gnome-keyring-daemon fills syslog and auth.log
by akinadom from LinuxQuestions.org on (#5RN3A)
This is a reboot of https://www.linuxquestions.org/quest...og-4175678088/ , which is marked as solved but doesn't solve the issue/find the cause. A parallel I can find is that I am running a TurboVNC server on that machine. Killing the server once the spamming starts isn't changing anything.
I'm getting this line spammed to my syslog and auth.log at a rate of around 60k times/second after some (seemingly random) amount of uptime of the machine:
Code:gnome-keyring-daemon[PID]: couldn't accept new control request: Too many open fileskilling gnome-keyring-daemon or rebooting temporarily resolve the issue, until it starts after a couple of days of uptime again. If it helps, Code:sudo lsof | head -1 | awk '{ print "COUNT " $2 " " $1; }' && sudo lsof +c 0 | awk '{ print $2 " " $1; }' | sort -rn | uniq -c | sort -rn | head -20shows 4200 open files for the keyring if it starts spamming the logs.
Code:lsb_release -a
