NZBGet suddenly segfaulting

Post by xandora » 14 Apr 2021, 08:37

Not sure exactly where to begin with this one, very suddenly (within the last 24 hours) NZBGet has suddenly started to crash with a segfault error every few minutes.

Output from journalctl -f at crash time:

Code: Select all

Output from nzbget.log from starting the service to crash time:

Code: Select all

I attempted to mitigate this by installing a fresh copy of nzbget in an alternate location and simply supplying the previous installs nzbget.conf file as a test, but the crashes still persist.

After a suggestion to delete the nzb folder, in which there were an unbelievable amount of nzb files, normal service seems to have resumed.

See https://github.com/nzbget/nzbget/issues/744 and a proposed fix (with further technical explanation) in https://github.com/nzbget/nzbget/pull/745
