Sorry about the csa_halt bug. It has been identified and fixed. We know that bug had nothing to do with the ja problem you mentioned.

To get around the csa_halt problem, please just recycle the csa
by doing "/etc/init.d/csa stop; /etc/init.d/csa start".

Thanks,
 - jay

Nope, there must be something else going on. We would need to know a lot more to help you. I guess we would need to start with kernel version and patches, job and csa userland versions, glibc version, and compiler version.

It will probably be easier to get a core dump and just issue 'where'.
That will probably be the best information.


Robin:
I do have job and csa set to run at boot-time, the pam.d files have been modified, jobtest runs successfully, and jstat does return a jid when I log in. I installed job and csa from sources, not from the rpm.


Oddly, I have just discovered a second error mode:

chicken04 root # /usr/sbin/csaswitch -c halt
/proc/csa ioctl failure, command='csa_halt'
  System Error(14): Bad address.
Unable to halt system accounting.
  System Error(14): Bad address.

As for system specs, I have reproduced the error with both a vanilla un-patched 2.4.26 kernel and the patched gentoo-sources 2.4.26 kernel. Glibc is 2.3.3. gcc is version 3.3.3. I am using job 1.4 and csa userland 2.2.0. For pagg and job I am using the 2.4.26-4 patches.

Thanks for your help so far. If there is anything else you want to know, please let me know.

Andy
