Bug: mono coredump after Upgrade 2.0.19 or 2.0.20 [RESOLVED]

[ViolentCrimes]

TCAdmin Version: 2.0.19 and 2.0.20

Operating System: Debian Squeeze, 64 bit, Stock Kernel customized for 1000Hz

Machine Specs: Dual X5472 @ 3.00GHz, 8GB

Database Type: mysql

Mono: 2.6.7 Linux 64 Bits (Debian Squeeze default package)

 

==

 

Observed: After starting monitor-console or monitor-service, it boots and crashes (10% of the time) or coredumps mono (90% of the time) right after startup. It will not start properly.

 

Steps to reproduce:

Upgrade old 2.0.18 version (not the later released 2.0.18_1 or whatever update) to 2.0.19. Run monitor.

 

I've tried all combinations of upgrading via web or via command line tool. Upgrading to 2.0.19 or 2.0.20. Repeating command line tool upgrade, etc.

 

See attachment for coredump stacktrace and mono stacktrace.

 

I've rolled back to 2.0.18 for now. Really want to escape that version. D:

Can you see if it crashes with mono 2.10.2? The next update includes support for this.

 

The current v2 versions will not load the website correctly with 2.10.2 but you should be able to see if it crashes or not.

[ViolentCrimes]

It's a production machine with other mono apps on it; I prefer to stick with the Debian squeeze stable packages for mono.

 

I could set up a vmware image with my setup and 2.0.20, see if it crashes at all or if it's specific to the production machine, but it'll be a while before I have the time.

 

Any other Linux testers that have run into this issue or am I the only one?

 

Do you run any tests on Linux before releasing? On what kind of platform?

[LFA]

I test everything on CentOS 5 32bit. On others the only testing i do is make sure it starts up and that the website loads. The only coding that depends on the Linux distro are the service scripts.

 

Later this week I will upload a 64bit build for mono 2.10.2 that you can extract to /opt. It will not affect your current mono installation.

Anything yet?

[ECF]

I am sure he will post when an update is ready.

[LFA]

I'll have it ready for tomorrow morning.

Try this:

http://www.tcadmin.com/installer/mono-deb-2.10.2-x86_64.tar.gz

 

Extract to /opt.

[LFA]

Are you still getting the crashes?

[ViolentCrimes]

I'll test tomorrow.

Upgrading to 2.0.22 solved it, without a need for a mono update.

 

Thanks!
