it might be related, it might not be related at all, but it looks like i've got a minor configuration problem on the build host i used to compile ioftpd 5.8.6r. i'm going to both move which build host i use for releases, as well as try to recreate this problem on an XP, SP2, english release of windows.

/me crosses fingers

If you need me to test some alpha/beta builds or whatever just let me know. Since I got the problem I can say right away if it is fixed.

... same here..

perhaps because some Script Issue? (I use current ioBanana & ioA)

Windows XP SP2, German, io as Service

deleting .ioftpd files didn't help.. no log entry... only a crash

5.8.5r works fine

Probebly not, I installed a clean install and got the same with the default commands.
So guess we will have to live with 5.8.5 for the time being. :9

Exactly we have to stick to 5.8.5 until this issue is fixed.
On my pc too io crashed with a clean install.

Now it would be good if you guys noted down the error address and see if they are the same. This way it is a lot eaier to track the bug.

as ive posted in the 5.8.6r bug thread, $args is being lost (on certain DELE file.txt) this could also be happening with other scripts/events

be nice if the scripters here took the time to debug and see if thats the case

[JoC]

Seems like site users and site groups works but all other commands internal or custom fails.
ioFTPD.exe crashed at offset 0002c092

I don't think this is caused by missing $args (it could be related, though) -- on my machine ioFTPD crashes for a simple TCL script like this:

PHP Code:

iputs "abcd" 


called with "site esmTest" when I have "esmTest = TCL ..\scripts\esmTest.itcl" in ioftpd.ini

On the other hand, an equally simple esmTest2.bat:

PHP Code:

@echo "abcd" 


works just fine

When io crashes, the exact error message is:

The exception Illegal Instruction
An attempt was made to execute an illegal instruction.
(0xc000001d) occurred in the application at location 0x0042c092

Good guess here It does indeed seem that both me and JoC experience the crash occuring in the same place... _panic_, does this tell you anything?

it does tell me that esmTest.itcl is a much easier way to recreate this problem!

this is very neat actually, since i should be able to add something like this to the regression framework, figure out what code is lurking at 0x0002c092 and zap what is likely a dangling pointer there.

thanks much, i'll get rolling on this!

esm, add the global args ; iputs "$args" to check IF $args is being lost, would be much easier to rule it out after testing it, than simply ignoring it and guessing it aint the problem cause it aint there

I would happily try the < global args ; iputs "$args" > script... but it crashes just like the other one ::shrug:: No idea how can I test if args are set up correctly.

The best I can do is try to access those from *.bat file:

PHP Code:

@echo 1: %1 2: %2 3: %3 4: %4 5: %5
@echo x: %FLAGS% %PWD% %USER% 


called as "site esmtest3bat aa bb cc" seems to work just fine:

PHP Code:

200-1: aa 2: bb 3: cc 4:  5:
200-x: 1MTH / ioFTPD
