    After upgrading my agent from 1.2.10 to 1.2.12 I get a buffer overflow when trying to start the service. 

    Here's the error...

    [root@netxms ~]# service nxagentd start
    Starting nxagentd: *** buffer overflow detected ***: nxagentd terminated

    MasterServers = localhost
    #
    # ListenPort
    #
    # Defines the port number for the agent to listen on incoming connections.
    # Default values is 4700
    #
    # Examples:
    # ListenPort = 4700
    
    #
    # LogFile
    #
    # Agent's log file. To write log to syslog (or Event Log on Windows),
    # use {syslog} as file name.
    #
    # Examples:
    LogFile = {syslog}
    # LogFile = /var/log/nxagentd.log
    
    #
    # RequireAuthentication
    #
    # If set to "yes", host connected to agent have to provide correct shared
    # secret before issuing any command. Default value is "no".
    #
    # Example:
    # RequireAuthentication = no
    RequireAuthentication = yes
    #
    # RequireEncryption
    #
    # If set to "yes", host connected to agent will be forced to use encryption,
    # and if encryption is not supported by remote host, connection will be
    # dropped. Default value is "no". This parameter has no effect if agent
    # was compiled without encryption support.
    #
    # Example:
    # RequireEncryption = no
    RequireEncryption = yes
    #
    # EnabledCiphers
    #
    # Control what ciphers agent can use for connection encryption. Value for
    # this parameter is a cipher code. To enable more than one cipher, they
    # codes should be added. By default, all possible ciphers are enabled.
    #
    # Possible cipher codes:
    #       1  =  AES-256
    #       2  =  BLOWFISH
    #       4  =  IDEA
    #       8  =  Triple DES
    #
    # Example (enable AES-256 and IDEA):
    # EnabledCiphers = 5
    
    #
    # SharedSecret
    #
    # Agent's shared secret. Used only if RequireAuthentication set to "yes".
    #
    # Example:
    # SharedSecret = secret
    SharedSecret = xxxxxxxx
    #
    # MaxSessions
    #
    # Maximum number of simultaneous communication sessions. Possible value can
    # be in range from 2 to 1024. Default value is 32.
    #
    # Example:
    # MaxSessions = 32
    
    #
    # SessionIdleTimeout
    #
    # Communication session's idle timeout in seconds. If agent will not receive
    # any command from peer within specified timeout, session will be closed.
    # Default value is 60 seconds.
    #
    # Example:
    # SessionIdleTimeout = 60
    
    #
    # FileStore
    #
    # Directory to be used for storing files uploaded by installation server(s).
    #
    # Example:
    # FileStore = /var/lib/netxms
    
    #
    # TimeOut
    #
    # GET request timeout in seconds. If GET request cannot be completed for
    # specified amount of time, agent will return an error to server.
    # Default value is 5 seconds.
    #
    # Example:
    # TimeOut = 5
    
    #
    # StartupDelay
    #
    # Number of seconds agent should wait on startup before start servicing
    # requests. This parameter can be useful to prevent false reports about
    # missing processes or failed services just after monitored system startup.
    # Default value is 0, i.e. no startup delay.
    #
    # Example:
    # StartupDelay = 0
    
    #
    # PlatformSuffix
    #
    # String to be added as suffix to value of System.PlatformName parameter.
    #
    # Example:
    # PlatformSuffix = dbg
    
    #
    # EnableSubagentAutoload
    #
    # Enable or disable autoloading of platform subagent(s).
    # Default value is "yes".
    #
    # Example:
    # EnableSubagentAutoload = yes
    
    #
    # EnableProxy
    #
    # Allow requests forwarding
    # Default value is "no"
    #
    # Example:
    # EnableProxy = no
    
    #
    # EnableSNMPProxy
    #
    # Allow SNMP requests forwarding
    # Default value is "no"
    #
    # Example:
    # EnableSNMPProxy = no
    
    #
    # SubAgent
    #
    # Subagent to load. To load multiple subagents, you should use multiple
    # SubAgent parameters. Subagents will be loaded in the same order as they
    # appears in configuration file.
    #
    # UNIX example:
    # SubAgent = [path_to_netxms_install_dir]/lib/libnsm_linux.so
    #
    # Windows example:
    # SubAgent = winperf.nsm
    SubAgent = /usr/lib64/libnsm_ecs.so
    SubAgent = /usr/lib64/libnsm_linux.so
    SubAgent = /usr/lib64/libnsm_logwatch.so
    SubAgent = /usr/lib64/libnsm_odbcquery.so
    SubAgent = /usr/lib64/libnsm_ping.so
    SubAgent = /usr/lib64/libnsm_portcheck.so
    SubAgent = /usr/lib64/libnsm_sms.so
    #SubAgent = /usr/lib64/libnsm_ups.so
    #
    # ExternalParameter
    #
    # Add parameter handled by external command. To add multiple parameters, you
    # should use multiple ExternalParameter entries. Please note that on Windows
    # agent uses system process execution API for execution of specified
    # command, so you cannot use pipes or shell commands. If you need to
    # execute command via shell, use ExternalParameterShellExec instead.
    #
    # Syntax:
    # ExternalParameter = <parameter_name>:<command_line>
    # If you specify parameter name as "name(*)", then you can use $1 .. $9 in
    # command line to substitute actual arguments passed from server.
    #
    # Examples:
    # ExternalParameter = Test:echo test
    # ExternalParameter = LineCount(*):cat $1 | wc -l
    # ExternalParameter = Test2(*):myprog $1 $2
    
    #
    # ExternalParameterShellExec
    #
    # Add parameter handled by external command. To add multiple parameters, you
    # should use multiple ExternalParameterShellExec entries. This is similar
    # to ExternalParameter with exception that agent will use shell to execute
    # specified command instead of system process exeution API. This difference
    # presented only on Windows system, on other systems ExternalParameter and
    # ExternalParameterShellExec behaves identically.
    #
    # Syntax:
    # ExternalParameterShellExec = <parameter_name>:<command_line>
    # If you specify parameter name as "name(*)", then you can use $1 .. $9 in
    # command line to substitute actual arguments passed from server.
    #
    # Examples:
    # ExternalParameterShellExec = Test:dir c:\ | wc -l

      Hi!

      As it looks like you have core file from the crash, can you please send me backtrace obtained with gdb. Instruction is following:

      1. Run gdb as

      gdb /usr/bin/nxagentd core

      (replace core with actual core file location)

      1. At (gdb) prompt, enter command bt

      Best regards,
      Victor

        What's the best way to get the core file?  can i just echo "<file location>" > /proc/sys/kernel/core_pattern ?

            Can you please also run agent as

            nxagentd -D9

            and end me the output?

              same result, output attached

              EDIT: i guess it would help if i saved the file before attaching it


              agent with debug.txt

                Looks like it's crashed even before agent completes initialization. Can you try to set log file to a file instead of syslog? Also, on what system you are running it?

                Best regards,
                Victor

                  I set logging to go to /var/log/nxagentd.log and tried running it with the -D9 option again, but i'm running it as root and the log file still doesn't exist

                  [root@netxms ~]# cat /etc/redhat-release

                    Don't have CentOS 6.5 for testing at the moment, will try it tomorrow. How did you build agent (with what configure options)?

                        Hi!

                        Try to add --disable-xmpp just in case.

                          Ok, i'm building now.  I was under the impression it was just the server that used the XMPP library?

                          EDIT: Same result

                                I've fixed the problem. Version 1.2.13 will work correctly.

                                  I don't know if this might warrant a new thread, but i'm having the same (or appears the same) issue when trying to install 1.2.13 agents.  I ran it with strace, thought it might help, the output is attached.

                                    Sorry, due to mistake fix for this bug didn't get to release. I'll repack source code package with fix included. I can also repack deb packages if someone uses them on Ubuntu.

                                        I don't know if this is the same issue, but nxagentd still doesn't start after upgrade. nxagent -D9 in the attachment. My system is Ubuntu 12.04.
