Bug Description
Binary package hint: azureus
New Azureus 2.5.0.0 hit the Edgy repositories earlier, however it crashes as soon as it has loaded and the main screen comes up. I already tried to remove azureus with purge and with and without the new azureus-gcj package.

With sun jre1.5 azureus not work.
With java-gcj work perfectly.
Use this:
sudo update-alternatives --config java
choose java-gcj
I need azureus work with sun java jre1.5 because I use mercury messenger that only work with sun jre1.5

This crash specifically happens when azureus tries to bring up a little pop-up window (the kind that say, e.g., "you did not shut down azureus properly")
tasadar_f: as a workaround, you can edit /usr/bin/azureus and, somewhere towards the top (anywhere above line 29) add a line that sets your desired JAVA_HOME. e.g.
JAVA_HOME=

It would be nice to have a azureusrc managed by ubuntu, allowing to override the JRE only for azureus on a user basis (as debian's eclipserc/JAVA_HOME for eclipse)

Still not fixed here.
I just installed Azureus and it keeps crashing with the Sun Jre (even if it does work with GCJ).
Will this bug be fixed soon cause it's a little bit confusing for a new user not to be able to lauch his favorite Bittorent manager ;)
(I'm using Azureus 2.5.0.0-0ubuntu2 @ Feisty)
alex f (acid-punk) wrote : | #7 |
I have these crashes as well. The error report always differs a little bit. I found that the reason why azureus keeps crashing, seems to be the log files in ~/.azureus/logs/ when I delete those azureus starts up again without crashing right again.
For example azureus logs in logs/alerts_1.log that I'm having NAT issues and it needs an open UDP port etc.
I'm not sure if switching from sun-jdk to gcj makes azureus not choke on these log files.
Bug #71220 might be a duplicate?
Sam Brightman (sambrightman) wrote : | #8 |
There is something odd going on here, possibly two separate bugs. I was going to confirm that it is not so much the log files as the informational box about them that is causing the crash (as per Michael Plump's comment https:/
However, renaming/removing the logs directory does also fix the problem (i.e. no need to switch to GCJ for one startup), but without displaying the message about not shutting down properly. Azureus has recreated the logs directory, debug_1.log and the save subdirectory. If I "killall java" now, Azureus still starts up properly the next time under Sun Java but *never* displays the message about not shutting down properly. My "save" subdirectory used to have things (copies of logs?) in, but now has nothing... I can't see why it works now but doesn't recognise that it failed to shut down properly (so I can't recreate anymore!).
Sam Brightman (sambrightman) wrote : | #9 |
After further investigation it seems that the contents of the .azureus/logs/save directory are what is used to determine whether it shut down properly. There is some kind of timestamp/unique id in the filenames, and it looks at the one for the previous launch when it starts. This is why removing the directory works. I couldn't reproduce because a "killall" of the Sun JVM doesn't seem to give azureus time to write into this directory (should this be another bug?). The following describes the possibilities:
1) Start Azureus under GCJ.
2) Issue "killall java" (don't be running other java programs). This should allow Azureus to write logs into logs/save to look for at next startup.
3) Start Azureus under GCJ, note that it works, gives error message about previous shutdown, shutdown properly.
4) Start Azureus under either JVM, note that acknowledging the message/correct shutdown has fixed the problem (presumably updated timestamp/unique id to look for in logs/save).
5) Repeat steps 1 and 2.
6) Remove .azureus/logs/save
7) Start Azureus under either JVM, note that it works.
8) Repeat steps 3 and 4.
9) Start under Sun JVM, note that it fails.
So either reading the previous shutdown error in .azureus/logs/save or displaying the message about it fails under Sun JVM (1.5). GIven that these informational messages have had problems in the past and the hotspot error seems to talk about moving/resizing GUI stuff, I think it has to be the display of the dialog. Can other people confirm this?

I'm getting the exact same crash as Nelson Benitez. Sometimes it starts, sometimes it crashes. I'm running the 2.5.0.0 package on the latest Fesity. Installing and running upstream's 2.5.0.2 packages fixes this bug 100%.
Is there any chance we could get 2.5.0.2 into Feisty for release? 2.5.0.0 leaks memory pretty bad and drives my machine into deep swap if I leave it on overnight (usually I wake up to a half-dead machine with tons of OOM killer notifications in the log). 2.5.0.2 can run on my machine for weeks with no problem.

Sam Brightman (sambrightman) wrote : Re: Azureus 2.5.0.0 crashes | #16 |
I should add that my earlier comment was wrong to advise running under GCJ as a workaround - this will indeed fix the problem with crashing on startup when there is an informational message to be displayed (without having to delete the logs), but as some people are reporting Azureus then crashes randomly after that. These random crashes do not/have never happened with Sun Java, so I'm not sure if Christian's comment is relevant - unless you are also saying that it can now show informational messages on startup under your configuration? I wouldn't know as I haven't kept up-to-date recently.
Bogdan Butnaru (bogdanb) wrote : | #17 |
As a summary for anyone who might work on this:
1) Running under GCJ fixes the crash on start for me, but it seems to use at least three time more memory and processor, so I didn't run it long enough to discover more crashes.
2) Under Java, it seems to crash whenever anything goes wrong:
a) if the WiFi connection drops temporarily. By the way, if I turn from WiFi to Ethernet Azureus crashes on start for ever, even with GCJ, until I re-enable WiFi.
b) I have Azureus move files on an almost-always connected USB drive. If it's read-only or not connected, it crashes.
c) if anything unusual happens to the files it's using (like, if I delete or move by mistake a file that's being written to or read from.
d) if the gnome-panel is restarted (!) as a result of an update. (No other program crashes in that case.)
Usually these can be worked around by fixing the cause, then deleting the crash report and the log. Unfortunately, sometimes there's something wrong with the config file, which needs deleting the whole ~/.azureus directory and manually re-configuring and re-starting the torrents. Which is annoying.
Seeing as it seems to crash whenever anything unusual happens, as well as on startup after it, I think it's related in all cases to the warning dialog it tries to show. (Someone earlier pointed out it's the pop-up window that seems to be the problem.) I couldn't find a way to disable warnings, but I just toggled all related options to see if it changes anything (sliding, on top, auto-hide).
Bogdan Butnaru (bogdanb) wrote : | #18 |
After I disabled the sliding animation/on top for error dialogs --- see Options/
I just restarted my computer because of a display bug, and Azureus was running. Usually that means that it will crash on restart, unless I delete the log/crash files. However, now it just displayed a normal dialog warning me of it not being closed normally, and then everything worked normally.
The bug is still there, I suppose, but this is a good work-around until it will be fixed.

I will be running Azureus semi-headless by using a VNC X server on my fileserver. I've had trouble getting Azureus running on it regardless of which JVM I've tried (though I was going between Sun Java 6 and GCJ's).
After watching the messages, I decided to try something different. Run Azureus on one computer while displaying it on another.
Here are my results:
Ubuntu Feisty machine:
vnc4server + Azureus + Sun Java 6 (all on above server) == Crash at some point or another.
Ubuntu Feisty machine + Debian Sarge machine with bits of Sid:
(vnc4server on Debian machine) + (Azureus and Sun Java 6 on Ubuntu machine as above) == Solidly fires right up and works.
This seems to apply both to the Ubuntu-packaged and upstream versions of Azureus.
I downloaded smallish file and it worked just fine.
However, I haven't tried running long torrents on this machine since it has a very small hard drive in it (4GB) to test reliability as all the big drives I intend to use with this install are in the Debian machine. Nor have I tried to run it displaying on a "real" X server since this machine will never be running one to begin with once it's in production mode.
Further, the "working" setup is a suboptimal setup because I'm fully intent on decommissioning the Debian install in favor of the Ubuntu install by moving it into the box which is presently running the Debian install.

James, could you possibly try with 2.5.0.0 but from the site rather than repositories. I'm sure that someone said that this version worked too, it would be good to clarify that it's getting it from the site, rather than the new version as such that solves the problem. (or not).

Another Data Point:
JVM = Java 6
I definitely *had* problems with Azureus in Feisty. If it was shut down irregularly, it was not possible to restart, as it would always crash just after splash screen. Deleting the logs fixed it as a workaround.
Currently, after recent azureus package updates, everything works perfectly on Feisty with Java 6. If Azureus shuts down abruptly, it comes back up normally, showing the little slide-up notifier about irregular shutdown that apparently used to cause the crash.
For me, this bug is fixed in Feisty. Have not tested under Dapper or Edgy.

In my case, here is what I'm seeing:
Azureus (stock or Universe) on Ubuntu Feisty Server fileserver -> Xorg X server on a Kubuntu Feisty desktop: Works fine
Azureus (stock or Universe) on Ubuntu Feisty Server fileserver -> Xorg X server on a Ubuntu Feisty Server fileserver: I don't know; I operate that machine headless.
Azureus (stock or Universe) on Ubuntu Feisty Server fileserver or Kubuntu Feisty dektop -> VNC4Server on either machine: Fails (This is the configuration I want/need since the machine is headless and I'd just as soon keep it that way).
I do most of my torrenting from my fileserver so I can free up my desktops, and since that machine runs headless, I use the VNC X server. Since this configuration does not work and since my fileserver is not a desktop by nature, I have to tell it to connect to another computer over the network to a machine running a normal X server. Then I use x11vnc so I can look at that machine from afar. I would rather have the VNC4 X server and Azureus both run on the fileserver.
All machines involved are i386-class machines (AMD Athlon XP 2100+ on the desk; Duron 1600 on the server), thus they are running the i386 version of (Ku|U)buntu.
And in all cases, the JVM in use is Sun Java 1.6.0-b105 (installed via the "sun-java6-jre" package).
Elsewhere, I'd seen it suggested it might be a version of libxfixes' being "too new" for the X server. I forget where offhand.

Please test with sun-java5-jre, I have heard through a trusted source
that jre6 has compatibility problems and has been avoided in some very
large production environments.

That was a pretty good suggestion.
However, when I tested with Java 1.5.0_11 as apt-gotten from the repositories, I'm seeing the exact same results as I had originally desdribed above.
After this round of testing, here's what I'm seeing:
--It does not appear to be the JRE. When I use Xorg on the same or a different machine or Mocha X on a different machine, regardless of whether it's Sun Java 5 or 6 behind Azureus, it works perfectly).
--It does not appear the method of connecting to the X server matters. I tried on same machine and over a network; it consistently worked with Xorg on same and different machines and with Mocha X on a different machine; it consistently failed with VNC4Server on same and other machine and X-Deep 32 4.0 on another machine).
--It does not appear to be installation-
--It does not appear that where you get Azureus itself matters. I tried the Universe version and the official distribution copy from SF. Both consistently work with Xorg and consistently fail with VNC4Server.
--It DOES appear that it is a VNC4Server issue for me.
All of the foregoing assumes a Feisty Ubuntu distribution and software therein, with the sole exception of the official version of Azureus and everything being fully apt-get upgraded to the most recent versions.
Basically, it works fine with Kubuntu and all-current versions of installed libraries, both available Sun JREs, and most recent Xorg server on the same machine. It works fine on Ubuntu server with Xorg running on another machine entirely with various considerations taken into account so remote clients can connect. It dies on VNC4Server, same- or different-machine.
Conclusion: Either the X server (in my case and apropos to Ubuntu, VNC4Server) or X libraries used by the JRE are at fault. Since there may be other interactions going on at the library level, I'm reluctant to completely rule them out unless there's a good way of testing that.
I will continue to follow this ticket, but I will check things out on the VNC4Server package now.

FOOTNOTE: I took my testing a few steps further and used two Windows X servers, X-Deep 32 4.0 when it was freeware and Mocha X which currently has a freeware offering (http://

Acutally, bug 78282 seems to be more like it in this case. However, thanks for the clue on that one. The bug you reference pointed to that one as a possible "duplicate" and that one had a solution I could actually use in the meantime. Use the TightVNC server instead.

Sam Brightman (sambrightman) wrote : | #38 |
Yes, I think the VNC issues may just complicate matters.
At this point it sounds like it is still unconfirmed what precise combination causes this problem.
Options:
Compiler - people have said that upstream works, but as far as I can tell no-one has tried a matching version (i.e. 2.5.0.0 upstream). James attempted to but had further package configuration problems that prevented him seeing it through.
Runtime - am I write in saying no-one has this problem (i.e. sees notification windows without a crash) with Java 6? Thom seems to say that he did have a problem with Java 6 in the past, I believe I did, but have lost track of the versions and package updates recently - been moving and am without net connection on linux pc.
Code - it is genuinely fixed somewhere in the 2.5.0.0 -> 2.5.0.4 transition (i.e. on all configurations)
Packaging etc. - not likely but possible.

The scope of this bug started with azureus crashing with sun jre (on xorg). This bug hasn't seen much in the way of developer attention so it can *not* suffer from scope creep.
Bug #78294 already covers the crash with vnc4server.
Azureus should not crash when communicating with alternate X servers, but that does not mean it should be covered with this bug report. To keep this bug from suffering scope creep, I suggest that a bug be filed against azureus for each X server with which it crashes.
Sam Brightman (sambrightman) wrote : | #42 |
Perhaps I wasn't clear enough in my comment above then. I am specifically agreeing with you that VNC is not relevant here, hence my query as to why the package is listed as vnc4. I am also agreeing that we should focus on one bug, and have made effort here and elsewhere to make sure duplicates are correct and direct people to the main bugs.
I am trying to establish precisely what causes the bug, on Sun, on X.org. The original bug report actually states that it fails with azureus-gcj too. People have suggested that the upstream version works, which is possibly a different compiler to that used by Ubuntu - so it may not be that it is a code fix, but rather would still exist if a Ubuntu-compiled 2.5.0.4 went into repositories. There is suggestion that this may be fixed by Java 6. I might be wrong here, but isn't Java 5 still in Feisty anyway? I don't think it's clear that it's fixed in Feisty at all (using Sun, X.org). I *believe* it's fixed with Java 6 on Feisty. But if Java 5 is still in Feisty that would still fall under the scope of this bug.

Oops, you're right. I have marked this bug as "rejected" against vnc4 on feisty and fix committed against azureus on feisty. Please correct it if "rejected" is the wrong status.
I suspect the problem is outside of azureus, in a library, possibly like what bug 70113 claims. I have seen the problem with sun-java5-jre and sun-java6-jre when using xorg, both with Edgy, but not with Feisty. Notice that most of the changes between Azureus on Edgy and Feisty is the library environment. That leads me to give it more weight, but I have not looked into it myself.
I have not been able to reproduce the problem with azureus+
The Ubuntu Azureus package has several patches in it, mostly for gcj compatibility. That is the reason why testing with the upstream 2.5.0.0 was requested. I don't think there is anything wrong with the java5 packages in Ubuntu.

However, as far as I'm aware the repack was targetted at other bugs. It is possible that this bug is also solved by updating the graphics, since it is a UI issue. But it also seems likely that people reporting here are confusing it with e.g. bug 57875, which is subject to a "proposed" fix.
As far as I'm aware this *particular* bug (crash trying to show sliding notification) has never been a problem under GCJ. I hope to do some proper investigation tonight.

Furion, more information would be required to be able to help identify the problem, but it doesn't look the same as this bug. Have you looked at other startup bugs? You need to tell us:
What you were doing at the time of the crash
What you expected to happen/what went wrong
Java version (type "java -version" into a terminal)
Azureus version ("dpkg -l azureus*")
Which Ubuntu version (Edgy/Feisty etc.)
Anything else that people can think of?

Sam, the environment of each comment needs to be taken into account. In bug #68020 comment 6 iKs is running a pre-release version of Feisty in December 2006. The same with Scott is getting the same error as Nelson running sun java 5 so that isn't under gcj. That would fall under the classification of the Edgy release since this bug isn't fixed there yet.
That leads me to say leave it marked fixed on feisty until someone says otherwise. Or maybe it should be "needs info" on feisty?
---------------
Furion, also be sure to install these debugging header packages:
apt-get install libgtk2.0-0-dbg libglib2.0-0-dbg

I had not taken into account that dates, quite right. I had also missed Nelson's first comment. Could you clarify: are Feisty pre-release issues automatically Edgy issues or are you saying Java 5 isn't in Feisty? I was sure I saw it on the list somewhere, nearly installed by accident.
My concern about the status was only that there has been only one real confirmation working on Feisty, by Thom (and you?), and that caused by an unrelated repack. Just suggests to me that the "real" bug is still in the code, VM etc. somewhere (or not, could just be the graphics caused this as well, point is cause is still unknown).

Some more info.
The bug I experienced was definitely the sliding window bug. This was definitely and immediately fixed by an update. I subscribe to the proposed update channel so I got the fix early. Since then it has never crashed using Java 6. Prior to the update, it crashed during startup anytime azureus was terminated abruptly (like when it gobbles so much memory that it hangs the whole computer ;) )
Since downloading the patch, the problem has not recurred. Indeed, I now see the sliding notification window on startup instead of watching it crash.
since i subscribe to proposed updates, i probably got this patch sooner than most people.

Anyway. This is why I have been trying to get people to compare like-for-like versions of Azureus - many people have said "this is crap, let's get 2.5.0.4 into repos" without actually showing that it's fixed in there. Since they get it from upstream, it could have been compiled/packaged differently. At one point I thought someone was saying that 2.5.0.0 upstream was working, ruling out a code fix from 2.5.0.0 -> 2.5.0.4. I am still without net connection at home at the moment, but have 2.5.0.0 in Eclipse. I will try to get it working with both compilers/runtimes to see if there is a difference but it may be quicker if someone could get upstream 2.5.0.0 and slot it in to see what happens.

Also, as to removing the theme patch being a workaround, it is a source code patch that is attempting to add functionality (look like a gtk app instead of a java app). So removing the patch makes things work again, just like the upstream code.

I had a variety of azureus-related problems/crashes, and was able to fix all of them by first manually installing the Java 6 JRE from the Sun website (the default package seems to use a 32-bit version which doesn't work correctly), switching from java-gcj to jre, and then replacing the Azureus2.jar provided (which is version 2.5.0.0) with a newer one, either 2.5.0.4 or 3.0.2.2. I'm currently running 3.0.2.3 beta without any problem.
I'd suggest upgrading this package by including the jar from version 2.5.0.4 instead, and correctly adding a 64-bit package for the JRE.

I have been absent from this for a while, and in no way helpful in producing the fix, but I must say that I don't think these bugs should all be marked dups. They are different bugs, and should stay as such. My understanding is that the "fix" effectively just drops support for gcj - for some people this is not acceptable (it is for me, though, for now). If support for gcj was ever needed again, for example, these bugs would most definitely be separate, and we've only lost information by conflating them.

It can be uninstalled the usual way, it's in the list of programs accessible

I doubt it can upgrade itself--that'd require root access to be able to modify
