Segfault when changing libs

[loviedovie]

Hi

I am on Debian 64

I get segfault when I change between libs. ' This happens when I change to a lib the second time. So I open C then change to a lib, no crash. Then I change back to the first one I get consistent crashes.

Here is something from strace. The debug mode did not give anything useful.

@loviedovie - try upgrading to latest version of calibre ==>> Download calibre and ensure all your PI's are latest too.

There were some changes in 2.10 that caused similar errors, the fix required changes to some PI's, see ==>> Calibre 2.10, Plugins, Shortcuts and Dynamic Menus

Hi

I am alrady using 2.12 and it looks like the plugins are updated

[BetterRed]

@loviedovie - it could be a manifestation of the same problem, the PIs that were changed was because they manifested the problem, not because of any exhaustive analysis of the structure or code of each every PI

Try running without any PI's, using the --ignore-plugins option see ==>> calibre command

If that works then you'll have to remove all PI's (don't worry you wont lose your PI settings - but to be safe backup your config directory) add them back one-by-one until you find the culprit and report the problem in its PI thread.

If ignoring all the plug-ins doesn't work I'm out of ideas, you can report a bug here ==>> Bugs : calibre

[loviedovie]

BetterRed disabling plugins solves it but I have just way to many plugins installed and not much time to waste on it. If anyone finds the offending plugin please post it here.

I will test couple plugins but it will take a while to figure this out which sux ;(

Btw here are some logs when Calibre starts up

Try enabling half of them, if it crashes, enable only half of those, etc -- should help narrow down problematic plugins.

You can post the list of plugins you use, for others' reference.

[BetterRed]

I have 19 installed PI's, to find out which were causing problems I uninstalled all of them, then installed them one by one until I found the culprits (30 minutes) - they were Open With and Reading List. Open With was tricky to find and apparently to fix - took Jim 2 attempts

Here's a list of my installed PI's

Barnes & Noble.zip
Beam Ebooks.zip
Count Pages.zip
EpubSplit.zip
Extract ISBN.zip
Favourites Menu.zip
FictionDB.zip
Find Duplicates.zip
Generate Cover.zip
Goodreads.zip
Import List.zip
Modify ePub.zip
Open With.zip
Quality Check.zip
Quick Preferences.zip
Reading List.zip
Resize Cover.zip
View Manager.zip
Walk Search History.zip

If you uninstall anything that's not in that list and you don't get the crash then that should narrow it down a bit.

These errors point toward the offending plugins, Save To Format and Recoll Full Text Search

Neither PI has been updated to be calibre 2.x compatible, see Stats for porting of calibre plugins to Qt 5.

@loviedovie - remove those two PIs, if stops the crashing and you need the PI's then you should post something with a link to this thread in the Save to Format and Recoll Full Text Search PI threads.

Ah-ha... I see PeterT has done some work on Save to Format, there's a version at the end of the PI thread waiting for someone to test it.

@loviedovie - I have a suspicion that the very latest fixed version hasn't been been put into the 'release machina' - it's here [GUI Plugin] Open With

Can you let us know if installing that version fixes your problem

BR

[loviedovie]

Hi

That did not do it for me. The issue back after I install it.

@loviedovie : bummer

As you've no doubt seen JimmXinu and I had very a similar problem with the Open With PI in Windows - which was fixed by JimmXinu. And he did update the 'official' version.

The only thing I can suggest is to close calibre and rename <wherever your config directory is>\plugins\Open With.json to *.json.save. See if the Segfault goes away, if its OK re-enter the Open With PI config details and test.

@loviedovie - in case you missed it, JimmXinu has posted this ===>>> [GUI Plugin] Open With - fix
