Re: PHP 4.0 Bug #9766: IRCG trouble

Wow, you are putting quite a lot of energy into this :-) > Perhaps I'm not compiling the stuff correctly.

Looks allright. If thttpd starts up, it is very unlikely that you did something wrong during building it. > On the Redhat 7.1 beta the GDB trace is somewhat more informative: > > #0 0x080ec730 in irc_cmd_RPL_NAMREPLY (conn=0x8186650, msg=0x4001a8f4) > at irc_dispatcher.c:189 > 189 ep = irc_locate_channel(conn, msg->para[2].c); [..] > (gdb) print *msg > $2 = {cmd = {c = 0x4001aa13 "353", len = 3, a = 4}, nickname = { [..] We are dereferencing a pointer in line 189, but that pointer seems to be valid. So, I don't see any reason why it would segfault at that point. As you are seeing this problem on multiple Linux installations, I'd recommened to use the install_ircg.sh script from http://schumann.cx/ircg/install_ircg.sh and set CFLAGS in line 19 to "-g". Also make sure that you don't have any old header files/libraries hanging around. - Sascha Experience IRCG http://schumann.cx/ http://schumann.cx/ircg
