Problem with mondoarchive

[Dende]

When mondoarchive begin to make catalog at 40% i receive the following error message:

* glibc detected * realloc(): invalid next size SIGABRT signal received from OS Abort - probably failed assertion. I'm sleeping for a few seconds

This error ocurred with gui and without gui

My system specs:

Could you update your mindi and mondo version to 1.0.9-2 and 2.0.9-2 respectively ? Andree has made updates for etch that could solve your issue.

I try it but it give me the following error message:

Checking sanity of your Linux distribution
Mindi --makemountlist /tmp/mountlist.txt.test failed for some reason.
Please run that command by hand and examine /var/log/mindi.log
for more information. Perhaps your /etc/fstab file is insane.
Perhaps Mindi's MakeMountlist() subroutine has a bug. We'll see.

As said:

"The list's members can help you, if you attach that file to your e-mail."

We need : /var/log/mondo-archive.log /var/log/mindi.log /tmp/MA.log.gz

And do what is written: Mindi --makemountlist /tmp/mountlist.txt.test failed for some reason. Please run that command by hand and examine /var/log/mindi.log for more information.

Try adding libfribidi0 package to your distro. It fixes generaly the error on Debian (Cf: http://trac.mondorescue.org/wiki/FAQ Q14)

[Bruno Cornec]

Could you report back if you still have the issue please ? Could you use the latest 2.2.1 version of mondo (+ 1.2.1 for mindi and 1.2.2 for mindi-busybox) and report back ? Also could you check which version of newt you have please, and also if you have any package libfribidi0 installed ?

[Bruno Cornec]

Now that 2.2.2 is officially published on ​ftp://ftp.mondorescue.org could you check again if this has been solved for good or not ? I'd like to close the bug asap.

Now that 2.2.3 is officially published on ​ftp://ftp.mondorescue.org could you check again if this has been solved for good or not ? I'd like to close the bug asap. (Do not use 2.2.2 it has a nasty bug on bzip2 compression)
