frequent "timeout 08" timeouts

Post by Minstrel » Thu 02.10.2008, 01:09

Just compiled on debian etch and everything runs fine except that the game closes out with a "Quitting: timeout 08" message any time I idle for more than a few seconds. If I'm constantly moving, typing, etc, it's fine, but if I just sit there without sending any input it crashes out. Any ideas?

Are you trying to play on the internet, or running a local server? If it's on internet, do you have the same problem locally?

It's on the internet, default server. I'll give it a try with a local server to see.

Yep same issue when connecting to localhost as the server.

Unfortunately, there is no answer.. This problem was reported before, and it was just reported again, but it is very hard to tell what's the deal with it remotly. Gaining some access to your box would definitly shed more light, but that is simply not how support is done. So if you think you could provide any additional/debug info, please do.

I know that's not a very good reply, and am sorry.

I'll check out the logs on my box to see if there is anything additional I can post.

It's also set up to dual boot to win XP, so I'll install the Windows client when I have a chance to eliminate the possibility of network issues. My laptop running SUSE works fine, but it's on a different part of the home network.

Runs without issue on WinXP on the same PC. Will post more with log info from the unix install later.

Any chance the build has got a little too much optimization happening that could screw with the timing? Try a Debian compile with debugging on and see if it acts differently...

I'm afraid I'm not the most technically savvy linux user out there. Did you mean to make the executable using the -d flag? If so, I did that and it behaves as before. I'm not sure where to look in the debugging into that got output to find anything giving any clues.

Are you running a 64-bit system by any chance?

Could you run this program and copy the output here?

Code: Select all

#include <stdio.h>

	struct timeval cur_time;
	gettimeofday(&cur_time, NULL);

Yes, I am running a 64 bit install. I'll let you know the results hopefully this weekend.

Re: frequent "timeout 08" timeouts

Post by Flambard » Sun 07.12.2008, 08:46

Thanks for your time!

Those aren't the results I was expecting :( I was quite sure it had something to do with time resolution, and the machine being 64-bit hinted at the same direction.. However, "Method I" is what mangband uses, and "14 pings" is the correct result (I'm getting same ammount on my machine).. I guess I shall ask, How much time subjectivly did "Method I" took? It's my last straw really. But we'll look more into this.

I'd run it again for a less subjective answer if I weren't running out the door shortly, but as I recall the first 8 lines or so of method 1 went by very fast, 10 seconds total perhaps. It took around another 2 minutes for method 1 to complete.

Ah-ha, thank you. So it's timing issue afterall.

Luckily for you, we just received a notice the patch is on it's way. I guess we can do some preliminary testing... Does this code work ?

Code: Select all

#include <stdio.h>
#include <limits.h>
#include <time.h>
#include <sys/time.h>

#if defined(__alpha) || defined(__amd64__)
# define L64
typedef unsigned int u32b;
#else
typedef unsigned long u32b;
#endif

int   ticks   = 0;   // 100ms ticks
u32b   mticks   = 0;   // 1ms    ticks

int   start_tick = 0;
int   delay = 10000;
int   pings = 0;

void update_ticks()
{
   struct timeval cur_time;
   int newticks;
   float scale = 100000;
