    Samba - memory leak

    Hi Everyone,

    I have been getting this message:
    Code:
    no talloc stackframe at ../source3/param/loadparm.c:4831, leaking memory
    On one real i386 Trusty server, and two i386 Trusty VMs.
    I found a debian bug report, which seems to suggest that this message is a Samba problem. I have been having other grief with my VM's, (they do not shutdown is the main issue), and I don't know if the issues are related. I haven't had this message on my 64 bit 14.04 VM, but I also haven't used it for several days.

    I was also getting these messages:
    Code:
    WARNING: The "idmap uid" option is deprecated
    WARNING: The "idmap gid" option is deprecated
    on the one i386 computer that I had updated from 13.10 to 14.04, but I got rid of them by converting my previous smb.conf file to the newer format (summary: the related lines are commented out now).

    I am just wondering if others, that use Samba, have seen this message?

    Edit: I brought my 14.04 64 bit VM up to date, and now it gives the same message.

    I have the same issue. When I launch commands in command line I get this message:
    Code:
    no talloc stackframe at ../source3/param/loadparm.c:4831, leaking memory
    I'm running Trusty 64bit

    I filed a bug report and it was linked to the upstream bug report and the iso testing tracker.
    Any follow-up information on your issue would be appreciated. Please have the courtesy to report back.

    Re: Samba - memory leak

    I get the same thing with sudo -i:

    $ sudo -i
    [sudo] password for grizzlysmit:
    no talloc stackframe at ../source3/param/loadparm.c:4864, leaking memory
    14:43:53 root@rakbat:~#
    I'm running Trusty 32 bit


    this fixes it:
    sudo apt-get remove libpam-smbpass
