Some Common Perforce Error

rajeshkumar created the topic: Some Common Perforce Error
Problem:

Perforce client error:
TCP send failed.
write: socket: Connection reset by peer

Solutions:
These issues occur only when perforce client and perforce server is not able to receive or sent data packets to each other. This can be due to various reason.
Check following…

1. Fix this file ownership problem of the repository. It should be same user by which p4d services has been re-started.
2. Please check network issues.

Problem

Perforce client error:
RpcTransport: partial message read
TCP receive failed.
read: socket: Connection reset by peer”

Solutions:
Connection reset be peer” generally suggests a network issue. this could be due to either misconfigured or faulty network hardware. OR An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host. This normally results if the peer application on the remote host is suddenly stopped, the host is rebooted, the host or remote network interface is disabled, or the remote host uses a hard close (see setsockopt for more information on the SO_LINGER option on the remote socket).

RpcTransport: partial message read
TCP receive failed.
read: socket: WSAECONNABORTED
Perforce::executePerforceCommand – Perforce command exited abnormally with error code 1!
error: RpcTransport: partial message read

Solution
1. Check if you have DOt extention files. Windows does not support “DOT” extension files so it could be releated to this.
2. Network drop out for few second may also cause issues.

Problem:
An issue with older Perforce Windows clients with an artificially low send window size would appear as:
rpc send receive errors, duplexing F/R 1249/0 in perforce.log

Solution: Clients need to be upgdraded

Problem: protected namespace – access denied

This means user is not assigned with access to the perforce or specific depot path

Error –
Large files integration using p4v somtime givs following error.
Error in change specification.
Can’t include file(s) not already opened.
Open new files with p4 add, p4 edit, etc.

Solution:
Post integration, you just fetch the changelist number and run over the command line.
p4 submit -c #changelost

or

try integrating using new clientspec

Error –
RpcTransport: partial message read
TCP receive exceeded maximum configured duration of 300 seconds.\

Answer
You’re getting this error because Perforce is trying to replay a @dv@ line (a database record to delete) when the expected database record is not present in the current state of the database that has been replayed so far.

Usually this is not necessary an issue as the end result is for this record not to be present in your database and as mentioned in the error, you can replay the journal using the -f flag (e,g, p4d -r offline_P4ROOT -jr -f /p4/1/checkpoints/p4_1.jnl.5453).

Although this error is not serious, it is not expected and I would like to check the integrity of your database from a logical database point of view. Could you run the following command:

p4d -r offline_P4ROOT -xx

Send the command output and the jnl.fix it will produce. Also send me line 216307 (a db.desc record) of /p4/1/checkpoints/p4_1.jnl.5453 for review.
