Title: aMule does not start at all
Post by: LAZA on September 18, 2016, 04:16:28 PM
Hai all,

since a update of Manjaro 16.06 aMule is not able to start anymore.

Error:
Code: [Select]
$ amule
[1]+  Ungültiger Maschinenbefehl   (Speicherabzug geschrieben) amule
Ungültiger Maschinenbefehl (Speicherabzug geschrieben)

More details:

Thanks for looking into this.
If you need more informations please ask for it.

Hardware see attachment.

Tried 4 different kernels:
4.8 rc6
4.7
4.4
4.1

Also different versions - older ones give me a different error:

Code: [Select]
$ amule
amule: symbol lookup error: amule: undefined symbol: _ZN8CryptoPP15DEFAULT_CHANNELE

Solved:

A updated crypto++ package caused the trouble.

BUT:
aMule crashes right after the start cause of the mix of compiler versions...   :-[

aMule crashed after a Linux update.
It will not launch.
I am running Peppermint.

"It will not launch" is of not much help. Please try to run it from a terminal and post any messages you get.

Thank you for bearing with me.
I hope this is what you request.

I guess you were using a non-default skin. Please, open ~/.aMule/amule.conf in a text editor, locate the line starting with "Skin=" (without the quotes), and delete any text after the equation sign. Save the file, and hopefully you'll be able to start your aMule.

Thank you. I shall try that.
I am currently running on Win (aMule works fine on it)
but will get back on Linux this afternoon.

To be honest, I was tinkering with various skins just before the crash.

I will get back to you and advise how this went.
Thank you again for helping me.

I knew that  8) The crash is caused by a wrong-sized image in one of the skins. If you'd like to try the skins, you can download the fixed ones from 2.3.2 (https://github.com/amule-project/amule/tree/5d9c1f458c6dd4389b16862025f3504fb76c1156/src/skins) and replace the broken ones with them.

Mmmm ... my Linux ignorance is shameful.
Entered ~/.aMule/amule.conf into text editor Pluma ---> nothing.
Entered ~/.aMule/amule.conf into Terminal ---> nothing.
Uninstalled aMule, then reinstalled ---> nothing.
I know the fault is mine.
Tempted to uninstall Ubuntu, then start all over again.
Switching over to Win now.  Have a lot of work to do.
Will return to Linux tonight.
Thank you.

Gonosz, I got it working after all!
Took awhile.  I did Alt Home, then Control H to find the conf file.
Then it was simple.
Thank you so much for helping me!

OK, going to revive this a bit.
After an Ubuntu update, I could not get amule to start.
I did some research and opened amule in the terminal.
It showed a file in amule called "muleLock."
I deleted that "muleLock" file and it opened fine.
I am posting this because I am sure this will occur again and I won't remember the solution.
This is the first place I check.
