[Roboticsprimer-users] Segmentation fault in intro

[Robotics P. u. h. l. <rob...@li...>]

I get a Segmentation fault  when running intro
john@john-desktop:~/roboticsprimer-0.1/exercises/01_introduction/gumstix$ ./intro client.xml
Loading config file[client.xml]
Trying to connect to [192.168.1.102:6665]

playerc error   : got NACK from request
playerc error   : got NACK from request

over on the gumstix it says the following but does not crash

# ./player roomba.cfg

Opening connection to Roomba on /dev/ttyS2...Done.
Listening on ports: 6665 
accepted client 0 on port 6665, fd 9
warning : Unhandled message for driver device=16777343:6665:4:0 type=3 subtype=2 len=1

warning : Unhandled message for driver device=16777343:6665:4:0 type=3 subtype=2 len=1

warning : other error on client 0
closing connection to client 0 on port 6665

My roomba.cfg is as follows:-
driver                                                                          
(                                                                               
  name "roomba"                                                                 
  provides ["position2d:0" "power:0" "bumper:0"]                                
  port "/dev/ttyS2"                                                             
  alwayson 1                                                                    
)                                            

It looks, to me, as if, at least sometimes, the communications works, and player is doing what it is supposed to do. Thus this is a problem with the intro code. 
Seg. fault seems rather severe!

Questions
1) Why is intro seg. faulting?
2) Do you have any advice on debugging our robot control code on the development computer? For example, can one use gdb? and if so how?

[Roboticsprimer-users] Segmentation fault in intro

[Robotics P. u. h. l. <rob...@li...>]

I still getting the following. 

root@john-desktop:~/roboticsprimer-0.1/exercises/01_introduction/gumstix# ./intro client.xml
Loading config file[client.xml]
Trying to connect to [192.168.1.102:6665]
calling connect

ID Count[3]
Load Proxy[POSITION][0] Name[roomba]
Load Proxy[POWER][0] Name[roomba]
Load Proxy[BUMPER][0] Name[roomba]
playerc error   : poll call failed with error [0:Success]
playerc error   : recv failed with error [Success]
warning : failed to reconnect
terminate called after throwing an instance of 'PlayerCc::PlayerError'
Aborted (core dumped)
root@john-desktop:~/roboticsprimer-0.1/exercises/01_introduction/gumstix# 

I have re-downloaded and re-compiled, player and gumstix-buildroot
and messed around a bit with gdb.
 
After loading the proxies in Client.cc it does a
 this->player->Read();
This is the call that fails 

Question
1) Does any one  know the reasons Read would fail?
2) The message says "failed to reconnect" does that imply that the connection
     was established, broken, and not re-established?

Hello,

Do you have the same version of player installed on both the gumstix
and your pc?
