[Bug 1168899] New: Eclipse from eclipse.org crashes at startup with "free(): invalid pointer" message
http://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1168899 Bug ID: 1168899 Summary: Eclipse from eclipse.org crashes at startup with "free(): invalid pointer" message Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE Distribution Version: Leap 15.2 Hardware: x86-64 OS: openSUSE Factory Status: NEW Severity: Critical Priority: P5 - None Component: Development Assignee: screening-team-bugs@suse.de Reporter: walter.zimmer@dlr.de QA Contact: qa-bugs@suse.de Found By: --- Blocker: --- User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:74.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/74.0 Build Identifier: Downloaded and unpacked Eclipse for scientific computing. Started as usual, it shows the splash screen but crashes soon. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. download and unpack Eclipse for Scientific Computing: wget http://ftp.fau.de/eclipse/technology/epp/downloads/release/2020-03/R/eclipse... tar xf eclipse-parallel-2020-03-R-linux-gtk-x86_64.tar.gz 2. start the "eclipse" binary in the dir: cd eclipse ./eclipse -consoleLog Actual Results: Splash screen shows for a short time, crash *** Error in `/usr/bin/java': free(): invalid pointer: 0x0000561e07bb11f0 *** (addess changes with each invocation) Expected Results: Eclipse starts up as usual, next step is asking for the workspace to use. Also tried with Java 9 (set via update-alternative), same result. /usr/bin/java --version openjdk 9.0.4 OpenJDK Runtime Environment (build 9.0.4+12-suse-lp152.1.29-x8664) OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (build 9.0.4+12-suse-lp152.1.29-x8664, mixed mode) Tried older versions (2019-12 and 2019-09), same result. In contrast: all three run fine on 15.1. Didn't try the lighter Eclipse packages, but I guess this has to be something fundamental. Don't know any workaround. I'm not aware of (mis-) configuring any Java system settings. Related seems https://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1166426 but this was fixed by compiling Eclipse differently, and doesn't explain why it runs fine with 15.1. System is stock OpenSuse Leap 15.2 fully updated (2020-04-07 19:30). -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

Let me know if you need anything to try or report. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

http://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1168899 http://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1168899#c2 --- Comment #2 from Walter Zimmer <walter.zimmer@dlr.de> --- Current status is as follows: * invocation of Eclipse for scientific computing 2020-03: crashes as before * invocation of Eclipse for scientific computing 2020-06: works!!! Didn't test thoroughly, but it shows the "Workspace" dialog and then the Eclipse main window, so if there is still anything wrong it is probably a different bug. People might still try the old versions, therefore a comment in the release notes would probably be helpful. So it's still a mystery where the reason for this incompatibility lies, but it's probably a lot of effort to find out. I don't know what happened behind the scenes, maybe it was a big effort to get the current version to run, so in any case: many thanks for all the work! -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
