| Summary | 0007928: Crash on opening project | ||||
| Description | The 2/broadway_2/broadway_2.ardour project will reliably crash Ardour 5.12 on opening with the following error: (ardour-5.12.0:5010): glibmm-ERROR **: unhandled exception (type std::exception) in signal handler: what: std::bad_array_new_length Trace/breakpoint trap (core dumped) I've verified this against both the Arch Linux OS packages, and the 5.12 demo available on Ardour.org. | ||||
| Steps To Reproduce | Download the ~250mb project from here: https://drive.google.com/open?id=1gSNvHC9OfP8izXrap3zia5XWkIIG1CNA Apologies for the large size. This is a real project and I don't know how else to reproduce the issue. 1. Open 2/broadway_2/broadway_2.ardour 2. Ardour will mention that there are missing files. Ignore them. 3. The UI will load but, just before any regions appear, the program will crash. | ||||

> 1. Open 2/broadway_2/broadway_2.ardour > 2. Ardour will mention that there are missing files. Ignore them. So far so good. It also mentions that most plugins are not available, in particular calf ones. >3. The UI will load but, just before any regions appear, the program will crash. It loads just fine here using ardour-5.12 from ardour.org. (see screenshot) Have you tried loading the session in "safe mode (disable all plugins)" checkbox in the open-session dialog? |
|
|
Interesting! No, I hadn't tried safe mode. With safe mode enabled, the project does indeed open without crashing. I hesitate to ask, but how do I track down which plugin is causing the issue? Disabling all of them (safe mode) replaces them all with stubs. I can't see a way to selectively re-enable individual plugins. |
|
|
Sadly there's no easy way to find out which plugin causes this. It may also be due to a combination of plugins. Make a backup, open in safe mode, remove half of the plugins, re-load session.. test and repeat. |
|
|
Hm. I've actually gone through all of the plugins one by one and removed _all_ of them. Via safe mode, I managed to get to the mixer view and from there I could remove individual plugins, saving and reloading after each removal. Even with no plugins on any channel (and including with safe mode enabled), attempting to switch to the editor view immediately crashes Ardour. I've attached the session files with the removals made. |
|
|
Is there anything more useful I could be doing to assist? I don't want to just be throwing these things at you and implicitly demanding help. :) |
|
|
We're working on getting ardour 6.0 to release. We're not likely to back up and dig into this unless it also happens in the current master code (if you're a subscriber you could try a nightly build to see if the behavior is the same for you). |
