WSJTX Segmentation fault


 

Anyone else getting a Segmentation fault with WSJTX 2.5.3? Happens on Decode.
FT991A, Bullseye, BAP, rPI4
Trying to work out if this is WSJTX or Bullseye issue.

Seems to be WSJTX related. There's mentions of it over on the WSJTX groups.io.
gdb produces this:
Thread 1 "wsjtx" received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
0xb58f8c40 in QtPrivate::qustrchr(QStringView, unsigned short) ()
?? from /lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/libQt5Core.so.5
I'll wait for an update, hopefully there's a fix.

Whenever I start seeing segmentation faults in an application, I build the app (in this case WSJTX) from the source code and the problem disappears.?


 

Yep, built from source.
Well it seems to be running fine ATM. Not sure why it was acting up before. Whatever it was, I'm not going to touch it and move on and consider it a win for now...
till the issue re-appears ;)

I don't know how to see a segmentation fault but since building a new BAP image that loaded WSJTX v2.5.3 (after modifying the BAP script), my WSJTX won't run? for more than a minute before shutting down (or being shut down)..? So, I might be experiencing the same problem as your are reporting.

Bullseye, WSJX v2.5.3, Icom 7000 running FLRIg and Signalink USB


 

You can run wsjtx from command line and you'll see the error there when it crashes... Or run it using gdb debugger.
Mine is also back to crashing...?

Thanks for the tip on running wsjtx from the cmd line.? Yep, I am getting segment faults also.? Running a Pi3B with 1 GB of memory.? Also on this build FLRig is v 1.4.4 and has added and "Extra Controls" window that has buttons for selecting bands and CTCSS tones.
