I am getting this message in my logs:


Jun 25 10:21:26 imac mDNSResponder[531]: queryrecord_result_callback: mDNS_Lock: Locking failure! mDNS_busy (1) != mDNS_reentrancy (0)

Jun 25 10:21:26 imac mDNSResponder[531]: queryrecord_result_callback: mDNS_Unlock: Locking failure! mDNS_busy (1) != mDNS_reentrancy (0)


My DNS server running on a CENTOS 6 box seems to be working fine, except for this message in the iMac.


Any ideas would be sincerely appreciated.


Environment:


iMac 24-inch, Early 2009 running Lion 10.7.4

This is an old topic, but I'm posting here so that if someone else does a Google search, they'll find the answer.


This behavior is most likely caused by the outbound firewall HandsOff!, in versions of OS X prior to 10.8.4.


I had this very same problem under 10.8.3, and was only able to stop it by uninstalling HandsOff!


After upgrading to 10.8.4, I re-installed HandsOff! to see if anything had changed.


Sure enough, the constant logging has stopped.
