Subject: bug#53580: /var/run/shepherd/socket is missing on an otherwise functional system
Date: Thu, 27 Jan 2022 11:32:18 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <BNbiqHqu6jP5GgHIZ0AMLhBo1O4baZdy21bgcUmGS1GqxOKnCHG_5uzzedymxwQsSFtL5gSw9Bppr1FXPoHDqIiKfe5K720Wb9Jivbsr_z4=@lendvai.name> (raw)
the systems seems to work fine. Gnome is up, i can log in with my user, and everything seems to work, except herd.
i encounter this broken state every once in a while. IRC logs also mention this multiple times, but without many insights:
https://logs.guix.gnu.org/guix/search?query=%2Fvar%2Frun%2Fshepherd%2Fsocket
```
# herd status
error: connect: /var/run/shepherd/socket: No such file or directory
# ps afxu | grep shepherd
root 1 0.0 0.3 160788 43684 ? Sl 11:51 0:00 /gnu/store/cnfsv9ywaacyafkqdqsv2ry8f01yr7a9-guile-3.0.7/bin/guile --no-auto-compile /gnu/store/vza48khbaq0fdmcsrn27xj5y5yy76z6l-shepherd-0.8.1/bin/shepherd --config /gnu/store/q4nd803lxrlkr60s8sx88gvpb6c7lxyd-shepherd.conf
# uptime

```
looking at shepherd's code:
```
(define (call-with-server-socket file-name proc)
"Call PROC, passing it a listening socket at FILE-NAME and deleting the
socket file at FILE-NAME upon exit of PROC. Return the values of PROC."
(let ((sock (open-server-socket file-name)))
(dynamic-wind
noop
(lambda () (proc sock))
(lambda ()
(close sock)
(catch-system-error (delete-file file-name))))))
```
maybe this is caused by some call/cc magic that causes an unwind that deletes the file, but then continues?

“Above all, do not lose your desire to walk: Every day I walk myself into a state of well-being and walk away from every illness; I have walked myself into my best thoughts, and I know of no thought so burdensome that one cannot walk away from it.”
— Søren Kierkegaard (1813–1855)
