In the logs I get

Thu Dec 18 07:00:31 2003 :: SIGSEG (Invalid memory Reference)
Thu Dec 18 07:00:31 2003 :: VoR Crashed
This is what gdb gives me

never ever seen that... also in comm.c where SIGSEG is grepped at it shows this
void sig_seg( int sig )
{
log_string("SIGSEG (Invalid memory Reference)");
tell_all( sig );
}
any ideas? | | Top |

| Something is going wrong with reading the area stonebow.are... the back trace doesn't seem to be terribly useful, so go through the functions that handle reading area files. It also seems that strcpy is called before the crash, so look for places where strcpy is called.
Perhaps the area file is corrupt somehow, or perhaps the code is broken, or both. :) |

| | One other thing to consider - the crash handler in that code might be boogering your results. I'd suggest at least disabling that code and trying again to see if you get a useful core from it. | | Top |
