Redirector adventures are going quite well - except when I tried to put in our new rocky 8 server into our test xroot cluster. It crashes on the http smoke test…
It is actually a little different then the old libmacaroon problems - the crash occurs when it gets to the second batch of tests (the TPC tests). The stack trace in the syslog also doesn’t mention libmacaroons at all.
This is xroot 5.4.3 on rocky 8.6
