Bug: Vassal Private Message causes hang or crash

marktb1961 · September 23, 2020, 11:09am

Platform as per signature.

In a Vassal v3.4.2 online session, I am consistently getting crashes when I try to send someone else a Private Message. When someone tried to send me a Private Message, the Private Message window appeared but Vassal was frozen from that point and I have to kill it and restart.

Is this the same for anyone else ?

Does the whole JVM crash or freeze?

Anything interesting in the error log after that happens?

marktb1961 · September 23, 2020, 1:42pm

The other person sending me a PM caused the freeze; I ended up killing off Vassal completely. I can’t be sure so I need to test this some more. I will try myself from two sessions when I get a chance; unless anything is obvious to developers from this log…

…it was taken around the time of the crashes. First error was the freeze and I think the log file starts after that. Second one was a more typical Vassal crash where the module was still active after the error message - this error was triggered when I tried trying to send a PM and I have noticed this before under v3.4.2 but not previously. I notice one particular error a few lines into the log: java.lang.NegativeArraySizeException: -40

Negative array size, and no Vassal code in the stacktrace. Fun times

uckelman · September 24, 2020, 12:21am

Is the exception repeatable when you try to send a PM? Do you recall at exactly what point the exception happened?

marktb1961 · September 24, 2020, 6:56pm

The error is consistantly repeated for me. Also, a gaming buddy told me that he was experiencing the same problem. We both use Mac but he is on Linux.

Here is the log from the time it happened this afternoon, both of us on v3.4.3 This time, I tried to send a PM and the whole Vassal (JVM?) session hung up. On my buddy’s advice, I waited rather than terminating the session. After about a minute or so, the Vassal session gave the crash dump. Here is the last part; once against showing the array out of bounds error.

Hi Joel - Thank you. That fix tests out fine - using MacOs to Linux (Fedora, on an old intel laptop).

At the Linux end (still running v3.4.2) when the first message was received, a message popped up about being out of memory, “please increase Max Heap and restart”. Max Heap was already 1024MB, also the module seemed to be otherwise ok - so I didn’t increase it but instead restarted & resynched. A repeat of the message send didn’t trigger the warning message. Maybe nothing to do with this issue, and anyway, it was on v3.4.2 as I said.
