8 years ago Hi,
Thanks a lot for reporting the problem and I apologise for the delayed response. I was traveling with little email access. So this issue looks like an optimization problem. I would need a stack trace to debug it. Can you please do the following and report back:
1) Install gdb (GNU Debugger) if not already installed 2) In the pcompress directory dump the file named "pcompress": cat ./pcompress
You should see something like this:
PC_PATH="/home/<your username>/pcompress"
LD_LIBRARY_PATH="${PC_PATH}"
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH
exec ${PC_PATH}/buildtmp/pcompress "$@"
Now set the same environment settings directly in your shell:
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH="/home/<your username>/pcompress"3) Load pcompress binary with gdb: gdb ./buildtmp/pcompress
You will see something line this (I am running Ubuntu):
GNU gdb (Ubuntu 7.7.1-0ubuntu5~14.04.2) 7.7.1
Copyright (C) 2014 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
....
....
Reading symbols from ./buildtmp/pcompress...(no debugging symbolsfound)...done. (gdb)
4) Run with the arguments that you would pass to pcompress:
(gdb) run
5) When the program crashes it will come back to "(gdb)" prompt. At that point run the bt command: (gdb) bt
Copy the output of bt command and send it to me.Hope you got all this :)
Regards, Moinak.
