acme fails to start on some window Nt platform (possible active directory issue) #19

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago
What steps will reproduce the problem?

1. On some versions of XP (maybe active directory must be enabled) using
acme-sac 0.12 (or earlier, and inferno-os emu)
2. Start  acme.exe
3. wait ...

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

Acme-SAC should open. Instead nothing appears to happen. In the Task
manager it looks like acme.exe is slowly consuming memory. Eventually it
will run out of memory, and panic with an arena full message.

If I disable usesec in /sys/emu/Nt/devfs.c (that is set it to zero
everywhere its initialized) acme.exe starts fine. 

Is usesec on Nt really worth all the trouble?!

If you hit this problem you might try using
http://acme-sac.googlecode.com/files/nosec-acme.exe as a workaround. This 
acme.exe
build has usesec disabled.
