could you paste the error log ?

[Comment 2 Sérgio Francisco Moraes Villela 2004-07-09 14:59:07 UTC]

There's no error log. The log that it have is after I put the server.met file.

[Comment 3 Martin Holzer (RETIRED) 2004-07-09 15:14:27 UTC]

i still need more infos
maybe you could strace the problem

[Comment 4 Sérgio Francisco Moraes Villela 2004-07-09 20:15:20 UTC]

Well... I've delete the server.met file and "touch" a new one. I've stated the aMule in a terminal and that's the output...

follow what I've suggested here and post the results:

http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=45091#c5


this is the major source for amule crashes...

[Comment 6 Jon Hood (RETIRED) 2004-07-19 15:30:15 UTC]

could you please try amule-1.2.7 or amule-1.2.8 and let me know if the problem is still happening? One of these two should become the next stable version in portage.

[Comment 7 Jon Hood (RETIRED) 2004-08-13 18:35:49 UTC]

This is supposedly fixed in 1.2.8 which is now stable.
