Thunar 1.6.4 crashes when copying files

Hi,

since a few days/weeks (I guess since the update from 1.6.3 to 1.6.4) thunar crashes when I try to copy files (single or multiple, doesn't matter) from one folder to another. No matter how I do it (drag&drop, ctrl-c/v, copy/paste with context menu) or where I do it (from one HDD to another or just copy on one partition) thunar shuts down at roughly 50% of all copy/paste actions without any graphical error message.

I checked if it's some usersetting that might could be wrong so I deleted the Thunar config files in ./config and tried to copy/paste with a newly created user. Result in both tries negative: still crash.

I also think I can exclude some hardware failure as copying in the commandline still works fine.

Some system information:
Xubuntu 14.04 64bit
Kernel 3.16.2
xfce 4.12 ppa from xubuntu-dev
Harddisks have plenty of space

This is the error message displayed when I run thunar from the terminal:

Gtk-Message: (for origin information, set GTK_DEBUG): failed to retrieve property `GtkMenuBar::internal-padding' of type `gint' from rc file value "-1" of type `glong'
Speicherzugriffsfehler (Speicherabzug geschrieben)

The Gtk-message appears right after starting thunar, that Speicherzugriffsfehler just happens when thunar is crashing. BTW: it translates as something like: memory access error (memory-tear-off written)
Sorry if that's not entirely correct ^^.

Is somebody aware of this issue? Some tips for me? Is it possible to downgrade to 1.6.3 without dismissing all the other xfce-4.12 packages?

Please help.
Thanks.

edit: for me this issue is not existent anymore. As someone else already wrote, here's the workaround:

"To work around the issue, it should suffice to go to Preferences and check/uncheck "Show file size in binary format"."

Re: Thunar 1.6.4 crashes when copying files

If at all possible, can you do an strace on thunar? To do this, start thunar in a terminal window with:

strace thunar -o ~/thunar.strace

...and make it crash. The ~/thunar.strace file will probably be large, so if you can host is somewhere like pastebin.com that would probably be best. You can do this from within Xubuntu via:

pastebinit ~/thunar.strace

...and post back the link that is generated. (You may need to install the pastebinit program if its not already installed).

Re: Thunar 1.6.4 crashes when copying files

That strace doesn't seem to work:

When I use it as you suggested it says option "-o" is unknown.
When I use it without -o it says it can't find the file thunar.strace.
When I create the file thunar.strace before, it will open that empty file after showing some output... but thunar won't open.

Here's the output:
http://pastebin.com/index/bDnSs4EZ

...but I guess that won't help as thunar is neither starting nor crashing. Do you have any other suggestions?

Re: Thunar 1.6.4 crashes when copying files

Sorry, I got that backwards:

strace -o ~/thunar.strace thunar

(note to self: always test the command first before posting it)

Re: Thunar 1.6.4 crashes when copying files

That one doesn't seem to contain information about the crash. Perhaps another copy of, or the Thunar daemon is running (in which case you'll need to connect to the running process with strace).

Here is information on how to use gdb to try to debug the crash. Perhaps it might yield some information.

Re: Thunar 1.6.4 crashes when copying files

dbg doesn't seem to detect anything, just saying it exited normally:
http://pastebin.com/index/aRnke81M

@thunar daemon: I can't find any thunar related processes with "top -p $(pgrep -d',' thu)", so I guess it's not running.

I also tried another strace like before but the message I received is the same. What's different this time: strace seems to have crashed and caused a bug-warning with that xfce-gui-crash-report-thingy. It says:

strace crashed with SIGSEGV in__GI_raise()

...and some other stuff which doesn't look so important to me (and is not possible to copy/paste because it's not selectable).

I just clicked on "send report"... don't know will happen with the informations though.

Re: Thunar 1.6.4 crashes when copying files

Hi,

I have this problem too. Think it started somewhen at the end of last year.

There is no clear way to reproduce it ... just take a file and move it from directory A to directory B ... repeat this until it crashes... sometimes it crashes right on begin, sometimes it needs 10 tries (I varied between 3 directories, moving to/from an attached smb-share increased chances - but this might be subjective).

So how to trace it down:

thunar -q

connect(5, {sa_family=AF_LOCAL, sun_path=@"/tmp/dbus-vpvAWZGKFu"}, 23) = 0

getsockname(5, {sa_family=AF_LOCAL, NULL}, [2]) = 0

So this seems more and more to be related to libdbus.


Sorry for posting the content here instead of a bug report, but this removes the hassle to file a complete bug report - which I just do not have the time for now.


Hope that helps somehow,

Re: Thunar 1.6.4 crashes when copying files

Sometimes it is hard to find existing bug reports because you search with the wrong keywords.

"Nautilus" got an update the last weeks too (here on linux mint xfce) ... they had a copy-past-file->bug  too. Was glad when seeing the update, until I recognized it was for Nautilus ... and I was using Thunar tongue


So ... sorry for writing to this topic instead of adding useful information to the bug report (if this is the same thing, which I think is).

No worries. Your stack traces contained the information to help locate the most likely culprit of the bug. It will be helpful information to the community at large. And you are correct, it is difficult to find the correct bug reports.

I really thought this bug was eliminated in 1.6.5 when it came out a few days ago.

But after some time using it I found out it "just" got better: with 1.6.4 the crashing-probability when copy/pasting was about 50% on my system; now with 1.6.5 it seems to have decreased to about 20% (and I can only reproduce it with ctrl+c/v - drag&drop now works all the time... coincidence?). That's still not usable but I'm sure the devs are working hard on it as rumors tell that the xfce-team plans to finish 4.12 within february.

Re: Thunar 1.6.4 crashes when copying files

I think that any news would come from that bug report. Reading the report, it looks there are some issues reproducing the bug. Perhaps you can offer to assist?

Re: Thunar 1.6.4 crashes when copying files

I did not see any changes regarding this issue with the latest version on Linux Mint. Only visible change (for me) was the removal of running "marked as executable" scripts right from Thunar (for whatever reason someone thought this is a good idea to "just remove" that ...).

The bug has not yet been resolved. There are some issues with the developers being able to reproduce it. Therefore any potential fix will not yet be available.

The problem seems to be that it is difficult to replicate. For instance, I can't seem to replicate the issue on my system. Thats not to say that the issue is not a valid one, just that its difficult to replicate.

If anyone who is experiencing this bug could also offer to work with the developer in that bug report, they may be able to locate the issue quicker.

Re: Thunar 1.6.4 crashes when copying files

The problem is for us "helpers" the same: we cannot replicate it everytime - else we would of course provide a guide to reach the bugged spot. I also receive "game crashes" reports without further info. Ends often with me trying hours to replicate things.


My last post wasnt meant offending, I just wanted to state, that I assume the "bug" not to be ironed out already (because it was not mentioned in the changelogs).


Regarding "reproduceability": I think it has to do with some lib changes - but I assume that these libs are the same for all - when running the same distribution (Linux Mint 17 64Bit xfce edition here). Maybe devs are running another distro with another "libdbus"-revision.

BTW my libdbus is:

lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root      18 Nov 25 21:38 libdbus-1.so.3 -> libdbus-1.so.3.7.6
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root  281552 Nov 25 21:38 libdbus-1.so.3.7.6

Re: Thunar 1.6.4 crashes when copying files

I'm sorry if I gave the impression that I was offended - I was not. I was just recapping the current state of the bug.

It is quote possible, as you say, that it is some intermediary component that is causing the bug. On this system, Arch Linux, I've got:

$ pacman -Qi libdbus
Name           : libdbus
Version        : 1.8.16-2

On my Xubuntu 14.10 system, I have:

$ apt-cache policy libdbus-1-3
libdbus-1-3:
  Installed: 1.8.8-1ubuntu2.1

Unfortunately, I cannot replicate this bug on either of these two systems.

Re: Thunar 1.6.4 crashes when copying files

Hello. I'd like to help debug this. I'm currently running two Xubuntu systems, one has the bug and the other doesn't seem to.

The bug-free system is a netbook using Xubuntu 14.04.1 (32 bits/i686) with Intel graphics, no propietary drivers, and the 4.12 Xfce repo.

The buggy one, a laptop, has the 64 bits (x86-64) version of Xubuntu, nVIDIA graphics (with driver version 331.113), and also Thunar 1.65 (same repo as the netbook).

I'll read the whole threads and report back...

Re: Thunar 1.6.4 crashes when copying files

@ offending
No problem, did not really expect someone to be offended, but the last weeks I often had to excuse for myself sometimes writing a bit rude or "interpretable" (not my mother tongue).



hmm apt-cache.

$ apt-cache policy libdbus-1-3
libdbus-1-3:
  Installiert:           1.6.18-0ubuntu4.3
  Installationskandidat: 1.6.18-0ubuntu4.3
  Versionstabelle:
 *** 1.6.18-0ubuntu4.3 0
        500 http://ftp-stud.hs-esslingen.de/ubuntu/ trusty-updates/main amd64 Packages
        500 http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ trusty-security/main amd64 Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
     1.6.18-0ubuntu4 0
        500 http://ftp-stud.hs-esslingen.de/ubuntu/ trusty/main amd64 Packages

As you see I am running with locale "deDE" (which shouldnt affect the whole thing). Seems I have "1.6.18" installed. Always thought the "***.so"-names show which kind of version is installed.

Also I do not run "Xubuntu" but "Linux Mint" (64bit). Think my Xubuntu boxes do not have that bug either, at least I did not recognize that bug when "cleaning up" the computers of my parents (btw: 32bit variant installed there).


bye

Re: Thunar 1.6.4 crashes when copying files

Another thunar crash message (Xubuntu 14.04 64 upgraded today to 4.12 with ppa:xubuntu-dev/xubuntu-staging and ppa:xubuntu-dev/xfce-4.12):

process 6691: arguments to dbus_message_get_reply_serial() were incorrect, assertion "message != NULL" failed in file ../../dbus/dbus-message.c line 1090.
This is normally a bug in some application using the D-Bus library.

Most of the time, thunar crashes while copying with a simple segmentation fault message.

I hope that you (and everyone else) are filing bug reports here:

https://bugzilla.xfce.org/

Or adding information, if there is already one filed that fits. See:

Re: Thunar 1.6.4 crashes when copying files

Unfortunately, I don't think we are going to solve the dev/user issue here on this thread, and this thread is wandering from its initial purpose. Lets return back to focusing on the issue at hand - thunar crashing.

Reading through the bug report, I'm seeing that a large number of people experiencing the bug are using the 4.12 PPA.

Re: Thunar 1.6.4 crashes when copying files

I do not use any ppa but the one provided by Linux Mint 17 "Qiana".
EDIT: ok, I am using the "ppa:xubuntu-dev/xfce-4.12" too (somehow my repos wont get listed via gui atm but saw it when comparing version strings with local install and vm).

I assume many devs are using other distros. I only have VMs with older distros running and they do not have these issues (12.04 based ones to keep lib-issues away from my precompiled binaries).

Will setup a new VM with Mint 17 64bit now ...
