[Icecast-dev] Segmentation fault issue with new install

[Jan-Pieter]

Hi all,

I am a long-time user of Icecast, always without problems. However i made a
new setup using icecast 2.4.1 on a fresh and quick CentOS VPS.

The issue is that starting icecast gives a segmentation fault at around 80%
of all starts. No core file nor a entry in error.log is posted. In the
remaining 20% of the starts icecast start with no problem.

Contents of the error.log with a succesfull start (20% of icecast starts):
[2015-04-25  21:08:40] INFO main/main Icecast 2.4.1 server started

Contents of error.log with a segmentation fault direct after start (80% of
icecast starts):
2015-04-25  21:09:05] INFO main/main Icecast 2.4.1 server started
[2015-04-25  21:09:05] INFO connection/get_ssl_certificate No SSL capability

Both the stream and the fallback file are .mp3 type. I tried removing the
fallback entry. Then icecast starts always normally. So it seems related to
the .mp3 fallback.

Also I tried to launch icecast with strace, and this NEVER fails. No
segmentation faults!


Any idea what's going wrong? Something going wrong with timing on a fast
server?

Thanks for your hints/tips!
