Re:meld crashing vnc on starting

The org.gnome.desktop.interface.gschema.xml is absent in your current install, and was present in your 
previous install - this is the reason that meld is crashing now.
Unfortunately I'm not gtk packaging/installation expert, the only thing I know - in debian this file is 
result of building this source package https://packages.debian.org/source/jessie/gsettings-desktop-schemas
Maybe you can just (fast&unsupported) copy this xml from previous install.

About Xvnc crash during meld start: It looks that your Xvnc binary lacks the debugging information.

What is exact package version it is? I think it can be found via
rpm -q --whatprovides /usr/bin/Xvnc

You have somehow to get debuginfo installed for Xvnc binary, maybe this helps after finding pa - 
https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/6/html/Developer_Guide/intro.debuginfo.html
(I think that you need install tigervnc-debuginfo, but i'm not sure)
Otherwise, you can try recompiling Xvnc from binaries with debug info and try to reproduce crash on it.
Note: the debugging symbols and the crash information from log must correspond to exactly same binary. So, if 
you recompile/reinstall binary - you need to get new crash information.

The result of addr2line for correctly found debug symbols expected to be some Xvnc's source filename and line 
number.

Hi Vasily,

Thanks for the suggestions.

I have the following in the current schema directory:
gschema.dtd
org.gnome.meld.gschema.xml
org.gtk.exampleapp.gschema.xml
org.gtk.Settings.Debug.gschema.xml
gschemas.compiled
org.gtk.Demo.gschema.xml
org.gtk.Settings.ColorChooser.gschema.xml
org.gtk.Settings.FileChooser.gschema.xml

And the following were in the previous installation schemas directory (which was 3 months ago - then I was 
able to invoke the tool, but the functionality was not working, as I installed the dependencies separately 
and so linking of some file failed. Hence I had to reinstall it again. And I see org.desktop.* xml files 
are there, I am not sure how I am missing those this time. Any idea?):
gschema.dtd org.gnome.desktop.enums.xml org.gnome.desktop.thumbnail-cache.gschema.xml
gschemas.compiled org.gnome.desktop.input-sources.gschema.xml org.gnome.desktop.thumbnailers.gschema.xml
org.gnome.desktop.a11y.applications.gschema.xml org.gnome.desktop.interface.gschema.xml 
org.gnome.desktop.wm.keybindings.gschema.xml
org.gnome.desktop.a11y.gschema.xml org.gnome.desktop.lockdown.gschema.xml 
org.gnome.desktop.wm.preferences.gschema.xml
org.gnome.desktop.a11y.keyboard.gschema.xml org.gnome.desktop.media-handling.gschema.xml 
org.gnome.meld.gschema.xml
org.gnome.desktop.a11y.magnifier.gschema.xml org.gnome.desktop.notifications.gschema.xml 
org.gnome.system.locale.gschema.xml
org.gnome.desktop.a11y.mouse.gschema.xml org.gnome.desktop.privacy.gschema.xml 
org.gnome.system.proxy.gschema.xml
org.gnome.desktop.app-folders.gschema.xml org.gnome.desktop.screensaver.gschema.xml org.gtk.Demo.gschema.xml
org.gnome.desktop.background.gschema.xml org.gnome.desktop.search-providers.gschema.xml 
org.gtk.exampleapp.gschema.xml
org.gnome.desktop.datetime.gschema.xml org.gnome.desktop.session.gschema.xml 
org.gtk.Settings.ColorChooser.gschema.xml
org.gnome.desktop.default-applications.gschema.xml org.gnome.desktop.sound.gschema.xml 
org.gtk.Settings.FileChooser.gschema.xml

Also the following is the output related Xvnc crash. p option, I had to remove, as it shows not recognized 
option:
$echo 0x0000000000799561 | addr2line -Cfie /usr/bin/Xvnc

Hi Jeevan.

I'm successfully using recent meld with gtk 3.18 and 3.20.
I think that 3.18 is the most tested with meld.

About meld crash: now I noticed that dump is created after SIGTRAP (not SIGSEGV), so it's for sure the 
problem with gsettings schemas: according to glib's gio/gsettings.c absence of schema is non-recoverable 
error that exits application with SIGTRAP and message like yours GLib-GIO-ERROR **: Settings schema 
'org.gnome.desktop.interface' is not installed.
So dumps are not needed. According to your SO topic 
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/35784566/meld-glib-gio-error-no-gsettings-schemas-are-installed-on-the-system
 you have set GSETTINGS_SCHEMA_DIR to some nfs path.
I think that for meld this directory must contain both org.gnome.meld.gschema.xml and 
org.gnome.desktop.interface.xml

About Xvnc crash during meld start: The instruction of crash is known from Jun 9 09:28:43 oulnxc53 kernel: 
Xvnc[18978]: segfault at 18 ip 0000000000799561 sp 00007fffdead6e50 error 4 in Xvnc[400000+542000] It seems 
to be at offset 0x399561 out of 0x542000 code section of Xvnc binary.

To minimally diagnose the issue further the exact code line of Xvnc (compiled/installed with debug symbols) 
is needed.
You can try to extract it with echo 0x0000000000799561 | addr2line -Cfipe /path/to/Xvnc

Hi,

I have decided to install meld again - both meld3.14.2 and meld3.16.0 in parallel.

Please let me know which gtk+ version, I should install. In the requirements, it is mentioned 3.14.
But nowhere it is mentioned if it can support higher.

Can I install or 3.14.8 or 3.14.15 or any version higher than 3.14.0?

Regards,
Jeevan.

Hi Vasily,

And besides, any ideas why the vnc was crashing in the other server?

Hi Vasily,

I tried to see the abrt dump.

I found the following messages:

Let me know how can I share you the whole ccpp directory. The compressed directory takes 11M.

If it is issue with the installation of gsettings-desktop-schemas, it might be due to the fact that I 
installed it from other machine. I will try to read about it and fix it. But kindly let me know if you 
already have any ideas.

Regards,
Jeevan.

As far as I can understand in one case vnc server crashes and in the other meld is crashing.

The message previous to "core dumped" says that meld crashing may be related to the problems with 
absence/bad install of "gsettings-desktop-schemas" package.

For both crashes the following information can be helpful:
Line from var log messages with basic crash information (like you give it for Xvnc) Exact package versions 
of crashed module (Xvnc binary for Xvnc crash, some gtk lib for meld crash I think).
Core dump that is created for meld.


Hi Team,

I have installed meld and when I try to invoke the meld binary, my vnc is crashing.

1.
First of all, I have installed this on NFS share, including the
dependencies like gtk etc., to be accessed across multiple machines
(having similar configuration)

OS: Redhat Linux 6.3

2.
I have not started the dbus yet (which is also installed on shared
NFS). The pid and lockfiles etc. however, installed locally (will
start it individually in each server to avoid conflict)

3.
So, I was starting meld without starting dbus. Could this be the reason for vnc crashing? The following 
are the errors, I see before the tool got crashing:

In VNC of server1 (from where I have done all the compilation and installation, the vnc is crashing here 
and shows the following error before crash):

* (meld:63603): WARNING **: Error retrieving accessibility bus
address: org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown: The name
org.a11y.Bus was not provided by any .service files

Gtk-Message: Failed to load module "canberra-gtk-module"

Gtk-Message: Failed to load module "canberra-gtk-module"

GLib-GIO-Message: Using the 'memory' GSettings backend. Your settings will not be saved or shared with 
other applications.

I see the following messages in /var/log/messages:

Jun 9 09:28:43 oulnxc53 kernel: Xvnc[18978]: segfault at 18 ip
0000000000799561 sp 00007fffdead6e50 error 4 in Xvnc[400000+542000]

Jun 9 09:28:43 oulnxc53 gnome-keyring-daemon[19064]: dbus failure

In VNC of server2 (I have not done installation here. It uses shared installation, the vnc is NOT 
crashing here. But tool unable to start and shows the following error):

Gtk-Message: Failed to load module "canberra-gtk-module"

Gtk-Message: Failed to load module "canberra-gtk-module"

GLib-GIO-Message: Using the 'memory' GSettings backend. Your settings will not be saved or shared with

The following are the installation directories:

bin etc include lib lib64 libexec sbin share var
