On my side it's plain Node.js and strictly JavaScript modules. It started to happen when I started to close fs watchers on the way. Errors happen at random times, and when I tried to narrow it. I found out that they happen on calls to fs.writeFile (or other functions that do changes to file system), also it's not same Error that is thrown every time, basically there are many flavors of them, ones that happened:
Segmentation fault: 11 Bus error: 10 Error: write EBADF libev: ev_io_stop called with illegal fd (must stay constant after start!) pointer being freed was not allocated incorrect checksum for freed object It's impossible to narrow it down (I wanted to do it), I just reduce some number of (any) tests and it works ok, it's not bound to specific test, and as I said it started to happen when I started to close file watchers. Those tests also pass perfectly in any other environment (Linux, Windows). You may try it yourself ( I work on Node v0.8.6 installed from binary package): npm install git://github.com/medikoo/node-ext.git npm test On Friday, August 10, 2012 1:08:55 PM UTC+2, Ben Noordhuis wrote: > > On Fri, Aug 10, 2012 at 7:39 AM, Joshua Gross > <[email protected]<javascript:>> > wrote: > > Just upgraded to node 0.8.6 and I'm writing a suite of unit tests using > > Selenium and Webdriverjs - all that to say, I'm seeing this consistently > at > > the same point in my tests: > > > > DEBUG: node(39081,0x1027c9000) malloc: *** error for object 0x100617358: > > pointer being freed was not allocated > > *** set a breakpoint in malloc_error_break to debug > > > > That's in my server log.
