This are the logs I get when I run cricket without debug mode enabled.

Also, interesting to note, that if I run cricket by hand in a shell, it
works fine.

Subject: Cricket crashing on network timeout

Hi Guys

I am using cricket 1.0.5 on Ubuntu edgy. It works really well but when I
have a network event which causes the SNMP to timeout, the polling dies,
which means the other appliances don’t get graphed until I notice and delete
the lock file, which really sucks when trying to debug why your network is
dead :P

Currently I am trying to graph about 20 devices, and using genRtrConfig to
generate the config files.

This is what I am seeing with debug enabled.

It almost looks like the SNMP lib is causing the problem but I have no idea
how to fix it.

root@acidmonkey:/var/log/cricket# dpkg -l | grep snmp
ii  libnet-snmp-perl             5.2.0-1                 Script SNMP
connections
ii  libsnmp-base                 5.2.2-5ubuntu1          NET SNMP (Simple
Network Management Protocol
ii  libsnmp-perl                 5.2.2-5ubuntu1          NET SNMP (Simple
Network Management Protocol
ii  libsnmp-session-perl         1.08-1                  Perl support for
accessing SNMP-aware device
ii  libsnmp9                     5.2.2-5ubuntu1          NET SNMP (Simple
Network Management Protocol
ii  snmp                         5.2.2-5ubuntu1          NET SNMP (Simple
Network Management Protocol

root@acidmonkey:/var/log/cricket# dpkg -l | grep cricket
ii  cricket                      1.0.5-4                 Program for
collection and display of time-s

Does anyone have any ideas on what could be causing this problem? I ran into
exactly the same problem with Ubuntu dapper, hence why I upgraded to edgy to
see if an upgrade in the SNMP libs would fix the problem.

Would appreciate any help!
