timeout in eppic.mk
 

Hi Dave
Â*
When I build crash, including the extension directory, I get a “Connection timeout� for the git clone command in eppic.mk. For some reason this command fails in my environment. As this timeout is 10 minutes I just wonder if it is possible to make some change in the make file to avoid this waiting time. I could of course remove the eppic extension but I want to make as few changes in the file structure for crash as possible.

I don't know if there's a git option that can be used here.
If you "ping code.google.com", does it fail?

I looked shortly for git options but I did not find any.
The ping command also fails (our firewall??)

If you can clone the repo somewhere on your local network you could play
/etc/hosts tricks to redirect the eppic.mk invocation to it to grab the
source and avoid the need to get out from your network.

OK, so perhaps a shell command can be shoehorned into eppic.mk
that does a "ping -c 1 code.google.com" and captures the return
status?

Or just manually copy the eppic git tree into the extensions subdirectory.
If the "eppic/applications/crash/eppic.c" already exists, the git operation
is not done.

Jan,

Can you try the attached patch to extensions/eppic.mk?

Thanks,

Thanks Dave, the patch works as intended for me. I now get a 10 sec timeout instead of the 10 min timeout I had before, followed by the message "failed to pull epic code .....".

Right, although I'm surprised that you have a 10 second timeout.

If I put in a valid name of a machine that I've shut down, the
"ping -c 1 <name>" only takes about 1 second to return a failure.

Anyway, I'll queue that change for crash-6.0.9.

Thanks,
Dave

Hi

I searched for information on this and it seems that the timeout is dependent on Linux installation. 10 sec seems also to be a not uncommon default timeout. If you want to set the timeout you can use the -W option.

ping -c 1 -W 1 code.google.com

will timeout after 1 sec for me.
