game crashes? "DEBUG: Update for non-existant unit"

[eric235u]

hi all.  netpanzer has started crashing on me.  i join a game then almost immediately it crashes.  this is on fedora 7 x86_64.  i only use the fedora repository.  i've tried reinstalling several times and deleting all the .netpanzer files but no luck.  thanks for any tips.  here's the log file.

Hi, the "Update for non-existant unit" is not a problem, it can appear when you connects to a server and receive some sync message from a unit (tank) that still is not in your list, nothing to worry about.

About the error, i have check the code, and I think there is only one possibility to end the game like that:

There should be more messages in a normal shutdown of the game. My bet is that netpanzer is receiving a signal.

Open a terminal and run the game from it (i guess just run "netpanzer" or "netpanzer -g" to see debug messages), connect to a server and when the game exit, in the terminal window you should be able to see something like:

Received signal SIGHUP(1)
aborting and trying to shutdown.

Maybe in your case the signal name (SIGHUP) is different, i did this one by killing the game from another terminal.

Post here once you have this information.

btw, do you know how to/are you able to compile programs?

i can if necessary.

thanks again.

Of all the possible signals had to be THAT one. It going to be somewhat difficult because i don't have access to a 64 bit machine. I'm in process of installing another distro (centos), after that will put qemu into work (i think it can emulate 64 bit architecture) and install fedora 7 onto it, i need to use gdb to be able to 'see'.

One thing that could help is to run netpanzer in gdb and after the crash (yes this is a real crash) run 'bt' to get a backtrace and see which function creates the problem.

The information in your /proc/cpuinfo could be usefull (to know exactly what cpu is running).
The library version that netpanzer is linked is too useful maybe a "ldd `which netpanzer`" could get that information.

And i'm just thinking, maybe the netpanzer version you are using is compiled for 32 bit and causes the problem in 64 bit cpu? could you compile the game (from svn or from source package) and try again?

some quick compilation instructions:

Code:

# ./configure
# jam
# ./netpanzer

the last line will run netpanzer, you don't need to do a "jam install" and i never do.

if you download from svn you may need to do this first:

Code:

# sh autogen.sh
