segfaulting after a minute

[gapresse]

This is the start of a long debugging process I think...

The problem is that my server is segfaulting after some time. Longest time so far is 4:31, I'm hoping to break the 5 minute mark one day.

Running this on a fresh Slackware 10.2 installation.
It was running fine with default config file. My setup needs multiple config files for multiple servers. So I load the global config and then set the password, portbase and unique identifier in the config file:

code:
~ $ cat /configs/conf.alex

; Load global settings first

Include=/home/radio/configs/global.conf



; Unique identifier, used by the global.conf file

Unique=alex



; Password - Required to broadcast and for web admin

; CANNOT BE BLANK!

; For this site, each DJ gets their own password, web admin

; password is set in global.conf

Password=shoutpass



; PortBase - The port to listen on.

; This sets up 2 ports, n and n+1 for listening.

; I'll be using 2000 and higher

PortBase=2000

I call it like this: sc_serv ./configs/conf.alex

The only thing I've changed in the global config is logfile paths, adminpassword, and maxuser (512)

Why does it play for a couple of minutes and then decide to segfault rather than segfault immediatly?

--edit: paths to config files

Ok, I moved the config files to the home directory.
Now it doesnt segfault until the DNAS connects

code:


<10/29/05@18:02:08> [source] listening for connection on port 2001

<10/29/05@18:02:08> [main] client main thread starting

<10/29/05@18:02:20> [source] connected from 192.168.0.3

<10/29/05@18:02:20> [source] icy-name:Fleming Radio - Experience Music ; icy-genre:everything

<10/29/05@18:02:20> [source] icy-irc: ; icy-icq: ; icy-aim:

Segmentation fault

This is weird..

this sounds like a ownership problem of the logfiles, perhaps you started the server as root first time ? and now are a different user ?

delete the log files ( as root ), change to the user you are running the server as, try again.
