Re: [Arsperl-users] Solaris compile problems with 1.90 * GetEntryBLOB core dumps

[Allan Y. <AY...@si...>]

Great! The strdup fixed the core dump problem (I was using
AR_LOC_FILENAME).

Now I am getting SQL errors retrieving large attachments. A 4M
attachment comes across fine, but a 65M one returns an SQL error.
Anybody run into this before?

GetEntryBLOB core dumps

ARSperl 1.90 doesn't support ARS 4.0 any more.

Concerning the core dump, do you call ars_GetEntryBLOB with=20
AR_LOC_BUFFER or AR_LOC_FILENAME? Does the core dump occur with both of=20
those variants?

If it occurs only with AR_LOC_FILENAME, it might help to change line 756

of the file "ARS.xs" from

   loc.u.filename =3D locFile;

to

   loc.u.filename =3D strdup(locFile);

and compile again. (The line number refers to ARS.xs in version 1.90 and

might be different in 1.85)
