I received that error several times myself. But haven't found the cause for it.
Created attachment 42456 [details] strace of mysql-administrator strace when running mysql-administrator
Created attachment 43196 [details] Another mysql-administrator strace The strace on my machine looks quite a bit different than the one posted above... same result though -- Segmentation fault. free(): invalid pointer 0x81e6128! free(): invalid pointer 0x81e6140! Segmentation fault
Do these messages still appear with dev-db/mysql-administrator-1.0.18?
Waiting for response.
Still get the same error. Sorry for not replying before but it has been 2 months. mysql-administrator *** glibc detected *** free(): invalid pointer: 0x081fa0e0 *** /usr/bin/mysql-administrator: line 9: 28232 Aborted $MYPATH/mysql-administrator-bin
I didn't receive this message for ages. Even using MALLOC_CHECK_=2 I didn't get any abnormal message. I'm sorry, but currently I'm not able to reproduce this. If you're familar with gdb, can you give me a backtrace? You need to emerge mysql-administrator with FEATURES="nostrip" and CFLAGS="-ggdb3" to include debugging information in the binary.
The problem disappeared for me when i recompiled glibc with nptl support and then recompiled mysql-administrator.

I don't know if this is the reason but it works when I change to mysql-4.1.8 (even if this is already old, the last is 4.1.10a). I don't know if mysql-administrator works different with the different version of mysql.
adding my self to the unfortunates list :)

Created attachment 59407 [details] strace of mysql-administrator with glibc-2.3.5 compiled w/out nptl
Still trying the shotgun approach for lack of any other ideas and impatience to resolve this problem. As the strace shows, after rebuilding glibc-2.3.5 with yet another use flag removed (nptl), then rebooting and remerging mysql-admininistrator yet again, I still have this problem. adam@aphrodite adam $ mysql-administrator *** glibc detected *** free(): invalid pointer: 0x081cc138 *** /usr/bin/mysql-administrator: line 9: 16171 Aborted $MYPATH/mysql-administrator-bin My inexpert opinion: I'm thinking something is broken in glibc-2.3.5 here.
I'm running 2.3.5 myself and don't have the problem. I'm running mysql-4.1.8-r1 but according to the gdb backtraces the error is in some area that has nothing to do with the mysql library. And my USE flags for glibc are mostly the same you are all using: [ebuild R ] sys-libs/glibc-2.3.5 -build -debug -erandom -hardened (-multilib) +nls -nomalloccheck +nptl -nptlonly -pic +userlocales 0 kB
Hey, I am having the same problem, and with mysql-query-browser too. I am not a C/C++ coder, but I am wondering if it could be something in the GTK libraries?
My desktop is primarily KDE, though I have no grudges against gnome. So I ran an 'emerge -epv mysql-query-browser' and selected a few gnome related libraries to reemerge: emerge --oneshot -pv mysql orbit gtk+ gnome-libs pango libglade gtkmm libbonobo libgnomecanvas libgnome libbonoboui libgnomeui gtk-engines libgtkhtml which gave the interesting result: These are the packages that I would merge, in order: Calculating dependencies ...done!

Not sure if this is related or helpful - attemting to run this on amd64 and I get: mysql-administrator-bin: stack smashing attack in function myx_convert_utf8_dbstr() /usr/bin/mysql-administrator: line 18: 7935 Aborted $PRG-bin This is right after entering my password on the initial dialog box.

Reporting in... same problem here. I'm running: Portage 2.0.51.22-r3 (default-linux/x86/2005.1, gcc-3.4.4, glibc-2.3.5-r2, 2.6.13-gentoo-r4 i686) Both mysql-query-browser and mysql-administrator...
Created attachment 71338 [details] dev-db/mysql-administrator/mysql-administrator-1.1.4.ebuild Since MySQL-5.0.15 (first GA release) came out today, I decided to take another stab at mysql-administrator. The announcement referenced a new version (1.1.4) with MySQL-5.0 support, so I made this ebuild. Changes: * Require gtkmm-2.4 or newer * Discard patch for MySQL-4.1 compatibilty (no longer needed) However, this fails late in the build with this error: cd ../.. && /bin/sh /var/tmp/portage/mysql-administrator-1.1.4/work/mysql-administrator-1.1.4/mysql-administrator/missing --run autoheader autom4te-2.59: need GNU m4 1.4 or later: /usr/bin/gm4 autoheader-2.59: /usr/bin/autom4te-2.59 failed with exit status: 1 I'm thinking this is an autoconf problem, and I'm not sure what the right way to fix it is. As a workaround, I tried making a symlink from /usr/bin/m4 to /usr/bin/gm4. This let's the build complete successfully. Better still, mysql-adminstrator now starts up with a dialog box! It even seems to work. Yay! So... Still need to figure out how to solve the autoconf problem. Maybe someone else can do that?
Created attachment 71340 [details] dev-db/mysql-query-browser/mysql-query-browser-1.1.17.ebuild Here's an updated ebuild for mysql-query-browser-1.1.7. Historically, I've had similar problems with this as with mysql-administrator. Changes: * Require gtkmm-2.4 or newer * Remove unneeded patch for MySQL-4.1 compatibility It probably has the same autoconf problem as the previous ebuild, but I never got rid of my gm4 symlink to test. With the symlink it builds and seems to run correctly.
I'm currently 500 km away from home. I'll get back to my equipment this weekend and take a look at the new versions.
swegener: *bump* if there is no response by 14 dec, I will assume this problem has gone away, and close with NEEDINFO pending anybody getting back to it.
I haven't seen this occur for a long time. However, the current version still has a critical bug where going to User Administration causes it to freeze. The fix for this is to alter /usr/bin/mysql-administrator (shell script) by adding this line before launching the real program: export DEBUG_DONT_SPAWN_FETCHES=1 See http://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=17879 for the upstream bug. It's closed, but perhaps should not be. I'm currently running 1.1.10 and it needs the fix. All these issues seem to be covered by #141648, so I think it is safe to close this one.
If you have issues with dev-db/mysql-gui-tools, file a new bug please.
