I just picked up the latest from CVS and got this...

Dan,
You have to use configure --disable-mysql to disable mysql if you don't use
it. Otherwise it will bring in code that reference external mysql calls.

Hello all!

There are some minor bugs in the mySQL bit, and I am fixing them at the
moment. I should be able to send a patch later this day.

If you are in a hurry, the problem below can be solved easly:
In top of mysql.c, remove the #ifdef HAVE_MYSQL to below the #include
files, so the file would look like this:

<<- snip ->>
#include "ntop.h"
#include "globals-report.h"

#ifdef HAVE_MYSQL
MYSQL mysql, *mysql_sock;
<<- snip ->>

So, if you guys can give me some time, I will make the mySQL cleaner and
better.

Vidar,
I did that when I first got the release, but if you do not intend to use
mysql at all, ntop will core dump on startup when it is looking for the
mysql server.

I got some time yesterday to setup my new Ntop test box, dual 1GHz PIII with
1GB of RAM, RedHat 7.1. Grabbed the CVS, compiled and installed it (libpcap
too of course). I still get the pausing problem. Ntop has been running for
over 16 hours now, and every once in a while (haven't done exact timing yet)
the usage spikes to 100% and traffic going by gets dropped. The spike is
only about 6 seconds now as opposed to 30, so less traffic is being missed,
but it's still a major bug.

Remember folks, always test your tools before you take their word as law.

Dan,
Obviously I cannot release ntop 2 until I fix this problem. However I have
no clue how to reproduce the problem here. Please enable all the tracings
and send me the ntop log.

Many thanks, Luca

I created a log with -t 5 and had a look. There's no evidence of the
pausing in the messages, aside from the delay when the program is running
which is evidenced by the timestamps of the messages. A 7 minute shutdown
time at the end is also visible.

I guess now I should start to turn on some debug messages in the code. Can
you suggest where to start? I'm strongly leaning to this being gdbm
related, or management of the hosts hash.
