In the meantime I was able to confirm that the problem is within my
configuration folder. This is what I did:
1. Linphone was still crashing at every startup
2. I moved the folder "C:\Users\{user}\AppData\Roaming\Linphone" to the
Desktop (as Backup)
3. I started Linphone, et voila, no crashing anymore. Linphone created a
new configuration in the folder "C:\Users\{user}\AppData\Roaming\Linphone".
4. Now I can start and stop Linphone as much as I want, it doesn't crash
anymore.
5. Furthermore, I then copied the configuration file "linphonerc" from my
backup into the config folder and the issue is still gone, without having lost
my configuration.
In other words, the Problem was caused by one or more of the following files:
.linphone.ecstate
.linphone-call-history.db
.linphone-friends.db
.linphone-history.db
linphone-zidcache
No clue whether one of the DBs was corrupt or what else could have caused the
crash. The developers know the best where unhandled exceptions may occur. Would
be nice to have a "catch" around them ;-)

Subject: Linphone crashes at startup
Dear all,
I am having issues starting Linphone on my Windows 7 / 64bit machine. I'm using
the latest version and it crashes right at the beginning.
I have tried to uninstall and install it again, but the issue is still the
same. Please find attached the log file. The only suspicious message I see is
the following:
Error in connect: Bad file descriptor
The work-around I have found is the following:
1. Disable Internet Connection before starting Linphone (i.e. disable WiFi
in my case)
2. Start Linphone. If it still crashes, try again. On the second attempt
it always started successfully so far.
3. Enable Internet Connection again
It also happens, that Linphone will crash for example when pressing the Hangup
button to terminate a call.
I have read in older mailing lists that there was an issue with the DNS lookup.
Is this issue still present in the latest version?
As this issue appeared only a few days ago, I assume that there is something
wrong with my configuration. Any hint is welcome.
Best regards
Stefano
