           Summary: segmentation fault on start up
           Product: digikam
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Fedora RPMs
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: crash
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: digikam-devel kde org
        ReportedBy: antonio.bulgheroni gmail com


Version:            (using KDE 3.5.8)
Installed from:    Fedora RPMs
OS:                Linux

Unfortunately I have very little to add. As soon as I type digikam from the konsole, I got the segmentation fault error. This is occuring both as normal user and as root.

I'm using a clean Fedora 8 installation and I've already tried to remove and re-install the digikam rpm several times but with no luck. digikam was used to work properly in the past (probably before I did some updates).

The rest of the system is working well and stable. I'm willing to provide any further information upon request.

Thanks for your help.

We definitively need more information to track this problem down:
a) which version of digikam are you using?
b) are there any messages on the konsole before the segmentation fault?
c) To really find the source of the problem, a proper backtrace is needed,
   See: http://www.digikam.org/?q=contrib under
   "If you are experiencing crashes with digiKam"
   However, to ensure a useful backtrace, one has to compile digikam
   with debugging information.
   Usually this is non-trivial for someone who has never installed
   software from source (but we can guide you through the build
   procedure on the users mailing list, if you want. See
   http://www.digikam.org/?q=download/svn under
   "Install digiKam in your Home Directory" for instructions).

  But maybe there are already rpm's with a debug build available for
  fedora?

Best, Arnd

Thanks Arnd for the fast reply.

Here you have your answer:

a) digikam-0.9.3-1.fc8
b) none
c) I'm a software developer, so no problem to install software from source... but I need some times to do it. I'll report on that as soon as possible.

Two more things:
i) what happens if you move your current image collection out
   of the way and start digikam again?
ii) which version of exiv2 is used (See "About" under digikam,
    if you get that far ;-), or which version of exiv2 is installed
    on your systems?

To check if the problem was somehow related with my image collection, I created a temporary new user (a completely empty home dir) and tried to run digikam. Same result!

I can't get the version of exiv2 clicking on About simply because I can't see any windows. But looking at the rpm package exiv2 should be 0.1.6

Thanks

Antonio,

if you run digiKam from a console, are you any debug messages ?

If you run digiKam into GDB, are you a suitable backtrace of the crash ?

Note : look in HACKING file for details...

This is all I get running digikam from the command line:

[toto localhost ~]$ digikam
Segmentation fault

this is for the debugger

I do believe that the binaries in the RPM were not build with debug symbols.

thanks

I don't know if it can be of any use, but also showfoto crashes while starting.

In this case Kcrash is able to catch the crashing and the debug info are attached.

you need to recompile digiKam with debug symbol. Bactrace  is not suitable...

I'm trying to install from source following the instruction available on the web site, but the digikam configure fails giving this error message:

...
checking if Qt needs -ljpeg... no
checking for rpath... yes
checking for KDE... libraries /usr/lib, headers /usr/include/kde
checking if UIC has KDE plugins available... no
configure: error:
you need to install kdelibs first.

If you did install kdelibs, then the Qt version that is picked up by
this configure is not the same version you used to compile kdelibs.
The Qt Plugin installed by kdelibs is *ONLY* loadable if it is the
_same Qt version_, compiled with the _same compiler_ and the same Qt
configuration settings.


Of course, kdelibs are installed on my system but I didn't compile them by self.
Is there a way to force the configure script to continue?

thanks

I'm using a fresh install of Fedora 8. All packages have been installed using RPMs.

Same crash here under Debian unstable - but I believe it is connected with GLX:

Last output before crash: Found dcraw version: 8.83

versions:

Qt: 3.3.8b
KDE: 3.5.9
digiKam: 0.9.3

exiv2: 0.16-4

Any hints? Mplayer has the same behaviour - so it might be a flaw in my personal installation.
