countless errors in syslog since 6.0.1.0 upgrade

JesseR — Mon, 29 Jul 2013 15:33:12 GMT

My syslog basically looks like this with thousands of errors in it. (syslog grows to about 700MB each day cause of this stuff).

This is just a SMALL random sampling. Prior, on 5.7.3.0, we did not experience these errors. Anyone seen anything like this before? My APs are all on the same VLAN as the MSM controller and the same VLAN as the DHCP server. The Aps are working right now, but just sending out constant messages to syslog ...

Same here. Upgraded from 5.7.2 to 6.0.1 and things were just screwed. Member 2 of the team couldn't handle any access points, the web interface was not working correctly in Chrome (yes, I had cleared the cache) and syslog just went completely nuts spewing out error messages.

Between this and the "oh, our software can destroy your APs' flash memory. Better not use it" failure, one wonders: Do you guys even test what you put out to customers?

Went back down to 5.7.2 and then up to 5.7.3. This seems stable.
