Here is upstream bugs: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=191644 https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=190184
Created attachment 208582 [details] amarok crash kcrash dump from amarok. The upstream bug comments seem relevant. Will check downgrading mysql to a previous release.
Downgraded mysql to version dev-db/mysql-5.0.76-r1. Downgraded amarok to version media-sound/amarok-2.1.1 Crash still occurs. For each step downgrade, I performed either a reboot or a /etc/init.d/mysql restart. In each attempt to start amarok, I get this: Executable: amarok PID: 8684 Signal: 11 (Segmentation fault) And a simular kcrash output as I posted. I'm not a programmer, so I don't know how to nor which other information to garner in terms of assisting further to track this down. I will point out that gentoo bug# 288255 might be relevant. By default, amarok restarts where it last left off when shut down. If a dynamic playlist was active at shutdown time, then such a playlist would be restarted when amarok is restarted. For now, I'm going to allow the latest version of mysql and amarok to be emerged again on my system. At this time, I'll keep my eyes open for further info in the hopes that someone else can successfully identify this issue.
Opened this bug report upstream: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=212324
Maybe this:'CMake Warning at /usr/share/apps/cmake/modules/KDE4Macros.cmake:626 (add_library): Cannot generate a safe linker search path for target amarok_collection-mysqlecollection because files in some directories may conflict with libraries in implicit directories: link library [libmysqlclient.so] in /usr/lib64 may be hidden by files in: /usr/lib64/mysql Some of these libraries may not be found correctly.' can help? Also, some people saying about manual installations of amarok works (can it be ebuild issue?).
Try removing (or moving) ~/.kde4/share/apps/amarok and see if amarok starts. This may be caused by a bad script or version update.
Yes, after this amarok starts (and if I am moving mysqle directory only), but after starting it shows collection update with result of 0 tracks. So it is not working anyway.
Removing the indicated directory allows amarok to start and to play. However, the music scan to build the database results in the following type of error message for every entry it tries to process. amarok: [ERROR!] GREPME MySQL query failed! No database selected on "INSERT INTO urls_temp(directory,deviceid,rpath,uniqueid) VALUES ( 0, -1, './pub03/Music/Artists-Bands/000-00A/Azucena - Maya [R&B]/2007 - Junkyard Jewel (mp3)/09 - Wash Over.mp3', 'amarok-sqltrackuid://512a12c79dc2a89d9842897b8034d0aa' );" Hope this helps.

Guy, please try removing the "community" patches from mysql (i.e. remove the community USE flag) and see if that helps. Might be worth re-emerging Amarok too. Don't forget to run kbuildsycoca4 --noincremental after emerging Amarok; not sure if the ebuild does it automatically.
Created attachment 209858 [details] Text showing testing steps and pertinent output Jeff, I disabled the "community" USE flag. I've attached a text file of all my activities and testing results. It looks from my "I am not a programmer" standpoint that amarok's internal pointer/pointing method to "/var/lib/mysql/amarok" is borked on my system. If you read through the text I've attached, you'll see why I think so. BTW - thanks for your suggestions. I hope my testing helps.
Amarok has nothing internal pointing to such a location. Please indicate what versions of gcc, glibc, and binutils you have. I can't parse that paludis crap.

It's cut and paste text I did from the terminal window I used. What I found odd was that /var/lib/mysql/amarok/ which had been created in Jan this year. But starting amarok-2.2.0 fresh did not cause the directory to be re-created. That was the last part of the my last attachment was supposed to show. My understanding of amarok was that it automatically created the internal database if the external database preference wasn't set {first run}. i.e. For whatever reason, amarok both no longer saw the previously existing db file and is not now creating a new file. Obviously I have no clue as to how this is actually supposed to work. i.e. I really am not a programmer. I'm just guessing what seems logical to me. I think this issue is also causing the problem with people whom try to save a playlist and amarok crashes. I believe that details about the dynamic playlists are retained in the mysql db. Therefore amarok crashes when it can't find the db to write the playlist info to. If there is any testing I can do for you or anything else you'd like me to try, I'd be happy to do so. And thanks again.
Hi, The internal database is contained in ~/.kde4/share/apps/amarok/mysqle, not /var/lib/mysql/amarok (that's where you'd find an external one). You can see if it's set to use an external one in ~/.kde4/share/config/amarokrc -- in the [MySQL] section, UseServer=X is what controls it. Don't know much about the playlist crash; I'd need to see a backtrace. I'm not sure if this specific issue is related to your exact problem (symptoms are slightly different), but there is definitely some issue with people using unstable toolchains -- that's the only correlation we can find so far. We've had one user report success by downgrading binutils to 2.19.1-r1 -- please try that if you can. If that doesn't work I'd like to see the results by downgrading gcc and glibc too, but that would require rebuilding half your system...
Thanks for explaining where the internal table resides. That will actually help. This is what's currently in that directory: pyrodyno ~ # ls -l ~/.kde4/share/apps/amarok/mysqle/ total 20480 -rw-rw---- 1 root root 5242880 Nov 10 18:24 ib_logfile0 -rw-rw---- 1 root root 5242880 Nov 10 18:24 ib_logfile1 -rw-rw---- 1 root root 10485760 Nov 10 18:24 ibdata1 Would there be any benefit to my zipping this directory and posting it here for you? It takes about 2 1/2 days to rebuild my entire system. I don't mind downgrading. It's just time consuming. I do have other computers available for internet access and such. I will try downgrading binutils. Once I do, what packages should I re-compile? I'm assuming kdelibs, mysql and amarok would be reasonable candidates for testing purposes. What other packages would you like me to do for this? As far as downgrading goes, I'll just add ">=sys-dev/binutils-2.20" to /etc/portage/package.mask and see where that takes me first. After that, I can re-emerge whatever packages you'd think best. Finally, as a reminder, I think I should point out that I've moved beyond the "amarok crashes at starting" which was the OPs original post. I moved beyond it by removing the ~./kde4/share/apps/amarok directory. At the time when I was getting the "amarok crashes on starting", I was getting the same messages as the OP. kcrash was indicating activity with "innodb". I suspect that amarok was trying to restore state information saved from when it was previously shutdown. This would include song statistics for the then active dynamic playlist. I'm guessing that clearing the amarok directory cleared the prior state information hence no need for any db access. At this time I'm still having problems in that 1) amarok won't build my collections database and 2) amarok crashes on exit. In both these instances, mysql appears to be involved. I'll get started on downgrading binutils now and check back for suggestions on packages to rebuild later. Wish me luck!
SUCCESS!!!! I masked >=sys-devel/binutils-2.20 as indicated previously. I re-emerged mysql and amarok. I also ran revdep-rebuild -i -p which reported 100% consistency. My collections database now builds and amarok no longer crashes when I exit it. The state information from exiting is recovered when I restart amarok. I probably will rebuild my entire system sooner rather than later. I was rather distressed to see the number of packages listed when I ran the command "equery d binutils". However, I was especially intrigued to see xulrunner listed. I've been having crashes in mozilla-firefox and seamonkey on a regular basis. I'm hoping re-emerging them now will help with that issue as well. If there is any further information you'd like me to collect for you, please let me know.
I've done some tests locally and it seems amarok segfaults on start when built with binutils-2.20. A quick workaround for now is to do the following: # emerge -1 =binutils-2.19.1-r1 amarok # emerge -1 binutils
Guy, Do please let us know if rebuilding xulrunner with <binutils-2.20 fixes your crashes there (if they were reproducible). It would be good to know if this is not just isolated to amarok and/or mysql.

Mike, I've hit this issue on x86_64.

I have an other workaround: dev-db/mysql-community-5.1.15_beta. It's the only mysql 5.1 of portage that (nearly) compile => http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=292720 I'm using amarok-9999 with this mysql and binutils-2.20 since some weeks without any problems. I think it's time to unmask mysql-5.1... => http://forum.kde.org/viewtopic.php?f=115&t=83126#p134577
remove your .kde4/share/apps/amarok and .kde/share/config/amarok* and all works again (for me) but in this way, all your settings will be removed

According to qlop, the last time I emerged Amarok was before the binutils-2.20 update. Now with 2.20, *any* version of Amarok segfaults. So I guess if you masked 2.2.1 because of this, you will have to also mask all versions since they all segfault; the problem is not specific to 2.2.1. I guess the only sane thing to do is to place a blocker on binutils-2.20 (most people care more about being able to use Amarok rather than what version of binutils is installed, which to most is completely irrelevant.) emerge -pv mysql: [ebuild R ] dev-db/mysql-5.0.84-r1 USE="community embedded ssl -berkdb -big-tables -cluster -debug -extraengine -latin1 -max-idx-128 -minimal -perl -profiling (-selinux) -static" emerge -pv amarok: [ebuild R ] media-sound/amarok-2.2.0 USE="opengl (-aqua) -cdda -daap -debug -ipod -lastfm -mp3tunes -mtp -semantic-desktop" LINGUAS="-bg -ca -cs -da -de -en_GB -es -et -eu -fi -fr -it -ja -km -nb -nds -nl -pa -pl -pt -pt_BR -ru -sl -sr -sr@latin -sv -th -tr -uk -wa -zh_TW"

I can confirm that amarok-2.2.0 + binutils-2.20 crash inside mysqld on startup.
and what about amarok 2.2.1?
2.2.1 currently have the same problem.

*** Bug 293809 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
Just upgraded to amarok-2.2.1-r1 from amarok-2.2.0, also amarok-utils-2.2.1, WITH binutils-2.20. My Amarok is not configured to use an external database, and works for me. When I exit amarok, I must manually kill the amarok process, even when I use amarok's Menu Item "Quit" to quit I must manually kill the amarok process, and then I may start amarok fresh. NOTE: When I installed amarok-2.2.0 I had to remove all references to amarok under my .kde4 directory before it would work. I did not do this for the 2.2.1-r1 upgrade. Here's the messages received when starting, then below that is when I quit: InnoDB: The InnoDB memory heap is disabled InnoDB: use atomic builtins. InnoDB: The log sequence number in ibdata files does not match InnoDB: the log sequence number in the ib_logfiles! 091120 4:19:12 InnoDB: Database was not shut down normally! InnoDB: Starting crash recovery. InnoDB: Reading tablespace information from the .ibd files... InnoDB: Restoring possible half-written data pages from the doublewrite InnoDB: buffer... these messages when I select Quit from inside Amarok: Object::disconnect: Unexpected null parameter Object::disconnect: Unexpected null parameter Object::disconnect: Unexpected null parameter QCoreApplication::postEvent: Unexpected null receiver
I really appeal that this Bug is really existing. It have nothing to do with MySQL or Binutils, it is 100% a problem with the amarok config in ~/.kde4 with removing the amarok config all works fine so its no error that have to do with binutils in any way. It seems more like an error about amarok himself about handling the configs after an update (amarok 2.x had always problems with the existing config files after an update. Sometimes there are only the half of all songs and so on) So please tell me if you can reproduce this bug with clean KDE or amarok settings (maybe move .kde4 to .kde4.backup or create a new user)

We are talking about a segmentation fault here, not Amarok misbehavior with old settings.
So how to reproduce this error? Since i have a clean .kde4 config the error does not longer appears on my machine, same on my Virtual Machines.
(In reply to comment #39) > It have nothing to do with MySQL or Binutils, it is 100% a problem with the > amarok config in ~/.kde4 > [...] > It seems more like an error about amarok himself about handling the configs > after an update [...] This may be doubted, since the issue also appears after a 2.2.0 reinstallation (no update involved), as mentioned above.
Amarok 2.2.1-r1 crashes on startup, even when compiled with binutils-2.20. I can confirm that this is fixed by removing .kde4/share/apps/amarok. I can also confirm that the process needs to be manually killed on exit (killall amarok).

Ok, I can confirm that the following made amarok startup again: ~ $ rm .kde4/share/apps/amarok/collection_scan.* ~ $ rm .kde4/share/apps/amarok/amarokcollectionscanner_batchincrementalinput.data ~ $ rm .kde4/share/apps/amarok/my.cnf ~ $ rm -r .kde4/share/apps/amarok/mysqle/ Amarok would have an empty collection afterwards and not update it. That could only be achieved by clicking "fully rescan collection" in the "collection" settings. The collection will however be empty afterwards, and pressing "fully rescan collection" a second time will not solve the problem. Restarting amarok and running another full scan does not solve the issue, either. Exiting amarok works fine. I tried with the initially empty collection, and after the full rescan and never had a hanging amarok process.

Continuing the 0-item-collection issue mentioned e.g. in comment #47 as bug #293934.
@maintainer as you see in the comments this bug is not binutils related in any way! plz remove the pkg_postinstall message from the portage tree beceause its a amarok and his configuration related problem everyguy which just tried removing the amarok configs in ~/.kde4 had a working amarok and no problems anymore (as you can see in the comments) plz stop making people masking the new binutils and mark this bug as fiexed (maybe as "Fixed works for me")
To resolve the 0-collection problem you have two chances Configure (emerge --config mysql) and start MySQL Daemon set up amarok to use the external MySQL Database or compile MySQL 5.1 by yourself (it just works fine with 5.1 without doing anything)
(In reply to comment #49) > everyguy which just tried removing the amarok configs in ~/.kde4 had a working > amarok and no problems anymore (as you can see in the comments) This is not exactly correct. "Does not segfault" != "no problems". It is still that after deleting the mysqle/ directory Amarok is basically useless, since the collection will stay empty. Hence I am using MPD now, which (with GMPC + plugins) also has dynamic playlist support. > [...] and mark this bug as fiexed (maybe as "Fixed works for me") s.a.
I was experiencing this bug, rebuilding with previous binutils fixed it. Removing config made amarok start but left me with an empty collection. Keeping the config and downgrading binutils worked wonderfully.
(In reply to comment #49) > @maintainer > > as you see in the comments this bug is not binutils related in any way! What I see here is many conflicting issues in the same bug report. > plz remove the pkg_postinstall message from the portage tree beceause its a > amarok and his configuration related problem Not exactly. I hit this on 2 different machines and reproduced it with 2.2.0 and 2.2.1 and in all cases building amarok with binutils-2.19.1-r1 stopped it from segfaulting on start. > everyguy which just tried removing the amarok configs in ~/.kde4 had a working > amarok and no problems anymore (as you can see in the comments) You can read in the comment before this one that your statement isn't true. > plz stop making people masking the new binutils and mark this bug as fiexed > (maybe as "Fixed works for me") I didn't ask or told anyone to mask the newer binutils, quite the opposite. I've given a quick workaround until this is fixed that ensures users will have the latest binutils installed.

On every upgrade of amarok compile old binutils first. compile amarok and compile new binutils again. amarok updates are really fast in the last time so this is no real workaround. And about the bug with the clean collection i dont know why this happens here in Gentoo and why this happens with Binutils 2.20 the fact is that it works without problems on every PC with MySQL 5.1 So even when everyone says its not MySQL related. Why does it work without problems with MySQL 5.1 and with MySQL 5.0 there are a lot problems? Maybe the error is not the old MySQL itself, more like an unhappy chain of events. But about 99% of all people which experience problems about a 0-collection can be helped by using MySQL 5.1 so whereever the problem lies, it can be fixed by using MySQL 5.1 100% The only way to get it with MySQL 5.0 working is to build it with old binutils. But to say the truth, its quite no nice workaround to compile the old binutils, compile amarok and the new binutils on every update!
//Edit: This bug report is about that amarok does not start with new binutils and thats what i said that is wrong. It starts very fine with new binutils that it can handle MySQL 5.0 with the new binutils is a other problem. In fact this bug here is not existing beceause its caused by amaroks handling of configuration file. as i said in the post before i dont know why amarok does not work with MySQL 5.0 while Binutils 2.20 is installed but it works with MySQL 5.1 and MySQL 5.1 is the recent stable version. So in my eyes there is still no bug existing right here
(In reply to comment #55) > So in my eyes there is still no bug existing right here The bug is described in the 1st post. Don't battle with semantics. You might want to change the title of this bug, but you don't close it because there *is* a bug.
Than the title should be changed to >=media-sound/amarok-2.2.0 crashes on startup in case of handling his config files when built with >=binutils-2.20 + cant connect to MySQL 5.0 embedded and all other bugs related to the MySQL 5.0 problem and so on should be marked as a duplicate

Your other workaround is EXACTLY what the message in the ebuild says. Please stop writing 7 comments every time and concat them to just one.

(In reply to comment #57) > Than the title should be changed to > >=media-sound/amarok-2.2.0 crashes on startup in case of handling his config files when built with >=binutils-2.20 + cant connect to MySQL 5.0 embedded Except that the crash is not related to the config files, but to the mysqle/ db files... Your theory about config files makes especially no sense in that you will also experience the abovementioned crash if you just rebuild amarok (as I did). If you are experiencing an issue which is different from the one mentioned here, please create a new bugreport about that (as I did). Also: It sounds *a lot* better to rebuild binutils twice every 2 months, than to delete everything amarok related every such time as you suggest. Further: Please do not argue about the non-existance of this bug when several people are running into it and are actually having issues. That the amarok version bump, the binutils issue and other mysqle issues all happened at the same time and are having different solutions does not make any one of them less of a problem.
Look, amarok still crashed when built with the proper buildutils but mysql 5.0. and you don't even have to delete EVERYTHING amarok related, all you have to delete is ~/.kde4/share/apps/amarok/mysqle. I deleted that, which isn't even a big deal because the new collection scanner is fast enough. So once I deleted that, amarok started, but then gave me zero files in my collection. After scanning, it still gave me zero files, but after closing amarok and reopening it and rescanning everything works FINE. So... there is definitely a crash related to the mysqle directory.
The problem IMHO is the gentoo patchset to mysql 5.0.x (more speciffically the patch who makes libmysqld a shared library). The problem doesnt happen with manually compiled mysql 5.1 because u dont applied the gentoo patches to it and only created a static lib (btw a mysql 5.0.84 without patches works too). The problem has nothing to do with the config and more with a problem of the amarok_collection-mysqlecollection.so linked to libmysqld.so using binutils-2.20. If you do a "amarok --nofork --debug" without the mysqld directory you can see an error because cant create the db (origin of the 0-file collection), or a crash if it can find the db (but cant open/select it anyway). This bug is very weird because i cant reproduce the problem with a test app linked to libmysqld.so (it success to always create the db). I agree with the approach of make libmysqle.a a shared library but is causing more problem than solutions :/. Btw i can reproduce this bug with amarok from git so isnt tied with an specific version. Sorry for my english.
So maybe there should be provided a vanilla use-flag for MySQL and amarok should depend on MySQL[+vanilla]
I can confirm this problem on my system. Amarok (both 2.2.1-r1 and 2.2.0) would not start with my old config once I had built against binutils 2.20. If the old config was erased, amarok would start but was unable to build the database (I even opened the embeded database to confirm that there was not information, no tracks, no tables, no "amarok" database). Downgrading binutils to 2.19 and rebuilding amarok solved the problem. Mysql version 5.0.84-r1. I did not try running stand alone mysql server.
FWIW, 2.20.51.0.3 seems to be working but this is a new install.
I've built binutils-2.20.51.0.3, rebuilt Amarok and MySqueal, but to no avail. Removing the config still makes it scream for a non-existing database it obviously fails to create correctly. Downgrading binutils to 2.19 and re-emerging Amarok fixes the problem. The database is created correctly and the collection scanner fills it with tracks. I didn't rebuild mysql after downgrading binutils, so this looks more like a problem with Amarok than with mysql.
I built Amarok with binutils 2.20 and have experienced no issues. I use the external mysql database. I didn't even have to delete my config when upgrading from Amarok 2.2.0 to 2.2.1-r1.
I'm pretty sure the problem only occurs with embedded MySQL
I'm using external MySQL and still had this issue.
*** Bug 293934 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
I have some interesting things that i found while finding the problem with amarok: First, a better "workaround" for make amarok works with >=binutils-2.20, is a patch that removes the linking of libmysqlclient.so into amarok_collection-mysqlecollection.so. Looks like if libmysqlclient.so AND libmysqld.so are linked together the later dont work at all (cant create a db, select, etc). Seeing this i can think that the gentoo-created libmysqld.so conflicts with libmysqlclient.so, BUT why amarok works with binutils 2.19 and not 2.20? Looks like that binutils 2.20 links libmysqlclient.so into amarok_collection-mysqlecollection.so but 2.19 doesnt do that. I created a little testcase to test it further and looks like that the -Wl,--as-needed flag is ignored by binutils 2.20 (the testcase works with binutils 2.19 and fails with 2.20 like amarok). You can test it by compiling my testcase with binutils-2.19 and 2.20 then comparing the ldd outputs. I hope that this helps to find if this bug is with mysql (conflicting libs), amarok (pulling libmysqlclient.so in amarok_collection-mysqlecollection.so) or binutils (--as-needed not working properly in 2.20) Sorry for my english.
Created attachment 211474 [details, diff] patch to remove the libmysqlclient.so link in amarok_collection-mysqlecollection.so
Created attachment 211476 [details] Testcase to find why amarok work with binutils <2.20 Compile the testcase with make and run with ./mysql-test The testcase tries to create the "amarok" database in ./data then tries to select it, create a table and insert a value. Works with binutils <2.20, fails with binutils >=2.20
To those of you who think this is an issue with config files, or the database stored under ~/.kde4, removal of them had no effect. the only solution that *worked for me* was downgrading to the stable version of binutils, and recompiling amarok. Amarok now works, and my database now shows my local files as one would expect. EOF.

kudos to Cesar for the test case the change in as-needed behavior seems to have occurred between 2.19.51.0.1 and 2.19.51.0.2. i can look into this aspect, but i'm not sure it's the right answer here. relying on as-needed here seems like a bad idea. how do you expect this to work on a system that lacks as-needed support ? the same failure is observed when using any version of binutils and omitting the as-needed flag. if mysqld and mysqlclient are both loaded, the failure occurs. presumably some symbols are clashing here and some calls are going to the former while others to the latter.
Please test amarok-2.2.1-r2 as it should hopefully fix this issue.
Works fine here now. Combinations tested: Amarok built with binutils-2.20 and MySQL with 2.19.1-r1. Both Amarok and MySQL built with binutils 2.20.
works fine here =)
(In reply to comment #80) > Please test amarok-2.2.1-r2 as it should hopefully fix this issue. Works fine here; amarok-2.2.1-r2 and mysql-5.0.84-r1 built with binutils-2.20
Given the last comments, I'm going to close this bug as fixed. Please reopen if you hit this issue again.
