Traccar Device Freezing issue

Harshana Srimal5 months ago

I followed the guidelines and optimised the server. but I notice some of my devices are freezing. CPU and RAM usages are normal. tested using htop command.

The strange is when I restart MariaDB and the traccar service, It fix the issue. not only the issue, Now I see the missed positions as well. I face this issue most of the time. please help me.

I have 3500+ live devices.

Server : AWS r6g.2xlarge

ubuntu@Server1:~$ cat /proc/$(pidof java)/limits | grep "open files"

Any luck?

Check if server is accepting device connection at the time when this happens. Check if the port is open.

Harshana Srimal5 months ago

Thanks for the quick reply. Yes, I tested the port at that time and Its accepting the connections. I used telnet to test the port.

Do you see that in the logs?

Harshana Srimal5 months ago

Yes. here it is.

ubuntu@Server1:/opt/traccar/logs$ grep xxx.134.180.50 tracker-server.log
2024-07-17 13:16:32  INFO: [T999f6c85: gt06 < xxx.134.180.50] 68690d0a
2024-07-17 13:16:34  INFO: [T999f6c85: gt06 < xxx.134.180.50] fff4fffd06

xxx.134.180.50 is my current IP address

And the server is frozen currently?

Harshana Srimal5 months ago

As I restarted, yes now its working. But the log is from the frozen time.

Anton Tananaev5 months ago

But I said you have to check when it's frozen. What's the point of checking now? Obviously it's going to work.

Also get a jstack dump once it happens again.

Harshana Srimal5 months ago

The details and the log is from the frozen time. I will update here once its frozen again.

Harshana Srimal5 months ago

The server freezed again and htop says the resource usage is still normal. Here is the dump.

And what about port access when it was frozen?

Harshana Srimal5 months ago

port is working. I tried to access using telnet and I see the connection from the traccar log as well.

harshana@MacBook-Pro ~ % telnet s1.xxxxxxxxx.com 5023
Trying xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx...
Connected to s1.xxxxxxxxx.com.
