Version 0.75 crashes 2 days after upgrade

Post by FloWil »

Hi!
I'm using XNViewMP for quite a while now. On Sep. 24th version 0.72 was upgraded to 0.75. This Version worked for 2 days. I tried to start it today and it crashed.
It also crashed on a different computer where it was updated 2 days ago also.

I'm using XNView on Manjaro/Arch Linux via the AUR, which downloads and uses the tar.gz-file from the xnview website.
If I start XNView from console I get this error message:
/usr/bin/xnviewmp: Zeile 5: 6535 Speicherzugriffsfehler (Speicherabzug geschrieben) "$dirname"/XnView "$@"
Sorry, for this German message :-)

I delete all files in ~/.xnviewmp and after that, ~/.xnviewmp itself, still crashing. (For all Windows User: the "only" directorys where XNvMP can change it's settings :-)
I also removed and reinstlled it - of course. One never knows :-)

Any Ideas?

I'm having the same problem and I'm also using Arch. Here are the full errors I get:

Fontconfig error: line 41759375: syntax error
Fontconfig error: Cannot load default config file
Fontconfig error: line 43397119: syntax error
Fontconfig error: Cannot load default config file
./xnview.sh: line 5: 10203 Segmentation fault (core dumped) "$dirname"/XnView "$@"

I have no idea what those fontconfig errors are but they change everytime I run the program. Plus, there's no way I have a config file with 40+ million lines. :)

Hi Pierre!
It's strange that the program ran for 2 days and is crashing ever since.
No changes where made to the system during these two days - except for installing 2 Bluetooth-components.

Thanks - Flo

Yeah, I've never managed to get 0.75 to launch. It always crashes on startup.

Maybe this is a driver issue. Is Xnview using any hardware accelerated graphics?

It's becoming more strange!

I have another machine (hp with nvidia NVS300card and nvidia driver - if it's due to graphics hardware), same as one of my machines at home. Only difference: I used the 64bit Version here and this one's running! At home, same hardware, I'm using the Linux 32bit version where it is not running anymore...

Maybe that helps a little

I'm using the 64-bit version with an old ATI card using the open source driver.

QT team to try

Code: Select all

export LIBGL_ALWAYS_SOFTWARE=1; ./xnview.sh

Hi Pierre!
would you mind compiling xnviewmp for 32bit too?

I would like to give it a try :-)

Thanks

I don't have time to do thorough testing right now but that seemed to work. The program started at least.
