[EPIC]BUG_FORM

2003-02-13 Thread Joe Eversole

If you should see what you think to be a bug, please fill out
this form and send to the following address(es):

[EMAIL PROTECTED]

And we will try to get back to you as soon as we can, and will
correct the bug if it is at all possible.


Please remember when reporting a bug that information counts.  Since
we have not yet mastered the skill of mind-reading, you should not
assume that we know anything about your situation.  We have seen some
things that look absolutely strange to us, but are perfectly normal
to the user. It is best for you to take the stance that we dont know
that much about your operating system, so you should try to start at
the beginning and clue us in.  Thanks a bunch. |8^)


Question one:  Please describe your computer system
Hardware type?
IBM NetVista P4-1.6 Ghz, 128MB Ram, 40GB HDD.
Operating System? (try uname -a for most, or uname -X for SCO)
Linux eversolej.wishard.edu 2.4.18-24.8.0 #1 Fri Jan 31 06:51:30 EST 
2003 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux
Your compiler (include version, if known)
gcc version 3.2 20020903 (Red Hat Linux 8.0 3.2-7)
What scripts/script packs you run (phoenix, uus, superpack, etc)
Anduril
Anything else you think might be helpful.
I CVS Update'd my source this morning. 13 Feb 2003

Question two:  Where does your problem occur?
[ ]  Configure time (dies while running configure)
[ ]  Compiler time (dies when you type 'make')
[X]  Run time (You got a CRITICAL PROTECTION ERROR)
[ ]  Run time (You got a PANIC message)
[ ]  Run time (non-fatal logic bug)

If it is at run time, please try to describe as best you can what
you were doing when the client malfunctioned.  Had you just run
a command?  Can you duplicate the error?  What seems to cause the
error in your best judgement?  Have you found anything else
that independantly causes this same problem?

If I unload my script, epic doesn't crash. Epic started crashing this
morning (13 Feb 2003) after cvs updating my source and rebuilding it.
Whenever I join a channel, I get a critical protection error. I have tried
this on several channels on DALnet (jade.va.us.dal.net) and the client
crashes on all channels. I oper on the server, but, the problem persisits
through being umode +o or -o and regardless of my client being masked
by DALnet's oper host masking. Error message follows:

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
IRC-II has trapped a critical protection error.
This is probably due to a bug in the program.

If you have access to the 'BUG_FORM' in the ircII source distribution,
we would appreciate your filling it out if you feel doing so would
be helpful in finding the cause of your problem.

If you do not know what the 'BUG_FORM' is or you do not have access
to it, please dont worry about filling it out.  You might try talking
to the person who is in charge of IRC at your site and see if you can
get them to help you.

This version of IRC II is  ---[EPIC4-1.1.10 (461)]

The date of release is ---[20021226]


* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
The program will now terminate.
Call stack
[  0] /join #operators
End of call stack
[joe@eversolej joe]$

If you know how to use a debugger, it would be helpful if you
can get a stack trace, and cut and paste it here.

Cannot find a corefile.

Please include any other information that you think we should know about.

Please let me know if there is any more info you guys need. Thanks for the
rocking client!



Thank you for taking the time to fill this out.  We hope that this form
will make finding and fixing bugs much less of a headache for both
us and you.  We will reply to you as soon as possible (probably the next
school day), and we will let you know when we've fixed the problem and
give you a patch for it.
