Title: Log msg flood
Post by: DLH on November 19, 2004, 05:36:44 PM

My log is continuously overflowing with following entry:
"Not sending SecIdentState Packet, because State is Zero"
Anyone know how to stop it ? I tried disabling Secure Ident, but it didn't make any difference.

Disable "verbose" in Preferences

Throwing the baby out with the bath water is one way to deal with it, I suppose. I'd like to be able to view the verbose log. This must be a bug of some sort. I've never seen this when running eMule.

well

what do you need the verbose log for?
its only helpfull for a developer...so what you need it?

and no its not a bug...but we have a lot more debug messages then emule has...and so it needs a freaking lot more cpu...

Dude, cut back on your caffeine intake. Beside the point, my linux distro started to fall apart already and I don't have hours to mess with it, so I won't have the problem anymore. Cheers!

DLH:
verbose mode is only intended for development and testing purposes. no message there has any intention to mean error, warning, or info. some may mean errors always, some may sometimes suppose an error and sometimes not. When new code has been added and it is very important, you'll find messages being displayed on every time that part of the code is accessed. it's for devs to keep a track on what aMule is doing without haveing to track a step by step execution.
Really: that message is NO bug at all. don't care about it. But it can't be removed for the moment since it is sometimes needed (for example, if a crash happens, knowing the state right after the crash might help).
Sorry if it bothers you, but improving the app goes first ;)

Greetings!

P.S.: "Dude, cut back on your caffeine intake." <- I don't see any offense in stefanero's post. We have to answer dozens of posts-per-hour and have a real life too. so sometimes posts can't be as gentle as we'd wish

Guys, have some sense of humor ! I didn't take any offense and meant to give none either. Whether I see a particular message or not, it's still generated in the background every 2-3 seconds, which - I suspected - led to high CPU  usage, explaining aMule's slow response. As far as my interest in the verbose log: I use it to track filtered IPs, corruption handling, A4AF activity, etc. Happy now ?
Of course I have to deal with Linux on Acid right now: the capricious Mandrake 10.0. I download some updates - my system fonts get corrupted; I re-boot - my mouse isn't detected anymore; I'm almost scared to boot it up to see more outrageous behavior.
Anyone cares to suggest a stable and user friendly distro ?

I really commited to take a permanent plunge into Linux this time, but it just doesn't seem to be mature quite enough for my needs. And yet I've been flirting with it for a few years, on and off. Some kind of love-hate arrangement,heh, heh

Peace and prosperity !  :))
