btsync just dies


Recommended Posts

It was working for a while, then today I noticed that it wasn't running anymore on my linux server.

Running on 1.0.116

If I run

./btsync --config sync.confit just dies after a few seconds.

My sync.log is 0 bytes

If I try and run

./btsync --config sync.conf --nodaemonIt runs for a few seconds and then just says "Killed"

again sync.log is 0 bytes

32-bit btsync on a 3.4.36 kernel

thanks!

If Linux just says "Killed" that's probably the OOM killer.

How big is your 'sync.dat' file ? (Possibly .sync/sync.dat) How much memory in the machine?

This http://forum.bittorr...-syncapp-issue/ shows you how to turn on debug logging.

NB: OOM = Out Of Memory

Thanks for the reply.

The sync.dat is about 75MB, the machine has 2GB memory

I tried to turn on debug logging, but it looks like it's not starting or initiated to do any debugging.

I do wonder if OOM is the potential culprit.

thanks!

Yeah, I think OOM is the culprit here. I've been getting this too running on an AWS micro instances that is shared with some other stuff. I have 60k+ files (git repositories) and the client has just recently gotten to where it will not run. I killed apache temporarily and the client started for a minute or so and then died. It never got the web interface up.
