Subject: RE: Crash bug on win32-cygwin-x86-any builds

John-Dev,

 

I successfully compiled JtR 1.7.8 jumbo-6-RC5 with patches 001-005 in Cygwin
with win32-cygwin-x86-any and win32-cygwin-x86-sse.   (My gcc is v4.6.0)

 

It required no modifications.

Subject: [john-dev] Crash bug on win32-cygwin-x86-any builds

 

This may be 'similar' to what Alex is seeing on the Mac OSX (or may be
totally different).  This crash ONLY happens on win32-cygwin-x86-any.  All
other builds, work just fine.

 

I have gotten it to work.  If I build john.o without -O2, things work.
Otherwise, I get a core, with this type message:

 

john 3692 exception::handle: Error while dumping state (probably corrupted
stack)

 

There is a john.exe.stackdump, but there is nothing in there, other than
text like the line above (probably corrupted stack).

 

 

NO other builds I have show this problem.  However, if I do a full build,
then remove -O2 from the CFLAGS, then rm john.o so it rebuilds just that
file, perform the make, and the file is happy as can be.

 

When I run the 'broken' version under gdb (I know nothing about gdb, so this
will be a trial and error thing), it simply bails out, listing:

 

Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

0x0045bb27 in ?? ()

 

So it appears GDB is not getting any form of stack frame.

 

Jim.
