Someone has mentioned on the list that turning caching on can help avoid crashes. Make sure you have LOGGINGLEVEL=2 to see all the actions executed. In addition to looking for a similar taf or action for each crash, note the number of active threads when a crash occurs.


We sometimes get crashes in OS X and it seems to be a threading issue. When most crashes occur, at least two threads are active and I haven't been able to identify any faulty action or taf.

Also, I believe that when a crash occurs, under certain circumstances, all log data may not be written to disk. You might miss a little at the end. I also think newer app servers than 054 are better about this. But I don't know for sure. I'm about to put 059 in production and will post to the list if it is clearly less crash-prone than previous versions.

Out of curiosity, what database and connection method are you using?

I was talking editor, not server. My apologies. Looks like something you might want to submit as a bug report to Witango as well.

I am guessing that you're trying to do something that is bringing the server to its knees. Is there any consistency in terms of when this crash occurs? (e.g., a particular TAF or particular type of activity)

Hi Dale,

Its the server which crashes, not the editor, did you have the same
issue with your server as well or your editor?

thanks,

I have had this problem (twice), and solved it by

1] killing my editor preferences
2] removing the dev studio receipt from /Library/Receipts
3] reinstalling the editor

Something got corrupted somewhere; I didn't bother tracking it down,
since the "start over" method works just fine.

Witango on osx seems to be crashing a lot with the following crash
entry and wondering if anyone else seen the following before:

OSX: 10.2.4
WITANGO: 5.0.1.054

Exception:  EXC_BAD_ACCESS (0x0001)
Codes:      KERN_INVALID_ADDRESS (0x0001) at 0x01483fff

Thread 0:
 #0   0x90042668 in semaphore_timedwait_signal_trap

other threads like above with same kind of error.

thanks,
Ezra
