Bugzilla – Bug 1123
Server crashes (core dumps) on certain album

When attempting to display the detail of or play a certain album, slimserver (all the way up to and including the 2005-03-18 nightly build) crashes with a "Segmentation fault (core dumped)" message. slimserversql.db, an example track from that album, output from --d_http, and the output of gdb's "bt" command were provided to Dan Sully. OS is Linux, Mandrake 10.1.
Tracked (pun intended :-) down the one track causing the crash. Uploaded to Dan's ftp site. File named 08_por_qu.flac
Avi - I'm unable to reproduce this crash with the track you sent on any of the following systems: WinXP SP1, Debian Unstable, OSX 10.3.8 Do you have another system to try this on by any chance? Thanks.
No I don't, and I also no longer have the problem. I removed the album re-ripped and re-tagged it and now it works. But the strange thing is that bit-by-bit the old version and the new version were the same and yet it does not crash with the newly ripped tracks. Maybe removing the album from the database and re-adding it was the secret. I have no idea.
Heh. Ok. Marking as "Gremlins were in the computer". :)
