Title: problem launching amuled
Post by: ggd on November 25, 2005, 12:12:14 PM

hello,
i'm trying to use amuled but i can't get it to lauch properly.
there seems to be a mutex problem :

ggd$ src/amuled -->

Error: Could not unlock mutex (error 2: No such file or directory)
amuled: OnInit - starting timer
Initialising aMule
Checking if there is an instance already running...
12:10:30: Error: Could not unlock mutex (error 2: No such file or directory)
12:10:30: Error: Could not unlock mutex (error 2: No such file or directory)
...(many times)
...
----------------------------=| BACKTRACE FOLLOWS: |=----------------------------
Current version is: aMuled 2.0.3 using wxMac v2.6.2 (Unicoded)
Running on: MacOS (Darwin 8.3.0 Power Macintosh)

--== no BACKTRACE for your platform ==--


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Abort trap

i'm using XCode2.2 with gcc-4.0.1.
i've configured with options:
 --disable-systray
 --disable-gtk  
 --with-wx-config=../wxMac-2.6.2/build/wx-config
 --disable-monolithic
 --enable-amule-daemon

i also got some warnings (including a final warning about gd-lib >= 2.0.0 missing) when compiling but, well, it's just warnings...

Do someone have a clue about what's going wrong?

thanks

I don't know what's going wrong for you.  It works for me here.

Try running amuled within gdb and producing a good backtrace.  See this wiki page (http://www.amule.org/wiki/index.php/Backtraces).

For Mac specific instructions on how to generate a backtrace using gdb, see this sticky thread (http://forum.amule.org/thread.php?threadid=7670&sid=). :)
