segfault on ubuntu 14.04

When I start tilemill it crashes mostly with messages like:

Note: Unknown option "updatesVersion" in config file. Note: Unknown option "updatesTime" in config file. [tilemill] Error: child process: "core" failed with signal "SIGSEGV" [tilemill] Closing child process: core (pid:8983) [tilemill] Closing child process: tile (pid:8984) Exiting [tilemill]

however sometimes it works as expected. It also crashed when starting a mbtiles export:

This is all done using the osm-bright shore and coastline. nodejs is v0.10.28 tilemill is Version 0.10.2 (v0.10.1-293-g697c86c)

[diedricm]

it seems nodejs is segfaulting in v8::internal::String::isAsciiEqualTo()

You likely have a mismatch in node versions. I recommend installing TileMill master from source, which will work with Node v0.10.x
