1241449 - autolanddb (postgres) container hangs on exit, can not be killed

Status: RESOLVED INVALID

(MozReview Graveyard :: General, defect)

Description

[Dan Minor [:dminor]]

After a test run I sometimes end up with one or more autolanddb containers that can not be stopped or killed through docker. The postgres process within runs at 100% CPU and can not be killed through kill. The only solution is to hard reboot my laptop, as these unkillable processes prevent normal shutdown. Since they run at 100% CPU, the processes eventually accumulate and make my system unusable, at least for running the mozreview tests.

This problem really sounds like what is described at [1] - a problem with recent linux kernels and aufs, however applying the patch at [2] and rebuilding the aufs module does not seem to have fixed things, so maybe not.

I get failures stopping the bmodb mysql containers on boot2docker. Although not with 100% CPU AFAIK. I have to restart the vm to get them to clear.

I didn't have this problem with older versions of boot2docker / Docker. Sadness.
