GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 630369
Hang on startup if named pipe in /tmp not removed after previous crash.
Last modified: 2011-02-21 05:10:31 UTC
If Anjuta crashes due to loss of the X-server, it leaves behind the named pipe and other files in /tmp. If these are not removed, Anjuta will hang indefinitely, before displaying the splash screen.
Also may silently exit instead of hanging.
Hmm, well as anjuta wasn't shut down correctly (but rather by brute force) I would consider this major but we should check better for the named pipe.
@jhs: should this be assigned to symbol-db or to general? symbol-db is not using named pipes
Sorry, I though symbol-db was the only thing that created files in /tmp. We need a stacktrace for this bug. If you can still reproduce it, can please try to run anjuta in gdb and type "bt" (for backtrace) when it crashes. Paste the output of this command here. Thanks!
