RE: [Evolution] Evolution crashes when attempting to saveattachment



Uh,

Any *constructive* comments on that one ?
gdb sure isn't the cause for evolution crash ...

Thanks,

Romain

*shrug*

Sounds like your gdb is broken or something.

Hello,

Once again, I tried debugging again and again. I never could. 
After having
waited for like 2 minutes for gdb to output the bt for the 
thread, I have to
killev in order to regain control of my computer.
However, here's what I could get from it :

1 : gdb evolution -> run -> [crashing evo] -> Program received signal
SIGINT, Interrupt.
0x40ec4c74 in poll () from /lib/libc.so.6
thread apply all bt :
Thread 1 (Thread 1024 (LWP 32444)):
#0 0x40ec4c74 in poll () from /lib/libc.so.6
#1 0x40dcd734 in g_source_remove_by_funcs_user_data () from
/usr/lib/libglib-1.2.so.0
Cannot access memory at address 0xf

(ie exactly the same as last time)

Doing this and not killing evo (killev) quick enough resulted 
in a global
freeze of the system, for about 5 minutes. The bg tasks seem to 
be running
quite well though, for proof this mail is being sent from a 
MASQ'ed windows
host ...

2 : gdb evolution-mail -> run -> [runing then trying to 
crashing evo] unable
to crash ...
(meaning it works fine eh)

?!?!

I'm all ears,

Regards,
Romain

can you type:

"thread apply all bt"

at the gdb prompt and post what it says?

Thanks,

Jeff

Hi Jeff,

I'm baffled ...
I opened a shell for my regular user, launched "gdb
evolution-mail", ran it,
then ran evolution ...
and I was unable to reproduce the crash !?!

Then I ran "gdb evolution" and run, and was able to do it again :
Thread 1 (Thread 1024 (LWP 5669)):
#0 0x40ec3c74 in poll () from /lib/libc.so.6
#1 0x40dcc734 in g_source_remove_by_funcs_user_data () from
/usr/lib/libglib-1.2.so.0
Cannot access memory at address 0xf

And the program is still crashed, it's taking me hours to
launch killev...
I've waited like 5 whole minutes...
To answer previous posts, it shouldn't have anything to do with
IMAP/mbox
since every attachment causes the problem, either retrieved
from POP mail,
from local mail, or from data converted from Mozilla.
And I don't think it has anything to do with DNS since
everythign else is
working fine (I've had problems with sendmail & DNS in the
past, that's when
I fixed it ...)

Thanks for any lights,
Romain

Can you get a backtrace of the crash/hang in the
evolution-mail process?

There are instructions somewhere on 
http://support.ximian.com, just
search for "backtrace" in the knowledgebase.
