Segmentation fault #28

Open PigeonOnTheGate opened 3 years ago

PigeonOnTheGate commented 3 years ago

Thank you for fixing the my last issue. However, after I finally got around to updating easyabc to the latest version, the program no longer starts. It instead gives an error:

fluidsynth: warning: SDL2 not initialized, SDL2 audio driver won't be usable /usr/bin/easyabc: line 2: 9134 Segmentation fault (core dumped) python3 /usr/share/easyabc/easy_abc.py

Thank you very much for your help

jwdj commented 3 years ago

I am no Linux expert but are you using the latest version of libfluidsynth (2.1.5 I believe)? Have you installed jackd as described in using_EasyABC_in_Linux.txt: sudo apt install libfluidsynth2 fluid-soundfont-gm jackd

Hope this helps. Otherwise you will have to google for answers.

Thanks so much for the advice! I do have all of the above installed. Since this is a warning rather than an error, is there a way to make the program run in spite of it? I've noticed easyABC does start if I remove fluidsynth entirely, so if I'm unable to solve this, I'll just remove fluidsynth and use an external midi player.

After googling, I found someone who had a similar problem due to a missing line of code. Do you think the solution from there might work?

jwdj commented 3 years ago

Yes I found that page too, but that was about another matter: the warning about SDL2 not found used to be reported as an error. That issue was resolved as nowadays a warning is given when SDL2 is not available. But SDL2 is not the only way for FluidSynth to produce sound, so it should not be a concern. When I tested with VirtualBox I got the same warning, but not the Segmentation fault. What version of FluidSynth are you using? Have you installed a package? Or did you build from source?

I'm using FluidSynth 2.1.5, which I installed from a package. I have also tried setting FluidSynth's driver to JACK and ALSA, but strangely enough, the same warning and segmentation fault occur. I checked dependencies, and a number of packages depend on SDL2, including fluidsynth, python3-wxpython, and easyabc itself. Here are my fluidsynth settings, maybe I need to change something here for things to work?

I have just noticed that if I run fluidsynth in the terminal, a number of errors are shown, if I run it from the root, however, these errors do not occur. Could these be the cause of the segmentation fault?

The errors that fluidsynth was giving me were related to JACK, and I was able to fix them with this method , unfortunately, this did nothing to fix the segmentation fault with easyABC, so this is another dead end. In any case, running fluidsynth now gives this output

If you edit easy_abc.py you can find some commented code. If you remove the 6 # (see code below) it might give you some clues.

try:     import faulthandler  # pip install faulthandler     faulthandler.enable() except ImportError:     print('faulthandler not installed. Try: pip install faulthandler')     pass

But first you need to install a python-package named faulthandler. For python 2: pip install faulthandler For Python 3 pip3 install faulthandler

Then start EasyABC with: python3 easy_abc.py

You could experiment with putting the line in comment (put an # at the beginning) and see how that goes. Setting the gain is not essential so you could give it a try. | /usr/share/easyabc/fluidsynth.py| classSynth: # interface for the FluidSynth synthesizer definit(self, gain=0.2, samplerate=44100.0, bsize=64): self.settings = F.new_fluid_settings()         # self.setting_setnum('synth.gain', gain)

PigeonOnTheGate commented 3 years ago

Hi, I fiddled around with the code a bit, and tried commenting out the non-essential lines that would cause errors. Eventually I ended up with this:

class Synth: # interface for the FluidSynth synthesizer def init(self, gain=0.2, samplerate=44100.0, bsize=64): self.settings = F.new_fluid_settings()

self.setting_setnum('synth.gain', gain)

    # self.setting_setnum('synth.sample-rate', samplerate)
    # self.setting_setint('audio.period-size', bsize)
    # self.setting_setint('audio.periods', 2)
    self.synth = F.new_fluid_synth(self.settings)
    self.audio_driver = None

at this point, only essential lines were left, but these were still causing errors:

fluidsynth: warning: SDL2 not initialized, SDL2 audio driver won't be usable Fatal Python error: Segmentation fault

What seems so strange to me here is that the code is able to import the library (there is no import error), but attempting to inintialize fluidsynth causes the program to crash. I haven't been able to find anyone else having similar issues with fluidsynth, and I can't really tell if this is an issue with fluidsynth, the easyabc code, or if something is wrong in my settings.

PigeonOnTheGate commented 3 years ago

I think I may have found something in the fluidsynth api http://www.fluidsynth.org/api/audio_8h.html

When creating a settings instance with new_fluid_settings(), all audio drivers are initialized once. In the past this has caused segfaults and application crashes due to buggy soundcard drivers.

This could explain why the program would cause a segfault on my computer and not on yours, as we might have different audio drivers installed.

PigeonOnTheGate commented 3 years ago

from what I can gather here and here, it seems that when fluidsynth is initialized with new_fluid_settings(), it initializes all audio drivers. One of these audio drivers may segfault, causing fluidsynth to crash. It seems that the solution to this is to identify which driver is the culprit and exclude it by using the fluid_audio_driver_register() command.

jwdj commented 2 years ago

On Linux EasyABC now uses pulseaudio as audio driver for FluidSynth. Does that solve this issue perhaps?

PigeonOnTheGate commented 2 years ago

Thanks so much - trying it out right now. Should I leave the "midi player" field blank or put fluidsynth?

jwdj commented 2 years ago

To be able to use FluidSynth as audio player you should indeed leave the midi player field blank and select a sound font. Some good SoundFonts are freely available.

PigeonOnTheGate commented 2 years ago

When I leave the midi player field blank and select a soundfont, I still get a gstreamer error and no playback. If I press play, I get two pop-ups: one says "media playback error: Internal data stream error." and the other says "Unable to load /home/username/.EasyABC/cache/temp.midi: unsupported format?" I tried the workaround with jackd from here, but it gives the same exact result. Oddly enough, if I select fluidsynth as an external player, it works. Is there a way to get more info on those errors and why the program isn't working?

Thanks so much

jwdj commented 2 years ago

Since your FluidSynth is working as an external player you probably have done: sudo apt install libfluidsynth2 fluid-soundfont-gm The SoundFont is not used straight away. It requires a restart. If the fluidsynth library is found and the soundfont exists at startup then it should work. (it shows a warning if FluidSynth can't be loaded/found)

PigeonOnTheGate commented 2 years ago

Could be a library issue. My fluidsynth library is now called libfluidsynth3 after an update a few months ago. I'll try to see if I can downgrade it to libfluidsynth2.

Looking into this some more it seems that under ubuntu 22.04 python3.10 and libfluidsynth3:amd64 any access to the settings object created by: self.settings = F.new_fluid_settings()

robertmuth commented 2 years ago

inserting the stamza below got rid of the seg-fault

        # start of new code
        L = ["jack", "pulseaudio", None]
        arr = (c_char_p * len(L))()
        arr[:] = L
        F.fluid_audio_driver_register(arr)
        # end of new code
        self.settings = F.new_fluid_settings()

However, there is a new problem with Gstreamer that results in annoying alert-boxes:

My last problem could be solved by commenting out the lines like:

I can confirm this solution is working on Arch Linux and resolves the Seg Fault.
