Re: version 1773

2014-04-07 Thread Gavin Wraith
 So I deleted Choices:WWW.NetSurf quit and re-ran
 NetSurf and the problem went away.

By Jove, it works for me too. Actually I did not delete
all of Choices:WWW.NetSurf . Instead I created  
Choices:WWW.NetSurf.Cache by hand and that seemed to do the trick.
Maybe there is a buglet in
utils/filename.c filename_create_directory 524:
not overriding access permissions?

OK. I now have the Iyonix running a relatively clean boot from 30th
Mar, and RISC OS v. 5.21 30th Mar. Netsurf #1772 is now running fine
(that's the latest I have on the Iyo at the moment). Will download
and upgrade to #1774 (or later if available), and check that is ok as
well. A lot more stuff still to get back in to !Boot, so keeping
fingers crossed.

Whether I will ever find out what in !Boot was causing the problem I
doubt.

Anyway, thanks for the help, chaps, especially Ron for showing I

Now that is interesting - just tried to run !Packman on the Iyonix
and got the exact same crash and stackdump. Looks like it might be
something to do with SharedULib, although my version is 1.12 (5 Feb
2011). I cannot think what else NetSurf and Packman might have in
common.

BTW I am running SharedULib 2.13 here but It works with v2.12.

 Have you tried checking if the RAM is faulty?  It's amazing how bizarre
 the problems that faulty RAM can cause.

 As for the PSU, it was a serious suggestion: low or faulting voltages
 can cause any number of bizarre, reproducible, unreproducible, precise,
 and imprecise problems.

 So yes, they're things worth checking when you've run out of ideas for
 other things to check.

No I definitely think that is something to do with the ROOL 28th Mar 2014
!Boot. I have just tried my saved Boot of that download and Netsurf crashes,
back to my 30th Mar 2014 !Boot and all is well again.

I took a picture of the error box ;-). Thus.

I have shuffled about various !Boots and soft loads and find that I can use
NetSurf version 1773 on my 2014-03-26 !Boot with the  2014-03-28 5.21 soft
load.

I cannot run NetSurf version 1733 with the 2014-03-28 !Boot with or without
the soft load. This same problem seems to affect !PackMan as well and again
goes away if running my 2014-03-26 !Boot.

So I suspect that it is something that has changed in the latest !Boot.

I get the same behaviour with NetSurf version 1774, so I can only surmise that
something in the latest !Boot is making NetSurf throw a wobbly on my Iyo.

PackMan seems to be behaving itself now however, so I think that was an
aberration.

NetSurf version 1766 works with the latest !Boot and soft loaded ROM.

Thanks Rob. As you say nothing codewise. Even the makefile changes
are mainly formatting changes.

I'll check it out on the BeagleBoard first, then do some reboots on
the Iyonix to see if it is a clash with something else that is
running.

I'll have to note down the old-fashioned way what the stack dump is,
although the main part is:

Error - branch through zero, pc = fffc

and

UnixLib detected recursion of signal SIGSERV

Unfortunately nothing is being written to the log - log is the
previous one at a clean exit.
