Crashes: Pharo 1.3 + Cog VM 13307

Johan Brichau-2
Hi,

I have been running Pharo 1.3 (#13315) with a pre-built Cog VM's downloaded from Eliot's site in a reliable manner (i.e. very few crashes) for many months.

Just last week, I decided to try the Cog VM that is served from the Pharo website (Cog VM Mac-13307) and I am experiencing continuous crashes of the image. I am attaching a dump to this email.

Once I switched back to the latest VM served on Eliot's site (VM.r2522), I stopped experiencing these crashes.

If I experience this, probably other are too…

cheers,
Johan

yes... that version is old, and it has a bug who is fixed now.
Maybe we should update pharo site.

cheers,
Esteban

Just serving a Seaside app (but that makes it a quite broad 'cause')
I was hoping the crashlog points out where the problem is.

Yes, mac (it's mentioned in my email ;-)

> Did you try the latest version on jenkins because esteban merged changes?

not yet, I just downloaded that one too and will try.

My main point is that these two artefacts are the ones who are offered directly on the Pharo website. So people trying it, will probably experience these things to.
By downloading another VM, my problem was solved, but not everybody knows about all these different options.

So, I will try the latest VM from jenkins and let you know…

thanks for the feedback!

I do not know how to update the web site.
Now do you have a link on the working vm because we can add it to the forge and link to it.

I also don't know how to update site :( but latest working vm (with pharo icons :) is here:

In reply to this post by Stéphane Ducasse
btw... the bug was present also on other platforms, so... latest vm from unix would be:

https://ci.lille.inria.fr/pharo/view/VM/job/Cog-Unix/lastSuccessfulBuild/artifact/Cog.zip

I can create a pharo branded build (like I did for mac) for saturday.
Also, we don't have jenkins for windows, but I can compile one in my machine (also with pharo icons) and upload it somewhere (you have to tell me where) also on saturday :)

cheers,
Esteban

Beautiful !

Finally ;-)

I just changed the bundle name to plain 'Pharo' in the plist to match the executable's name (I didn't like the long 'Pharo (Cocoa) 32-bits' ;-)

Thx !

Hi Esteban,

Looks nice !
I'm wondering however what does version "Pharo VM 6.0-pre" mean (see
screenshot).

I'm (again) lost in all those version numbers.

The 'about' window tells me a bit more:

"Pharo VM 6.0-pre (21.0)"

Hi,

I'm means: "it should be version 6.0, but I'm still not confortable declaring it a production version"... so is a "pre-release". :P

and yes, I know what you feel about version numbers... we (guys working with vm) should find an unique versioning number. But is hard, right now we have this different numbering:

1) Eliot has his own version number (I think based on svn commit version)
2) Each platform (Linux, Windows and Mac) has his own versioning too.
3) There are also 4.x versions alive (for mac, at least)

I also don't know what does each version means (3.8 for unix, etc.). I named cocoa versions 6.x because older versions based on carbon where 5.x, so I thought: changing from carbon to cocoa is important enough to have a new major version... but I dunno.

And I don't know how can be merged anytime soon... :(

best,
Esteban

Ow ok !
I didn't know the numbering scheme and was wondering where the "6" came
from. Thanks for the overview :)

Anyway, thanks for your work on the VMs! We just need to get better at
public relations ;)

The old numbering system came from pre-Pharo days, when the VM was
just for Squeak.  In those days, the VM number was meant to sync with
the current Squeak image release - so vm 3.8 for Unix was the VM that
accompanied the Squeak 3.8 release, compiled for the Unix platform.
Each platform (and, indeed, each variant - such as Cocoa/Carbon) would
use the same main version number, but with some other distinction
built on (and these did change by platform).

Eliot's VM now supports a wide range of roughly compatible Smalltalks
(or near smalltalks), such as Pharo, Squeak, Croquet, Cuis, Newspeak,
and probably others.  In that environment, with each near-smalltalk
having their own numbering schemes, the old numbering convention just
doesn't make sense.  So, his using the apparent SVN commit number
makes as much sense as anything - probably a lot more than some.

As for what you should call the Pharo branded and tweaked versions,
that is obviously up to you.  I would suggest finding something that
makes it easy for us users to figure out which version of the PharoVM
works with which Pharo image, if possible.

Re: Crashes: Pharo 1.3 + Cog VM 13307

Thanks for the explanation, Chris.

I was thinking on using some of the eliot versions with my own builds, like this: 2222.01, and maybe unix/windows guys could do the same, so we need a prefix, something like 2222.M01 for mac, U01 for unix, W01 for windows...
... or something like that.
Anyway... this discussion borns in pharo list, but concerns more to vm-dev list. I'm copying email there :)

cheers,
Esteban

Sorry to annoy you with yet another stupid question but how can I know
from which CogVM the current Cocoa one is based on?

I'd like to know if the VM I use on my development machine (a mac) is
close to the one I have on my linux servers.

Or should I use the same Eliot VMs on both environments to avoid surprises ?

Yeah, I like it better when I can say

        ./pharo pharo-1.3.image

and when that appears in the ps tables ;-)

But it is not a deal breaker.
