0001368: Kad firewalled - aMule Bug Tracker

Notes
(0002913) kubrick (reporter) 2008-08-13 23:26	The problem is still here in 2.2.2. I used tcpdump to check what's going on after bootstraping from known clients or downloading a fresh list from http://emule-inside.net/nodes.dat [^] : There are hundreds of packets sent but only a few (1 or 2%) replies. I sent some packets to my ports from outside my home network to check if my ports were properly forwarded : they are. In that "firewalled state" aMule doesn't find any source or file.

(0002953) Kry (manager) 2008-09-17 15:20	Works for me. I would review the firewall in mac, remember it digitally signs the applications and when you change it (i.e. if you overwrite it with a new version) and the signature is not updated, the firewall rules won't apply.

(0002988) kubrick (reporter) 2008-11-07 14:26	The firewall on my Mac is completely disabled and, as I told you, I checked if the ports were properly forwarded. I also tried with the gtoso's build on the forum it doesn't work. I tried it on my two Macs (10.4 & 10.5) and it doesn't work too.

(0002989) kubrick (reporter) 2008-11-07 14:30	I downgraded to 2.2.1 and now it works. So I'm sure there's a problem with 2.2.2.

(0002990) Wuischke (manager) 2008-11-07 19:57	Please review your firewall settings again, delete any existing aMule rules and create a new one. (Please do so, even if your firewall is disabled.) There's nothing we can do about this, this is most probably a local configuration issue.

(0003036) kubrick (reporter) 2009-01-06 23:13	Hello, Trust me it is the last time I re-open this bug. I still have the problem with 2.2.3. Please let me make some things clear : _I have NEVER activated the firewall on my Macs. _Tiger does NOT have an application-signature-based firewall _aMule 2.2.2 & 2.2.3 don't work (kad firewalled) on both my Leopard and Tiger Macs _aMule 2.2.1 works very well on the same machines with the same network configuration (I tried downgrading). Given these informations : _How could it be "a local configuration issue"? _Please tell me which informations you need in order to track that bug. I know I'm annoying. And I know I could be wrong, but I'm pretty sure there's a bug... Thanks. Kub.

(0003056) Wuischke (manager) 2009-01-17 22:14	I can't solve your problem, but the error message (last line in your log) is because you have no Kad contacts and therefore no client could be "pinged". (This will be tried every 15 seconds). Btw: Did you try loading a new nodes.dat? Well, the only thing which comes in my mind would be to diff 2.2.1 and 2.2.2 and see if there were any changes related to Kademlia or UDP sockets - would you be so kind as to give me a clue about possible sources of this error?

(0003064) kubrick (reporter) 2009-01-18 22:43 edited on: 2009-01-18 22:44	Hi, I still have no real clue of where the problem comes from but I noticed a strange thing that MAY be related. My local IP is 192.168.0.200. If, via the preferences, I try to bind specifically to that IP (and not 0.0.0.0), an error message is displayed saying that aMule where not able to bind to that address and port (TCP). Which is strange because netstat shows that nothing listen on that IP & port, and I can listen on that IP/port with socat without any problem... I added some traces in the code and I found that aMule seems to do things correctly but wx says it couldn't bind... Strange. As I have some skills in programming (it's my job after all...) and no one else seems to reproduce the problem, I'll try to spend some time on it. To answer your question Wuischke, as stated in my first message I did try to load a fresh nodes.dat. I'll keep you up-to-date on what I'll (not) find. modifié le : 01-18-09 22:44

(0003065) Wuischke (manager) 2009-01-21 19:30	I'm very glad you decided to have a look at this problem. Thank you. It's very hard to solve a problem you cannot reproduce - or as you have seen, even to recognize it as a problem and not merely a common issue with similar symptoms.
