Re: error : unable to register queue handler

[Duncan Godfrey]

I don't know if this will be of any help to you but I have these two 
scripts for inserting my Netfilter module called ker2...

You run the first one after you have (re)compiled the module and then 
the second one whenever you want to use it.

Duncan


#!/bin/sh
install -m 644 ker2.ko /lib/modules/`uname -r`/kernel/drivers/ker2.ko
/sbin/depmod -a

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


#!/bin/sh

/sbin/modprobe iptable_filter
/sbin/modprobe ip_queue
/sbin/modprobe ker2

error : unable to register queue handler

[Abhishek Misra]

hello,

I am having problem with inserting a module . It has compiled well but on
insertion (insmod) error message "failed to register queue handler" is
displayed.

the functiong call used is
nf_register_queue_handler(PF_INET,ipq_enquepacket,NULL);

i expect that the code is corect as it was working earlier . recently my
system had crashed and i had to reinstall linux. I have tried a lot with
kernel configuration (make menuconfig) but it did not help. 


please let me know to fix this.

Thank You
Abhishek Misra

There can be only one queue handler for each protocol. so the solution
is to make sure no other modules have registered. Most likely you
need to disable ip_queue.
