Additional Information

Hi!, and thanks for taking the time to report an issue. Sorry to hear that you are experiencing troubles.

I don't see any segmentation faults when running the same command on a VM like yours (18.04 on WIn10 host):

tizonia --spotify-playlist "Discover Weekly"

tizonia exiting (OMX_ErrorInsufficientResources).

 [OMX.Aratelia.audio_source.spotify.pcm:port:0]
 [OMX_ErrorInsufficientResources]

This particular error is work-as-expected.

So sounds like perhaps something amiss with your environment or during the installation process?

Would you be able to re-run the install script and upload here the logs? In addition, it would also help to see the output of tizonia before the segfault.

Here's the full output of running the script again and trying to run tizonia with spotify:

Segmentation fault (core dumped)

Add username and password (password contains * and #) to config and set spotify.allow_explicit_tracks to true

I forgot to mention that characters like '#' are not currently handled correctly by the config parser. There is a bug open for this: #571. Not sure if this is related though (in my tests with passwords containing those characters the application never crashed). You could try and change the password temporarily and remove those characters (if that doesn't trouble you too much).

Otherwise, I would suggest to obtain the debug logs and upload them here (just drag the file) and I will have a look. For that, simply create the file $HOME/.log4crc and add the following to it:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<!DOCTYPE log4c SYSTEM "">

<log4c version="1.2.1">

    <config>
        <bufsize>0</bufsize>
        <debug level="2"/>
        <nocleanup>0</nocleanup>
        <reread>1</reread>
    </config>

        <category name="root" priority="trace" appender="tizlogfile" />

    <layout name="tiz" type="tiz_layout"/>
    <rollingpolicy name="tizrolling" type="sizewin" maxsize="10000000" maxnum="10" />
    <appender name="tizlogfile" type="rollingfile" logdir="/tmp" prefix="tizonia.log" layout="tiz" rollingpolicy="tizrolling" />
</log4c>

After that, re-run the application and drag the file /tmp/tizonia.log to this GitHub issue (make sure you remove your credentials from that file before uploading!)

Thanks!

Tried with password without special characters, but it still crashes :( Log file attached. tizonia.log.zip (only .zip was allowed)

@vaisov

Many thanks for uploading the logs.

This is a strange case. I can see in your logs that the last trace before the crash is this:

10-04-2019 09:08:56.805 - [PID:13643][TID:13643] [TRACE] [tiz.platform.rc] [tizrc.c:tiz_rcfile_get_value:742] --- Retrieving value for Key [spotify.allow_explicit_tracks] in section [tizonia]

When I run the same command on my system, I get this:

11-04-2019 11:02:13.278 - [PID:10733][TID:10733] [TRACE] [tiz.platform.rc] [tizrc.c:tiz_rcfile_get_value:742] --- Retrieving value for Key [spotify.allow_explicit_tracks] in section [tizonia]
11-04-2019 11:02:13.278 - [PID:10733][TID:10733] [TRACE] [tiz.play.playlist] [tizplaylist.cpp:playlist:158] --- first uri [Discover Weekly]
11-04-2019 11:02:13.278 - [PID:10733][TID:10733] [TRACE] [tiz.play.playlist] [tizplaylist.cpp:playlist:160] --- last list [Discover Weekly]

So I can't see any clear clues in there. I can only see that in your environment Tizonia encounters an issue and it crashes right after reading the configuration file.

So I'm still wondering if your environment has any issues:

0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 28 not upgraded.

Is there a reason why these packages are not upgraded? You can use sudo apt-get --dry-run upgrade to list the packages that would get upgraded (without actually doing it).

Another thing that might help is to see if your tizonia.conf file has any strange characters or content towards the end to the file. Would you be able to upload it here for me to try on my system? (please remember to remove your credentials).

Tried to update all packages, still crashes. Attaching config file. tizonia.conf.zip

Hi @vaisov !

Thanks a lot for uploading your config.

Indeed, the application crashes while parsing this config element :-)

spotify.allow_explicit_tracks = true (set to true to allow explicit tracks)

As expected, it does not crash when the extra content at the end is removed:

spotify.allow_explicit_tracks = true

The fix has been pushed to 'develop'. It will be released when v0.19.0 comes out.

Thanks again!

Hi!

Thanks, it works now after removing the contents after true!

I had 2 problems with the same behavior. One was my password contained %qm which seems to shoved "no such file or directory" into the middle of the password. The other issue was that when I uncommented the explicit tracks for spotify it caused a crash. So Cheers, it's working nicely now. Now looking for a shuffle option.

I had same Segmentation fault problem in Ubuntu 18.04 with snap, now solved thanks to this issue (I found it searching how to listen discover weekly).

Please, update snap package to solve this bug and thank you very much for your effort.

Hi @mrroot5!

Thanks for trying the software. That's appreciated.

Unfortunately, the snap package is taking too much of my time to maintain, given the number of other release tasks that I need to deal with during a release cycle.

I've been thinking about it for some time now and I would love it if someone from the community could step up and contribute with the maintenance of the Snap package. It is not a difficult task, it is just a matter of (free) time.

I will soon add a note asking for maintainers in the snap package repo: https://github.com/tizonia/tizonia-snap

Any help will be most welcome.

A call for maintainers has been added now to README.md on tizonia-snap:

Call For Maintainers
Unfortunately, the snap package is taking too much of my time to maintain, given the number of other release tasks that I need to deal with during a normal release cycle of Tizonia.

I've been thinking about it for some time now and I would love it if someone from the community wanted step up and contribute with the maintenance of the Tizonia Snap package in this repo. That would allow me to focus a bit more on features and less on packaging.

It is not a difficult task, it is just a matter of some (free) time.

There are lots of users (2500+) that use the Snap of Tizonia regularly and rely on this package to be up-to-date.

Any help would be most welcome.

Thanks!

Juan

I never develop a snap package, this could be a nice moment to try. I love tizonia and I removed spotify app from my Linux thanks to you.

@mrroot5

Really sorry for the delayed reply. If you would like to give it a try, that would be awesome!. I'm here to help, so please get in touch either via email (see juanrubio's commits in this repo), via the Gitter chat, or via the issue tracker on the snap repo.(https://github.com/tizonia/tizonia-snap).

I've written some notes on the snap repo, I think that would be a good place to start: https://github.com/tizonia/tizonia-snap/blob/master/PACKAGING.md

Wow, thanks for that packaging markdown. I need to do a little research before start :sweat_smile:

Can we use python C builder to compile that C source to python and then online use one language in snap? Quick search: https://docs.python.org/3/extending/building.html

Hope I could give it a try this weekend.

Actually, what we do in Tizonia is in fact the opposite, i.e. we embed the Python interpreter into the C/C++ application in order to extend it with Python extensions (as opposed to extending a Python application with C or C++ extensions).

Tizonia uses Boost.Python for the embedding of Python into the C/C++ application: https://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_66_0/libs/python/doc/html/index.html

The simplified view of Tizonia's arquitecture works more or less like this: tizonia player (C++) -> OpenMAX IL framework (plugins written in C) -> streaming proxy wrappers (C/C++ with Boost.Python) -> streaming proxies (Python) -> cloud services

Wow, thanks for that packaging markdown. I need to do a little research before start

Of course, there is always a learning curve.

I've been doing some work on the snapcraft.yaml, in order to bring it closer to version 0.21.0. I got as far as getting the snap to build using the new meson build system. I did not get a chance to run the snap but I believe it still needs more work to be able to get Tizonia to work correctly in the confined environment.

Please have a look at these changes in the develop branch when you have some time: https://github.com/tizonia/tizonia-snap/commits/develop
