Hello All
Thanks for reading this
XFBB 7.05g G0LGS m_filter
This is a follow up to my message sent in June 2014
LinFBB xfbb 7.05g
g0lgs m_filter not kill, holding messages detected as it did
with version xfbb 7.04L.
Now I think xfbbd is ignoring the exit return values
# Message Check complete / Tell XFBB to accept message
exit 0;
Hold = exit 3;
Kill = exit 1;
Not being actioned.
*****************************************************************************
KNOWN ISSUES from the xfbb Source 7.05g CHANGES file may be related
to the above issue.
- some functions are done via system() calls. However, observed return value
invariably -1 while it should reflect the result of called program.
When programming in another context system calls
I do have the right return values. For the moment I don't know why it is not
the case in FBB...
However a clue toward a solution could be to use a fork for system callHowever a clue toward a solution could be to use a fork for system calls.
*****************************************************************************
My current theory based on the above
1) Message received by GB7CIP xfbbd process
2) passed to Message Filter (m_filter) perl script
3) Message filter checks though message using the rules in the mfilter
configuration file.
Detects Good, Marks Held and Killed messages
4) Sends Messag4) Sends Messages to SysOp of actions taken (Held, Killed)
5) Message Filter Exit process returns exit value to xfbbd
# Message Check complete / Tell XFBB to accept message
exit 0;
Hold = exit 3; Hold Message
Kill = exit 1; Kill Message
XFBBD is ignoring these exit returned vaules
All messages are treated as accepted.
Is this part of the known issue as documented in the current CHANGES file
i.e. Ignoring retuned values.
I still need to help with this.
