Slimproto / Server & Network Health Issue
Last modified: 2009-03-06 14:48:18 UTC
Created attachment 4886 [details] tcpdump packet capture of issue I have been running server 7.3.2 since it was released and server 7.3.1 and 7.3 before that. I have 2 squeezebox1s that have been running fine until today. While listening to an mp3 (wireless) in my local library, one of the sb1s rebooted mid track and went into a reboot loop. After restarting squeezecenter and resetting the sb1 the connection still seemed flaky. I tried hardwiring the sb1 to eliminate the wireless network but that did not work either. Following on a similar issue I read about in the forum, I tried running a server & network health test. The sb1 whether wired or wireless immediately showed several slimproto errors on the VFD and crashed, regardless of the test speed. slimproto error length 57c slimproto error length ff74 slimproto error length ff41 I then did a clean install of the squeezecenter 7.3.2 deb on my Ubuntu laptop and wired the problem sb1 with a crossover cable. The server and network test failed again with the same slimproto issue. I wiped 7.3.2 and installed 7.2.1 and the server and network test ran cleanly. So this seems to be a 7.3.x issue. I installed 7.3.2 again and turned on slimproto debugging. After starting the test, this is what appears in the server log: [09-03-04 21:29:19.0018] Slim::Player::Squeezebox::sendFrame (1041) sending squeezebox frame: i2cc, length: 0 [09-03-04 21:29:19.5872] Slim::Player::Squeezebox::sendFrame (1041) sending squeezebox frame: grfd, length: 562 [09-03-04 21:29:19.5886] Slim::Player::Squeezebox::sendFrame (1041) sending squeezebox frame: test, length: 1400 [09-03-04 21:29:19.5899] Slim::Player::Squeezebox::sendFrame (1041) sending squeezebox frame: test, length: 1400 [09-03-04 21:29:19.5925] Slim::Player::Squeezebox::sendFrame (1041) sending squeezebox frame: grfd, length: 562 [09-03-04 21:29:19.6256] Slim::Networking::Slimproto::client_readable (388) Slimproto frame: STAT, len: 29 [09-03-04 21:29:19.6265] Slim::Networking::Slimproto::_stat_handler (756) 00:04:20:05:60:8a: STAT-i2cc: fullness=0, output_fullness=-1, elapsed=-1.000 [09-03-04 21:29:19.6271] Slim::Networking::Slimproto::_stat_handler (783) 00:04:20:05:60:8a Squeezebox stream status: event_code: i2cc bytes_rec_H 0 bytes_rec_L 0 fullness: 0 (0%) bufferSize 229376 fullness 0 bytes_received 0 signal_strength: 65535 jiffies: 146308 voltage: [09-03-04 21:29:19.8912] Slim::Player::Squeezebox::sendFrame (1041) sending squeezebox frame: grfd, length: 562 [09-03-04 21:29:19.9403] Slim::Player::Squeezebox::sendFrame (1041) sending squeezebox frame: test, length: 1400 [09-03-04 21:29:20.1171] Slim::Player::Squeezebox::sendFrame (1041) sending squeezebox frame: test, length: 1400 [09-03-04 21:29:20.2931] Slim::Player::Squeezebox::sendFrame (1041) sending squeezebox frame: test, length: 1400 [09-03-04 21:29:20.4692] Slim::Player::Squeezebox::sendFrame (1041) sending squeezebox frame: test, length: 1400 [09-03-04 21:29:20.5924] Slim::Player::Squeezebox::sendFrame (1041) sending squeezebox frame: grfd, length: 562 [09-03-04 21:29:20.6050] Slim::Networking::Slimproto::client_readable (326) connection closed by peer in readable.

This issue is reproduceable. I've attached a tcpdump packet trace of a crash event to the report. Thanks for any help with this issue...
Hum sounds like sb1 does not support the new test frame that network health is now sending (it used to send a display frame to test the speed) Can you confirm the problem is with a graphics screeen sb1?
Yes, this is an sb1 with updated graphics display. If I remember right, the version printed on the circuit board was Squeezebox 3.1 I have no idea if the network health issue is related to my original problem, but I'd like to try and stress out the player so that I can see if this is a hardware issue or not.
I see the same issue on both the original SB1 with the character display and the SB1 with the graphic display also known as SBG. Selecting network test on a SLIMP3 results in "Not Supported on this Player" displayed on the screen.
Should be fixed in 7.3 change 25380.
