Got the full version, and here is the problem I've encountered:

Stack Size Problem
MUI NList object '0x09968D40' have found that the real stack size of the task 'ramlib' is only 6144 bytes.
The minimum stack size for MUI programs is 8 KB, and it's probably better to set it to 10 kb, 12Kb or 16 Kb...
NList object creation will fail until you'll set a correct value for it.

I tried StackAttack and MinStack but I keep getting the same error message :-? Any ideas?

Looks like someone is generating MUI objects in the ramlib context... tse tse.

Hi Cass,

you should follow this little undocumented instruction :-)

Install StackAttack2 without arguments.

Then, create and copy a dir in:

AMIGIFT:daemon/local/

called Aminet and download its Aminet.conf file from here (put it inside the Aminet dir)

Let me know :-)

EDIT- if you have downloaded the full archive yesterday, download it again today (it was corrupted)

amigift_v1.1.lha      Size:   2212464

The link above gives the same archive (maybe the corrupted one?).

I tried installing StackAttack2 (I really didn't know that there was a 2nd version, since I've never really needed it :-) ), and adding the .conf file , but with no luck. Appears the same error.

I've downloaded the released patch, and this did the trick!

 c:GPatch Libs/amigift.library ram:amigift.library_060.pch DIRECT
 Applying patches... OK
 Original file Libs/amigift.library replaced.

Adesso funziona a meraviglia!:-D Thanks for the help Framiga :pint:

@Framiga

StackAttack (any version) does NOT help with ramlib stack issues.

You need special Ramlib stack patch. There's one included in MMULib.lha (MMULib/Fixes/RamLibFix, MMULib/Fixes/Fixes.ReadMe for docs).

BlizKick also has a module that patches ROM to make Ramlib have 8k stack, fixing all related problems.


Anyway, this clearly was a bug in AmiGIFT (or rather nlist, like some friends were kind enough to point out :-)) and it was fixed. Ideally no such ramlib patch is needed, unless if you run buggy libs (for example Warp3D), classes or devices.

Hi Piru,

ok thanks . . .i have mcpralibpatch installed.

So this explain why those problem doesn't happens here :-)

Bye

I installed the amigift and work, but when i pick up the SEARCH button says this:

Amigift 1.167 (01.10.2004) 060
Got Unwanted assertion into _getconfigStr()
(function called from (null): $4705B4D0
./GetStuff.c:407:`!fh`
IoErr Contains:
"object not found"

What is it!!!!!!!!!??
help!

I had this same problem and apparently it
has to do with some experimental aminet
support.  I had to make a directory in
Daemon/local called "aminet" and copy the
config file into there, it is working good
on my PegII now.

You can try this:
makedir AMIGIFT:daemon/local/Aminet
echo "" >AMIGIFT:daemon/local/Aminet/Aminet.conf

Or get a config file here:
