  34 <PRE>FreeBSD 4.2
  35 ircservices-4.5.43
  36
  37         I migrated from SIRV-2.7.0 (imported DBs using
  38 import-db +sirv /my/path/here
  39 )
  40 fairly successfully today, and services ran fine for most of the day.  I headed
  41 home, and when I logged back on, I noticed services were gone.  Logged
  42 into the shell and checked the logs, and the last entry was as follows:
  43
  44
  45 [Sep 17 17:12:05 2002] Received SIGHUP, restarting.
  46
  47         There was no corresponding RESTART command issued before this, and
  48 I can't imagine anyone would have issued a -HUP from the shell since I am
  49 the only one that uses it (I'm not naive enough to completely rule it out,
  50 of course).  When I restarted the services (unfortunately I didn't check
  51 the file sizes of the .db files first), the following were the first
  52 entries dumped to the services.log file:
  53
  54 [Sep 17 17:48:59 2002] Services 4.5.43 (compiled for ircd.dal Bahamut)
  55 starting up
  56 [Sep 17 17:49:00 2002] ChanServ: database load: Deleting founderless
  57 channel #7er_himmel
  58 [Sep 17 17:49:00 2002] ChanServ: database load: Deleting founderless
  59 channel #afl
  60 [Sep 17 17:49:00 2002] ChanServ: database load: Deleting founderless
  61 channel #Ai_no_Card
  62
  63         This went on for several lines, as numerous (dare I say all?)
  64 channels were deleted.  I have verified that the DBs are being updated
  65 every 15m (as per services.conf).  Essentially, apparently due to the
  66 seemingly rogue SIGHUP above, my dbs were completely wiped out (even MY
  67 nick was showing up as not registered afterwards, and I'd been using it
  68 all day).
  69         I searched the archives for a while and couldn't find anything
  70 similar, so figured I'd ask here.  Has any seen this type of behaviour
  71 before ?  Thanks in advance for any light which can be shed.
