[wxruby-users] Segmentation Fault.

[Christos Vasilakis]

Hi Alex,

Using your recommentation I tried the following:

First I have unistalled the wx-ruby gem

root at casper:/home/cvasilak/wxruby/wxruby2# gem uninstall wxruby
Successfully uninstalled wxruby-1.9.7-x86-linux

<<Take notice that is a fake version number I have previously installed 
from the svn trunk, I just used the same version number of the release 
to keep the "rake gem" happy. This is not the official release and *no* 
previous instances of the wxruby is installed in the system.>>

Then I tried to:

root at casper:/home/cvasilak/wxruby/wxruby2# ruby 
/home/cvasilak/helloworld.rb
/home/cvasilak/helloworld.rb:1:in `require': no such file to load -- wx 
(LoadError)
  from /home/cvasilak/helloworld.rb:1

Which is OK since the wxruby library is not installed in the system.

Then I tried to:

root at casper:/home/cvasilak/wxruby/wxruby2# ruby -I lib/ 
/home/cvasilak/helloworld.rb
/home/cvasilak/helloworld.rb:4: [BUG] Segmentation fault
ruby 1.8.6 (2007-09-24) [i486-linux]

Aborted

I tried the second example but this time I get a window but upon exit I 
receive the segmentation fault.

That's really weird because as you say I use the same configuration as 
yours(Ubuntu 8.04, 2.8.7 wxwidgets etc). I don't know if it helps but 
the only thing that I manually installed as far as ruby is concerned is 
the rubygem ver 1.2.0 because the rubygem package that comes with ubuntu 
is quite old(0.9.4)

Here is a list of gems installed in the system

root at casper:/home/cvasilak/wxruby/wxruby2# gem list --local

*** LOCAL GEMS ***

hoe (1.7.0)  (dependencies)
rake (0.8.1) (dependencies)
ruby-pg (0.7.9.2008.01.28) (for postgresql access)
rubyforge (1.0.0) (dependencies)
RubyRRDtool (0.6.0)  (for statistics using RRD technology)


Let me know if you need more information.

Christos


PS Tomorrow is a public holiday here in Greece and I would be out of 
office and home (I will be in my father's village with no net access) so 
If I don't answer you immediately, bear with me, I would be back on 
Saturday.
