Python servers hang at startup when Ice.Trace is enabled

Reported by: spli Owned by: spli
Priority: minor Milestone: Unscheduled

Description

In an attempt to debug #8266 I wanted to enable Ice network tracing:

Add

      <property name="Ice.Trace.Protocol" value="1"/>
      <property name="Ice.Trace.Network" value="3"/>

to the <properties id="PythonServer"> section of etc/grid/templates.xml, and

          <property name="Ice.StdErr" value="${OMERO_LOGS}${server}-ice.err"/>
          <property name="Ice.StdOut" value="${OMERO_LOGS}${server}-ice.out"/>

to the <server-template id="ProcessorTemplate"> section.

The Processor server will fail to start on Debian 7 (Ice 3.4), but it does start on Mac OS X. I've added additional logging

def tmp_log(msg):
    with open('tmp.log', 'a') as f:
        f.write(msg + '\n')

to
lib/python/omero/util/__init__.py
lib/python/omero/processor.py
/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.7/Ice.py
and it appears to hang in the call to IcePy.Communicator in Ice.py initialize():

def initialize(args=None, data=None):
    communicator = IcePy.Communicator(args, data)
    return CommunicatorI(communicator)

IcePy is a C++ python extension ...

After adding some quick and dirty additional logging to the C++ libraries:

include <cstdio>
static void tmpLog(const char* file, const int line, const char* func, const ch\
ar* message = "")
{
    FILE *f = fopen("tmp-ice-cpy.log", "a");
    fprintf(f, "%s:%d:%s %s\n", file, line, func, message);
    fclose(f);
}
#define TMPLOGF tmpLog(__FILE__, __LINE__, __func__);

it looks like it hangs in

Initialize.cpp: initialize()
  Instance.cpp: finishSetup()
    Instance.cpp: getAdmin()
      Locator.cpp: getRegistry()
        Outgoing.cpp: invoke()

and that's as far as I've got.

Note these files are auto-generated as part of the zeroc-ice 3.4 build process. <<<<<<<< indicates the last good log message (i.e. I think it hangs in the following line).
