Jim, I tried in on the command line, seems to be my case :)
However, I run aolserver on debian, via /etc/init.d/aolserver, Which basically invokes /usr/lib/aolserver4/bin/nsd. How do I make it use nstclsh instead of tclsh ? I don't see any options for that. Thanks, ~ Alex. On 11/1/06, Jim Davidson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
Hi, I think this is related to the comment I added to the RELEASE notes: * Loading libnsd into a tclsh and then creating new threads with the ns_thread command will result in a crash when those threads exit. The issues has to do with finalization of the async-cancel context used to support the new "ns_ictl cancel" feature. This bug is not present when using the "nstclsh" binary. The issue above, where Tcl is initialized before AOLserver by loading libnsd into tclsh, results in Tcl thread local storage being finalized before AOLserver's context which includes a pointer to an async handler. Now, that's not what you're doing here but perhaps TclX is having the same effect. I haven't looked at TclX for sometime so I can't recall what it would be using an async handler for -- perhaps you could dig through the code and comment it out as the async handler stuff was really designed for Unix signal-related things which aren't common in multi-threaded AOLserver. Alternatively, Tcl could be fixed to avoid freeing itself before AOLserver or any other extension. Unfortunately, that could be a big job -- the Tcl core is already riddled with a lot of code to try to manage the order of finalization. -Jim On Nov 1, 2006, at 5:35 PM, Zoran Vasiljevic wrote: > On 01.11.2006, at 23:27, Alex wrote: > >> Hi, >> >> I am getting yet another crash in AOLServer 4.5.0. >> This time it crashes after exiting from threads started with >> "ns_thread begin" or "ns_thread begindetached". >> >> Any Suggestions? >> >> Thanks, >> ~ Alex. >> >> Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault. >> [Switching to Thread 1086359904 (LWP 19612)] >> 0x00002aaaaae6c2a7 in Tcl_AsyncDelete (async=0x54e6c0) at >> /srv/DIST/tcl8.4.13/unix/../generic/tclAsync.c:297 >> 297 while (prevPtr->nextPtr != asyncPtr) { >> (gdb) back >> #0 0x00002aaaaae6c2a7 in Tcl_AsyncDelete (async=0x54e6c0) at >> /srv/DIST/tcl8.4.13/unix/../generic/tclAsync.c:297 >> #1 0x00002aaaad48190e in TclX_SelectInit () from /usr/lib/ >> libtclx8.4.so.1 > > I'm not sure TclX is thread-safe... > > Cheers > Zoran > > > -- > AOLserver - http://www.aolserver.com/ > > To Remove yourself from this list, simply send an email to > <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> with the > body of "SIGNOFF AOLSERVER" in the email message.
