 Post subject: Linux - Error: Stack overflow
PostPosted: Sun Apr 22, 2012 3:20 pm 
I changed from Windows to Linux and got some problems.

Old system (where everything works fine):
- Windows 7
- MapTool 1.3 b87
- MAXMEMSZ="256m"
- MINMEMSZ="64m"
- STACKSZ="2m"

New system:
- Linux Ubuntu 11.10 (64bit)
- OpenJDK Java 7 Runtime
- MapTool 1.3 b87
(where I gave up:)
- MAXMEMSZ="1024m"
- MINMEMSZ="512m"
- STACKSZ="200m"


1) There's no more window "MapTool Launcher Settings" when I start MT.

2) I used "dialog" in a token macro for background informations about a selected character. This isn't working anymore. Now I get an error message
Code:
<html>A stack overflow has occurred.<b>This is commonly because a macro being used has exceeded the stack space specified when MapTool was executed (...)


Cause I do not get a the Launcher Setting window, I modified the "launchMapToll.sh" file. But it doesn't matter whether the stack size is 2 or 200, I always get this error. Is there a way to control if MT really started the way was defined?

The macro looks like this:
Code:
[dialog("Text "): {
<br><b>Text </b>:  <br>
Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text Text <br>

I tried maptool-1.3.b88 which doesn't work with OpenJDK Java 7 Runtime at all. With OpenJDK Java 6 Runtime I got the error mentioned above.
So maybe I just need the proper Java Runtime and everything will be fine?

Try reducing stacksize to the old "2m". 200m ís way out of bounds.

MapTool does not work with OpenJDK. Swap it out with Oracle's version and see if the overflow goes away.

Ditto.... OpenJDK just plain blows. I was testing (for the first time really on this "newish" machine) and could not start a server. OpenJDK(1.6) showed my network address as 127.0.0.1 when checking in MapTool's start Connection information dialog as well as the system diagnostics. And I assume that that address just won't bind to a port (which it shouldn't.) I already had Oracle Java installed, so I did an update alternatives(using linux Mint, so Debian based) and boom... it picked up my "real" address right away and I was able to start a server correctly.

I save all my Campaign Files to DropBox. Not only can I access a campaign file from pretty much any OS that will run Maptool(Win,OSX, linux), but each file is versioned, so if something goes crazy wild, I can always roll back to a previous version of the same file.

Get your Dropbox 2GB via my referral link, and as a bonus, I get an extra 250 MB of space. Even if you don't don't use my link, I still enthusiastically recommend Dropbox..

Thanks for your relays.

I'll install Oracle's Java in a few weeks (after the actual running game is finished).

Not sure, not yet .. but it looks like a "maptool.sh" including
Code:
java -Xmx512M -Xms64M -Xss5M -jar /.../maptool-1.3.b82.jar

was all I needed.
