Stack Smashing detected

Question

I've updated the multichain to the newest version (1.0 alpha 29). When I try to add some data, on the command line of publisher node I see the message *** stack smashing detected *** multichaind terminated

What could be the problem?

Answer 1

We've made an unofficial release (1.0 alpha 29.1) with this bug corrected. You can download it here:

Linux: http://www.multichain.com/download/multichain-1.0-alpha-29.1.tar.gz

Windows: http://www.multichain.com/download/multichain-windows-1.0-alpha-29.1.zip

The fix will be rolled into beta 1, to be released shortly. Thanks again for reporting this.

Answer 2

Thanks for reporting this, it certainly sounds like a bug.

Are you willing to help us debug this? If so please zip up your blockchain directory and send it to (multichain dot debug at gmail dot com), and also include in the same email:

a) an example of the command you were running that caused this error.

b) which operating system you were running on, and how much RAM in the server.

Thanks in advance.
