VB6 Program Crashing: Part 2. Advice on fixing Access Violation (0xC00000005)

Related to this question. Any advice on fixing the problem below? After a lot of experimentation with the program, I have discovered several things. It crashes relatively consistently (90% of the time or so) upon running the line of code, Set Message = New CAPICOM.EncryptedData. Note that the line above this is merely Dim Message As...

Static memory allocation in Vista results in crash?

I'm using Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Express, and have a pretty annoying problem. It doesn't seem to happen in XP but in Vista I can't find a way around it. Whenever I declare variables non-dynamically, if their combined size exceeds about 30mb, the program will crash immediately at start-up. I know that Vista limits non-Win32 apps to 32m...

Best Flags for Crash dumps

I currently have some code that will produce a crash dump when my application crashes however i cant work out what are the best flags to use for it are. At the moment i have it using Full Memory (MiniDumpWithFullMemory) but this produces 32mg crash files. What flags should i use as to not make the crash file huge but give me the most po...

Crashed SVN repository

Today our virtual W2003 server storing our SVN repository (too) became very-very busy. It turned out that it had only 88KB free space left on the C: drive. Not that good. Due to access problems, the only way we could reboot it by killing the busy processes from task manager (McAffee, SqlServer, services.exe) and then gracefully reboot. W...

what does it mean when a bug doesn't crash the program

The title says it all. No dire need to know, I'm just curious. Sometimes Eclipse comes up saying "hey you should debug this line!!!" but doesn't actually close the program. I can then continue to play big two, and even go through the same events that caused the error the first time and get another error box to pop up! The bug is simple,...

How can I debug a win32 process that unexpectedly terminates silently?

I have a Windows application written in C++ that occasionally evaporates. I use the word evaporate because there is nothing left behind: no "we're sorry" message from Windows, no crash dump from the Dr. Watson facility... On the one occasion the crash occurred under the debugger, the debugger did not break---it showed the application s...

crash on vector::push_back

I have a vector that contains POSITIONs. When I try to push_back or clear, the program crashes. The callstack shows _invalid_parameter_noinfo in one of the frames. I googled and found a solution(defining _HAS_ITERA.... and _SECURE_SCL to 0) , but was not effective. I'm using VS2008 with MFC feature pack installed on vista. Please help. ...

Debugging Solaris OS crash

I have access to a remote Solaris terminal which crashes occasionally, and I have to ask someone with physical access to boot the machine up, which it does successfully. I would like to know which tools/files should I look at to find out the cause of the crash so that I can make the necessary configuration changes and avoid it in the fut...

What causes the MS Windows 'System' Process to go nuts when compiling?

A couple of times recently I have noticed that 'something' is causing the Windows System Process to sit at 50+% and it will not quit until the PC is rebooted. Happening on Win2k and Win XP so far. This is particularly troublesome because it currently appears to be triggered by MSVC 2005/Incredibuild and rebooting the build servers is n...

phpMyAdmin crashing the MySQL host server

I have encountered this problem a couple of times, in the last few days. So, it happens occasionally. I have setup mysql on a remote machine, and there is a java program on another machine querying the database to read and write records every few seconds. I am using phpMyAdmin to administer my database. And, at times, after running som...

Visual Studio 2008 crashes when trying to load solution file

When I try to load a solution in Visual Studio 2008, it immediately closes. I get the following error in the event log: .NET Runtime version 2.0.50727.3053 - Fatal Execution Engine Error (6E875E00) (80131506) I've searched the web high and low and can't find a resolution to this problem. I've found similar issues, but none of t...

What can we do about a randomly crashing app without source code?

I am trying to help a client with a problem, but I am running out of ideas. They have a custom, written in house application that runs on a schedule, but it crashes. I don't know how long it has been like this, so I don't think I can trace the crashes back to any particular software updates. The most unfortunate part is there is no longe...

What could cause a VB.NET application to crash before running any code?

My VB.NET application compiles, installs and works fine on the development PC. However, when I take the install package elsewhere, it installs ok but crashes before any code is executed. The error is " has encountered a problem and needs to close..." I have removed all references to external files e.g. icon files etc. I have only one...

Unknown crash in a C++ Memory Pointers Exercise

I recently wrote a program to help me understand the basics of memory pointers in C++, I chose a simple prime number finder. I finally got it to work. (yay for debugging!) And I let it run to see how far it goes, it gets to prime #815389 with my verbose tells me is the 65076th prime, I get an app crash. The one thing I could think of w...

Why do I need to restart Delphi 7 to get the debugger to work sometimes.

I've been meaning to ask this question for a while, at least 4 times a day I need to restart Delphi to get the debugger to stop at breakpoints again. Sometimes I can trick it into working again by attaching to the process after a rebuild of the code. But most of the time I can't and it is costing me a lot of time to go back and re-open...

Why does my Service crash at DebugBreak() on Vista?

I'm writing a Win32 service in C++. I have a custom Assert macro that calls DebugBreak() (among other things). When I'm running my service under Vista, the service crashes when reaching the DebugBreak() call (an int 3 assembler opcode), showing the vista crash dialog. The error code is 80000003 (hardcoded breakpoint). Normally I'm expec...

I have checked 100% I am closing all handles on a file I recently created. But when I call "opendialog.execute;" the dialog pop up as usual but on the mouse over hint of a recently created file the entire thing crashes with a out of bounds error. I know this is not any of my out of bounds as if I open the file without causing a (onhint)...
