Installation problems Dell M65

<< < (2/4) > >>

Ceniza:
SIGSEV? Nasty... really nasty.

Trying a version with debugging information would be the next step, but it seems the few that were released are not available to download anymore.

I'll just build you one and put the link here today so you can try it again (need to boot XP first).

Ceniza:
OK, I just uploaded it. Just go here and download both 7z files and do as if they were a nightly build. Run it again through GDB and, if it crashes, be sure to request the backtrace (bt) and paste it here.

Hi
Could you check the archive CodeBlocks-debug.7z - I have downloaded it twice and reinstalled 7zip I still get an invalid archive error when I try to extract it to my installation directory. wxmsw26u_gcc_custom.7z extracts fine.

Thanks

Ceniza:
I just downloaded it and extracted it with no problem, but with 7z 4.43. Please check you're using a recent version of 7z.

Just in case, the md5sum of that file is 7f33a29ecfcf34047301633888d40d23.

strickland:
Thanks for the md5sum. I was using 7z4.42 but the problem was with corrupted 7z file.

It seems the problem is related to the presence of wxvault.dll which is part of the Embassy Security Suite that comes installed on Dell Lap tops. Even though I have the TPM (trusted platform module) chip disabled the gdb traceback indicates the problem is caused by this dll. (I can post the traceback if you like). Apparently this dll breaks several other software packages.

I will uninstall the Security Suite and let you know if that solves the problem - won't get time to try this until this evening.

Thanks again for all your help - I never would have gotten this far without it.

Tom
