages from the universe repository do not work reliably. ** Affects: openafs (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1656426 Title: afs: Lost contact with file server To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openafs/+bug/1656426/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
