Category: None Group: None >Status: Pending Resolution: None Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: John Heiden (jheiden2) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: libssh2 core dumps under AIX 5.3 Initial Comment: Hi, Recently I found I need to transfer some files to remote sites. After researching, it seems that cURL and libssh2 are the only way I can go with this. So I built libssh2 and cURL as documented and things seemed to go well until I tried used cURL to SFTP a file to another server. It core dumps. Then I went back to libssh2 and did a make check, but that was smooth. So I tried the sftp and scp programs that come with libssh2, and both of those core dump as well. Let's see, this is under AIX 5.3.0.0, and I built it with GCC 4.2.4. Does anyone know of a fix or work around for this issue? If so, can somebody get back to me? Your help would be greatly appreciated. Sincerely John Heiden Unix Systems Admin.

Some common debugger names are gdb, db, and dbx. All you should need to figure out is how to run your program from the debugger then get a backtrace when it segfaults. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: John Heiden (jheiden2) Date: 2008-10-30 22:28 Message: I followed the doc and did a ./configure, then a make, then a make check, and finally a make install. Can you point me at some docs for doing what you suggest? I don't mind doing what you ask, but I am not familiar with the debuggers. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Dan Fandrich (dfandrich) Date: 2008-10-30 21:01 Message: What procedure did you use to compile? You'll have to narrow the problem further in order to get some help. Try running the test program under a debugger and find out exactly where the core dump occurs and what's causing it. You may need to enable debug support when compiling libssh2 in order to get the most benefit from the debugger. Also, try enabling libssh2 logging to help narrow it further. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=703942&aid=2210282&group_id=125852 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Open Source Business Conference (OSBC), March 24-25, 2009, San Francisco, CA -OSBC tackles the biggest issue in open source: Open Sourcing the Enterprise -Strategies to boost innovation and cut costs with open source participation -Receive a $600 discount off the registration fee with the source code: SFAD http://p.sf.net/sfu/XcvMzF8H _______________________________________________ libssh2-devel mailing list libssh2-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/libssh2-devel
