Crashing, can't figure out why..

[Superblue]

ioftpd version: Beta 4.6.1

operating system: windows xp (service pack1 installed)

services affected: all (ftp, telnet, http)

how-to reproduce bug: unknown


IOFTPD crashes and I get a windows error.. I'm not sure what is causing it.. here is what is written to the event log:

Faulting application ioftpd.exe, version 0.0.0.0, faulting module tcl84.dll, version 8.4.2.1, fault address 0x000964cb.

any suggestions ?

I have disabled my zipscript and my sitebot (dzsbot, zipscript-c) and also commented out the zipscript lines in my ioftpd.ini and it had no effect.

service_update is disabled, I am on static IP. I am sort of new to ioFTPD so if more info is needed from logs or something just tell me where to find it and I'll post it :)

added note.. ioftpd was working great until like a week ago.. nothing has been changed except for add/del users..

Which .iTCL scripts you have installed?

[Superblue]

args.itcl, premkd.itcl, showfile.itcl, newdir.itcl, banfile.itcl, newdirlog.itcl

other scripts:
ioA 0.7.4 (running)
iotrial (running)
dupedir (not running)

Put as much loggin on as you can.
Start DrWtsn32.exe fill in dump symbol table, dump all thread contexts, append to existing log file, visual notification, create crash dump file and set nyumber of instructions to at least 50.
If it crashes again then it is possible to find which routine causes the crsh and the cause can be found easier again.
And already check if you have a log file from dr watson with the last crash in there.

Here is the crash dump from last week.. it hasn't crashed since I changed the drwtsn config .. go figure..

well, I'm making reverse progress.. now instead of crashing, it just closes all by itself. Seems to happen whenever someone tries to up a file..

[darkone]

If possible, rar/zip your ioftpd directory (including ioftpd.exe/scripts etc) & email to darkone@ioftpd.com

This looks like an error in a timer routine if I am not mistaken. I bet dark0n3 can use this crashdump...

[Superblue]

Too large to email, sent you a PM where you can get it off the web.

i installed everything from scratch.. ioftpd 4.6.2u, ioA, and newdir is all I re-installed to it though, copied vfs, user and groups from old directory, edited new ioftpd.ini by hand, I'm still having the magic shutdown issue..

[darkone]

Tried your config with .exe that came with the package & debug version of the latest build.. both seemed to function perfectly :\ (No errors what-so-ever) I will do more intensive test runs later today, but atm. it looks like there might be something wrong with your windows installation (very old/dodgy versions of some runtime dlls perhaps)

[Superblue]

I got this one figured out. The zipscript was creating invalid symlinks and if you followed one the server would just shutdown/close/crash or whatever.. I still don't know what caused that divide by zero.. it only happened once.. I'll keep working on it..

[darkone]

Were those symlinks invalid or so? (Sounds odd that it caused server to crash...)

[Superblue]

i dunno what I did LOL.. i can send you my config file for zipscript-c if you want to look at it. I am now using iozs and it works fine..

[Zer0Racer]

My zipscript-c conf made ioFTPD crash cause I confed path for a symlink to non-existent dir/path (or something like that). If I try to set symlink manually to a non-existent path ioFTPD just replies No such file or directory.

[darkone]

Ahh.. so true (known issue), but it has been now fixed :)
