| Summary | 0004820: Segfault during Saving (when in Dropbox Folder) | ||||
| Description | I played DF on different computers, Notebook or Desktop, so I simply moved my DF into the Dropbox folder. However, when saving while dropbox runs, DF crashes with a segfault. The savegame seems to be okay tough. I suppose you read back something for exclusive lock, or delete some intermediary file, while dropbox is Syncing the changes. | ||||
| Steps To Reproduce | Install Dropbox, move DF into dropbox. Play and Save a fortress. | ||||
| Additional Information | This isn't cricial in any way. As the savegame seems to be okay. It just crashes. However, I've an ueasy feeling, if saving really went well, and not some obscure bugs sneak in, due to its segfault. I don't know how DF should behave, if it cannot delete it intermediary file, or whatever exclusive lock Dropbox is hindering DF to get. Wait a while and try again. Let it be? Anyway, Segfault is not the top choice :-) | ||||

Putting your save in Dropbox isn't supported. |

Its not directly related to Dropbox, it now works flawlessy on the other computer, while it still crashes on the other one, without dropbox running. BTW: Supported or not. +Never+ should be there a segfault. A segfault is always a bug. |

Reminder sent to: axkibe "Its not directly related to Dropbox, it now works flawlessy on the other computer, while it still crashes on the other one, without dropbox running." Okay, then you need to describe the crash on the "other one". Is the save in a Dropbox folder without Dropbox running or what? |
