when Interpolate objects msg popup Inkscape encountered internal error

[Kaatil]

While interpolating two objects it shows that it has found an internal problem and shuts the program.

Many times I tries to work with interpolate but as when I am using Extensions > Generate from path > Interpolate
It show error that Inkscape en-countered internal problem.

Please sp;ve this problem and tell me whether I have to re-install or not as I have already re-installed the same but no progress happened.

Regards
KAATIL

System Info:
Windows XP, Inkscape version 0.48.2

[Alvin Penner (apenner)]

not reproduced on Windows 7, Inkscape 0.48.3.1, attached is a simple example of interpolation.
could you provide details of which OS, and Inkscape version, and attach the file with the two objects you are using?

[Alvin Penner (apenner)]

do you also encounter the same problem if you use a related extension like generate from Path->Extrude

[su_v (suv-lp)]

Based on the additional line of information in the duplicate report:
> The same problem also happens when I am using any help files.

possibly the same issue as
 Bug #649050 "Inkscape: All functions in Extention menu fail plus most in Help menu"
which itself is a duplicate of
 Bug #643272 "[win32] 0.48; extensions do not work"

[Kaatil (kaatil)]

Yeah Alvin I also received an error when I use any related extensions from generate from path, please guide to solve this issue.

[Alvin Penner (apenner)]

the most recent release, Inkscape-0.48.3.1-1.exe, is available at

http://sourceforge.net/projects/inkscape/files/inkscape/0.48.3.1/

[Kaatil (kaatil)]

Dear

This is humble request to please give me the installation latest version of inkscape to this email.
I went to the below SITE which was referred by you for downloading the latest version of Inkscape but every time it says
Quote: Your Inkscape download will start Automatically...
Problems with the download? Check your browser's security bar, or try a direct link, or try another mirror.
UnQuote
And hence no files downloaded I tried to download six times but all the times it says same but nothing happened.

This is request to please attach latest installation version of Inkscape the copy you have to this email.

Best Regards (Inconvinience Cause is regretted)
Kaatil

[diqrtvpe (ccollett)]

I also just ran across this bug. I'm using Inkscape 0.48.3.1 on Ubuntu 12.04, and it so far only happens with one file, which I have attached. On the right of the image there are two lines, a dark grey and a light grey, and attempting to interpolate between the two, exponent 0.0, 50 steps, method 2, duplicating endpaths and style, always crashes. This is a reasonably recent development, as the last time I tried to do this interpolation, a month or two ago, it worked without issue.

Here is the backtrace:

@diqrtvpe - the regression you report for Inkscape 0.48.3.1 is tracked in
Bug #944077 “inkscape crashed with SIGSEGV in Inkscape::Extension::Implementation::Script::effect()”
<https://bugs.launchpad.net/inkscape/+bug/944077>

(The fix is already committed and will be available in the next planned bug-fix release 0.48.4).

[su_v (suv-lp)]

@Kaatil - did you manage to install the newer version of Inkscape, and if so, does the newer version also crash whenever trying to run an extension, or opening a item from the 'Help' menu?
