perfSONAR User Q&A and Other Discussion

[Victor Saez <>]

Hello again,

Hakan, thanks a lot for your answer, the solution worked yesterday, and I could make some tests through the perfSONARUI.

The thing is that suddenly the server is no longer performing tests, I always get the following error:

On the UI, when selecting the Measurement point, and checking the availability, everything seems to be fine, but I get the following error message:

Error (error.mp.bwctl) - [BWCTL Error:]

I've been capturing the messages exchanged, and this is the XML error message received from oppd:

*----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------*
:nmwg="nmwg" name="windowSize" value="15000"/><nmwg:parameter xmlns:nmwg="nmwg" name="interval" value="6"/></iperf:parameters>
    <nmwg:eventType>http://ggf.org/ns/nmwg/tools/iperf/2.0/</nmwg:eventType>
  </nmwg:metadata>

  <!-- triggers to indicate head of chains -->
  <nmwg:data id="1" metadataIdRef="iperf-metadata"/>


<nmwg:metadata id="return_iperf-metadata"><nmwg:eventType>error.mp.bwctl</nmwg:eventType></nmwg:metadata><nmwg:data metadataIdRef="return_iperf-metadata" id="data_return_iperf-metadata"><nmwgr:datum>BWCTL Error:</nmwgr:datum></nmwg:data></nmwg:message></soapenv:Body></soapenv:Envelope>

*----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------*

It looks like the problem might be between the oppd and bwctl, I've checked that bwctld is running, and I can perform bwctl tests from the console without errors, so I assume iperf is running ok. Could it be something with the bwctl limits?

Kind regards and thanks in advance.

Víctor

Hi Víctor,

you can use the 0.52 packages which are in the unstable repo. for this
please do the following steps:

  1. Remove the 0.51 with the following command:

     sudo apt-get remove --purge  perfsonar-oppd

  2. Delete if exist:

     sudo rm -rf /usr/lib/perfsonar/services/oppd/
     sudo rm /etc/oppd.conf

  3. Remove NMWG package with:

     sudo apt-get remove --purge libnmwg-perl

  4. Check if following entry exist in /etc/apt/sources.list

     deb http://downloads.perfsonar.eu/repositories/deb/ unstable main

  5. Install the 0.52 package with dependency:

     sudo apt-get install perfsonar-oppd-mp-bwctl/unstable

If the following message occur this is ok. It shows that the
