[Scons-users] Segmentation faults in scons-2.2.0

[Chris Irvine]

Here’s what I get.

 

 

$ scons -H

Memory fault (core dumped)

$ cd scratch

$ mkdir test

$ cd test

$ ll

total 8

0 drwxr-xr-x  1 Owner  None     0 Aug 15 18:58 .

8 drwxrwx---  1 Owner  None  4096 Aug 15 18:58 ..

$ scons -H

Memory fault (core dumped)

$ scons

Memory fault (core dumped)

$ scons --debug=pdb

Memory fault (core dumped)

 

 

Thanks

Hi Chris,

I wish to run Madagascar and I have python-2.6.2.3 running on my Interix 6.1
system.  Madagascar requires scons.  The Madagasscar configure script tried
to load scons automatically and failed to configure Madagascar.  I tried to
manually install scons using the python setup.py install command.  It seemed
to work with no error messages.  However, when I run scons, it always ends
with a segmentation error and a core dump (even with scons –c command).  As
well, I don’t see a file created named site_scons.

Any suggestions on how to narrow down the problem?  Are there ways to
analyze the core dump?


I'm sorry to hear that you seem to have trouble getting SCons to work
properly. Here are a few first suggestions to narrow down the problem a bit:

  1.) Does "scons -H" crash too?
  2.) What output do you get from "scons" when you call it in an empty
folder (no SConstruct, no files, no anything)?
  3.) SCons has a "--debug=pdb" option which re-runs it in the debugger. You
might get a backtrace there, and see in which
       module/method the segfault happens.

Best regards,

Dirk
