Richard Drummonds new UAE 0.8.25

[kadi]

I still have a nasty bug.

When i start IBrowse it works perfect for the first time. The new improved bsdsocket emulation seems to work perfect.

But i cannot start IBrowse again after i closed it.

Under KDE the Mousepointer gets freezed and i have to log out and in.

Under Gnome just the emulator task crashes and gets discarded.

theres an output in the shell:

The same AmigaOS-Installation works perfect under winUAE, so i guess its a UAE thing rather tan a AmigaOS thing.

I have not this problem with the same version on Macosx (fink version with gnome & normal version).

I have tried the following software: (BSDsocket related)
IBrowse 2.3: working (Fast)
Voyager 3.3: working (slow - timeout in the terminal)
Amirc 3.5: Unusuable (Very slow - lot of timeout)
Thor 2.6: Working
newscoaster (version ?): Working
webvision 2.1: Seem to be working, but crashe Uae when i try to auto-update the list of webcams.

>But i cannot start IBrowse again after i closed it.

Well i finally found that bug.

I foud out that IBrowse crashes becaus of the file /cache/database/GlobalCache. When i delete it IBrowse is able to start and doesnt crash.

I beleve it's somthing to do with linuxfilesystem and missing protection bits on linux directorys.

i havnt tryed to create a hardfile to store the cachestuff on yet, i hope that'll finally fix my problems.

If that works, be sure to mention it to Richard, so he can put in a workaround in a future version of UAE.  I suspect this problem will not be confined to IBrowse, if it really turns out to be a filesystem permissions problem.

[kadi]

Yes i'll post that on the new mailinglist after i tryed a hardfile.

Hallo
So i already posted it in the ML now, but so far i didn't got the message back. I don't know if internet is just too slow or there is a problem with my mail outgoing server.

but someone els was so kind and already posted this tread to the list. So i better post my ML mail here too.
