gpilotd crashes when my Tungsten T tries to backup NetLibrary.
Comment 1 Xin Zhen 2004-04-17 11:27:25 UTC 
I have met the same problem. 

In GDB, the last output is:

...
BtLib not modified since last sync
HALSndLib not modified since last sync
Making backup of Net Library

Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

0.11.8-3.1. hope it help
Comment 2 Xin Zhen 2004-07-02 17:37:07 UTC 
I believe it's caused by a bug in pilot-link that crashes when meet a pdb larger
than 64kb.

The stack trace provided looks like it may match the one provided for bug
146595; that one may be a duplicate of this one.
Comment 4 David Millet 2005-08-12 21:38:34 UTC 
Is there a fix in the works for this?  This is very annoying to those of use
with Tungsten T's.
Comment 5 Simon Major 2005-11-22 02:33:54 UTC 
Possibly related 64k bug 320025 has full debug symbols
Comment 6 Matt Davey 2006-01-18 10:57:11 UTC 
As mentioned in comment #2, this bug is due to pilot-link.  Recent
pl versions 0.12.0pre4+ (?) should be able to deal with large (>64k)
data blocks.  Unfortunately, right now there is no official gnome-pilot
release that works cleanly with pilot-link 0.12.0pre.

It may be worth trying to install the packages by Mark Adams
( http://zeniv.linux.org.uk/pub/people/mark_adams/RPMS/i386/ ).
Note that the gnome-pilot package above should be used with the
pilot-link package used above.... more recent versions may
have problems.

Comment 9 Matt Davey 2006-02-07 14:10:31 UTC 
As this is becoming the master bug for the >64k segment issues in pilot-link 0.11.8 and gnome-pilot 2.0.12, I'm adding the following workaround that was posted by smjunk.bugzil@sakerfa1.demon.co.uk to bug #320025.

Find the name of the file that is causing the segfault to occur.
Edit your ~/.gnome2/gnome-pilot.d/backup-conduit file (path may be different
depending on your distrib ??) and modify the 'exclude_files' entry to read:

exclude_files=MyProblemFile

If you have more than one problem file, list them all, separated by spaces.
If any of the file names have spaces, you must 'escape' them by preceding them
by two '\' characters.  Here's a good list:

exclude_files=NetLibrary WiFiCoreLib Shim\\ Logs ImgFile-Foto Jpeg-Foto J9\\ MIDP\\ Bundle J9\\ Java\\ VM

Note: this 'exclude_files' syntax is poor/broken, to say the least... I guess that means it may change in the future.

Comment 33 Matt Davey 2006-08-28 08:23:33 UTC 
Finally closing this bug, as it is fixed by upgrading to pilot-link 0.12.0 which has just been released.  gnome-pilot 2.0.14 will support p-l 0.12.0, and the current CVS, and 2.0.14pre5 supports 0.12.0.
