2.80 (14103) crashes on OS X v10.8.4 with EXC_BAD_ACCESS

Post by bvr »

Transmission 2.80 (14103) sometimes crashes on OS X v10.8.4 with EXC_BAD_ACCESS when pausing a torrent by clicking the per torrent pause button. I’m afraid I have not been able to determine the precise conditions needed to trigger this crash.

I’m attaching two crash reports:

I had already visited the builds page but the last available build is 14102, whereas 2.80 is 14103. Would an earlier build actually help?

Transmission 2.80 has just crashed again. I used the 14102 build but, as far as I can tell, the only additional information is symbolication, which the developers could derive from the corresponding .dSYM file. I believe symbolication yields a more reliable crash reporting workflow than relying on users running parallel debug builds.

I’ve filed a Trac ticket; it’s currently waiting for moderation approval.

I'm seeing the same crashes here with Transmission 2.80 on Mac OS X 10.7.5. The crashes seem to happen at random. The first time was when I was using the remote GUI. It crashed again last night in the middle of the night with no interaction from me. The only thing I can think of that's changed as a recent security patch from Apple.

If it happens again, I'll try the previous advice and try build 14102.

Up until a few days ago, Transmission never crashed on be before.
