Ubuntu :: SSH "Write Failed: Broken Pipe" For Some Users
May 10, 2010
I am having a truly bizarre problem when trying to set up my sheeva plug as a backup server. I have four users (one for each member of my family) that I want to give permission to ssh in (well, sftp in but they're essentially the same) and backup to an external harddrive.
My user works perfectly well and has done since I got the plug. So does a transmission user I set up to run the transmission daemon. With the other three users, however, I get the following error after SSH asks for the user's password:
Code:
Write failed: Broken pipe
This happens whether I try locally or over my network. I haven't been able to find a solution to it at all. I've made sure that /bin/bash was set as the shell and that the home directory is writeable with the correct permissions (ls -al /home):
Code:
drwxr-xr-x 7 root root 4096 Dec 21 19:25 .
drwxr-xr-x 21 root root 4096 Dec 17 19:27 ..
[code]...
The alternative for me would be to use netatalk and AFP but the problem is that there is no native support for AFP and so things like d�ja dup backup may not be able to mount the afp drive...

I connect to our server by ssh, default ssh client on Debian system.when I run a command that has large output on stdout (on shell) my connection is lost and I get error: "Write failed: Broken pipe"Unfortunate on our server there is limitation for connection per hour!

which cropped up today after no changes to the system: I can successfully ssh into my ubuntu 64-bit 9.10 machine (via OS X with iTerm), but after about 30 seconds, the connection drops with the message "Connection reset by peer Connection to xx.xx.xx.xx closed".
If I then try to immediately ssh back in I get: "Write failed: Broken pipe". If I try to immediately ping the machine instead, I cannot ping it until the ~10th try. Eventually I can log back in again, only to be kicked off after between 5 and 60 seconds. I called the network people and their are no known issue right now with networking. The networking on the ubuntu machine is otherwise fine, it seems. In the /var/log/auth.log file, it simple says:
Quote:
Feb 9 14:19:20 harriet sshd[4134]: Accepted password for xxx from xx.xx.xx.xx port 55105 ssh2
Feb 9 14:19:20 harriet sshd[4134]: pam_unix(sshd:session): session opened for user xxx by (uid=0)
Feb 9 14:19:28 harriet sshd[4046]: pam_unix(sshd:session): session closed for user xxx
The solution I come across to a similar problem is to add a "ClientAwakeInterval" number to sshdconfig, but this (as expected) doesn't fix my problem.

I move a page from a server in SuSe to Debian and this script was working well but when I move the page to a Debian base server it is sending in the logs the following message:
cat: write error: Broken pipe, referer: [URL]
The cgi does the following, read a db file plain text that repeat each 15 lines an information where to look the seraching info. if it is there sends to the output the 15 lines block. but it was not sending errors in suse distro, does anybody knows why the cat's line are sending "cat: write error: Broken pipe," if I am not writing or making a pipe with ">" to none file.

I've written a simple server in linux used fork to create a FIFO pipe.The server create two FIFO pipe.One for server read data from client and write data to client.Then another pipe for client read data from server and write data to server.When the server read data from a client used server-pipe and then write data to client.But ,if the client no read open the pipe,the server side write will be crashed because of a broken-pipe SIGPIPE. How to check whether the read side is opened?Or,how to catch the SIGPIPE,and then my server will still execute on,not crashed!!

I am running somes instances of Redis. I want to get Redis stats with following command:
Code:
$ echo "info" | nc <server_IP> <port>
but sometime it returns nothing. The first thing come to my mind is broken pipe or something like this. I always get the result if telnet to Redis and typing 'info' command. I also try pipe viewer to monitor the progress of data but it didn't help:
Code:
$ echo "info" | pv | nc <server_IP> <port>

I am building a python script which works same as SMTP protocol. I have build separate functions in that for each command of SMTP, and after this i have integrated all those functions in a new function named as send_mail(so that i don't have to execute every function separately for every command). Now, when i execute the script for the first time it runs successfully, but for the second time it gives the error of "BROKEN PIPE". I really can't make out how the socket is getting closed.

I have installed a LAMP server (Debian Lenny + Apache2 + PHP Version 5.3.1-0.dotdeb.1). On this machine, my web application (PHP + MySQL) exists in 2 flavours:
- Dev
- Prod
In /etc/apache2/sites-available, I have ims & ims-dev, one for each instance. Their contents are identical in terms of settings, except for the paths (dev/prod):
Code:
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerAdmin admin@domain.com
ServerName ims.domain.com
ServerAlias ims.domain.com
[code]....
why this difference when the settings are strictly identical? Do I need to add EnableSendfile off in my conf files to stop that?

I understand that the linux pipe is a buffer and that any data written to it will stay there until it is read, and if the max capacity of the buffer is reached, any additional writes will block (by default).
HOWEVER, the behavior of the pipeline below suggest that the write operations are buffered/cached before ever being written to the pipe on the client side here is write.sh, which creates 1000 byte string and writes it 100 times to stdout... the idea being that it'll block as soon as the 64kb linux pipe size is reached:
[Code]...
This is not what I was expecting: I was expected that once the capacity was reached, any reads would be followed immediately by a write to take advantage of the freed space. Instead, the blocked write operation seems to wait for some random amount of time/space to free until it unblocks and writes.

I wrote y bash script that opens YouTube playlist using youtube-dl and VLC applications: the output of youtube-dl is the input of VLC. The only problem is VLC needs to be closed after each playlist item unless I get the error message of the operating system:
"ERROR: unable to write data: [Errno 32] Broken pipe".
I understand the reason but I don't know how to resolve it: it is possible to close previous STDIN of VLC without killing the entire VLC process so that a new youtube-dl instance can connect to the same VLC instance? In short this is my question. The problem is detailed here: Downloading and playing videos and subtitles.

I'm doing ping between 2 RH servers through a VPN site2site tunnel and in some times I got in the result pipe 2 and another pipe 3 as I mark it in blue color below.
e.g.
64 bytes from 192.168.1.10: icmp_seq=0 ttl=128 time=0.229 ms
64 bytes from 192.168.1.10: icmp_seq=1 ttl=128 time=0.287 ms
64 bytes from 192.168.1.10: icmp_seq=2 ttl=128 time=0.278 ms
[code]....
What's the difference between pipe 2 and pipe 3 and what's the meaning of it?

I'm having some real troubles with my install of Ubuntu 10.04 LTS. It was a fresh install just after 10.04 was released, so it's not been installed long. Just recently lots of things have stopped working I can't sudo (sudo: must be setuid root) Trying to su root tells me I got the password wrong, even though I know it's right Sound has broken Brasero won't write CDs anymore Plugging in a pendrive gives some permissions mounting error Clicking 'shut down' just logs out. The machine won't shut down at all. I'm guessing this might all be related to permissions/users? I really don't want to have to reinstall again!

I have shared two external harddrives via samba on ubuntu, but only I can access it. The reason being is because I have logged into linux, and become the owner of the external hdd's. On the permission properties, I can see that the group I have created every other user under has "No Folder Access", and if I change this it reverts back instantly. So frustrating, I've tried to chmod it which hasn't done a thing. The owner of the external hdd's seems to be the only person who can access it over samba.Is there anyway I can get normal users to just read and write to external hdd's?

I have a USB stick, formatted as FAT32 and I assumed that everybody would be able to read from and write to it. However, I find that if more than one person is logged on to the machine (logged on locally, with "Switch User"), then only one of the users is allowed to write to the stick, and the other users are only allowed to read from it. Is that normal?
Here's the scenario: person A logs into the machine, is in the middle of something but gets called away and the screensaver kicks in. The screen is now locked. Person B comes to the machine to quickly copy a file onto a USB stick, doesn't know person A's password so does a "Switch User" and logs in as themselves. They plug in the stick, can read from it, but can't write to the stick at all. Permission denied.
By doing a "ls -l /media", person B can see that the stick is mounted but is owned by personA with permissions drwxr-xr-x . So only person A can write to the stick. I haven't done extensive testing but it seems to be the person who logged on first who gets to own the stick. It's certainly repeatable as described above. And it's really annoying, because unless person B knows the root password, he can't write to the stick. As a real last resort person B could reboot the computer but he doesn't know whether person A has any important stuff open or not.

There is a folder that is owned by user tomcat6: drwxr-xr-x 2 tomcat6 tomcat6 69632 2011-05-06 03:43 document. I want to allow another user (ruser) write permissions on document folder. The two users (tomcat6 and ruser) does not belong to same group. I have tried using setfacl: sudo setfacl -m u:ruser:rwx document
but this gives me setfacl: document: Operation not supported error.

I am developing a program that uses libusb-1.0 on a FC14 x64 system. I solved the compile and link issues, but I now have a problem with user privileges when I try to get device handles. The problem appears to be in the mounting of the usbfs. Is the an accepted fix to giving users read/write privileges for all usb devices?
