coredump during dump config

[mark lewis]

this new binkd2e-1.0a-607 that i'm running dumps core when running

binkd2e -d binkd.cfg

i have two include files at the very end of the cfg file and they come right
after my

defnode * -nr

entry... my previous binkd2 does not have this problem... the last line before
the core is "node" and then it poops on the sheets... i'm not even able to
redirect the output to a file other than the "core dumped" notice... nothing
that it has already processed and written to the screen makes it into the file
:(

i had thought there might be a line ending problem... my system uses CRLF and
the BINK.TXT distributed nodelist file is using only LF line endings... i
converted it to CRLF and tried again with the same failure...

has anyone else run into this? i'm pretty sure it has something to do with the
processing of the connections lists... either that or handling include files...
i dunno...

You might use gdb to check where it happens ...
gdb <core file>

(gdb) bt

... and send the output. I hope you've got gdb in your EMX installation.

ok, so i ran "binkd2e -d binkd.cfg" and it coredumped... that file is named
core so i ran "gdb core" and it told me this...

Did you already try to compile it?

i don't have the sources to try to compile from... for now i'm going to
continue looking for binaries already compiled and made available by the
"team"... i have to look back to find who the one or two are that make OS/2
binaries available and see if they have this 612 ready...

If you don't familiar with CVS, you can get the latest sources from Pavel's
FTP:
ftp://happy.kiev.ua/pub/fidosoft/mailer/binkd/snapshot/binkd-1.0.tar.gz

thanks, max... while i am familiar with CVS and git, i do not have those
facilities on my OS/2 box... thanks for the link :)

but for now, i think i'm still going to wait for releases to come down the
pipe... i thought there was a file distribution area for them but maybe
there's a problem with filenames being larger than 8.3... oh well...

Well, it's not too hard to install CVS.

i dunno... i've danced and danced and danced with it and git on winwhatever and
linux... after a day or two, i was finally able to get git working but then the
client side on winwhatever took another day or two... cvs still hasn't come
around...

and this OS/2 box in question is a production box that has been up and
operational with no changes other than jamnntpd, binkd and maybe one other FTN
package for over a decade... the whole install was initially done when Warp 3
Connect came out and it has not changed since then... i don't believe that i
want to muck about with it too much other than changing out a FTN exe every
once in a while ;)

Well, it seems you don't want to change too much. So you'll have to accept the
consequences. :)

thanks tommi... i'm not sure if i can get a FREQ thru my hybrid system...
everything starts on the frontdoor side and then that which needs to go via
binkp is specifically transfered over... i've never tried a freq thru that
maze...

however, i have logged into your bbs and i can only find binkd2e 1.0a-611 in
/pub/os2/comm/bbs... not -612... is there somewhere else i should be looking?
the above one is what a keyword search shows me...

The nightly version is only available by freq, it will appear in the bbs later,
twice a week if I remember correctly...

Anyway, please check your inbound. :)
