I have been trying to find an energy efficient way of running a
server so I have been working on virtual machines and standalone
computers for a while.
I first tried to install it on Ubuntu 10 on a VM Server I gave up
when I could not get the Signalink USB to transfer any
information. Same situation using VirtualBox.
So now I am trying a Laptop running Ubunto 10.04 fldigi 3.21.40
from source and using fltk 1.3.
So to test it I am using jPSKMAIL 1.5.7
I am running fldigi minimized but that does not seem to be the
problem.
This works for 2 or 3 hours and fldigi freezes.
Nothing in the Logs anywhere it just stops.
(1) Do you have the same problem with fldigi alone and nothing else
significant on your computer ?
(2) Are you able to run the debugger "gdb" and see where fldigi is
hanging ? (If necessary I will give the exact sequence of commands)
(3) Same problem when fldigi is not minimized ?
(4) Can you see the logged information (And send them)? This might
tell what fldigi is doing when it hangs.
(5) Is the problem entirely predictible ? (Always happen in exactly
the same circumstances ).
(6) Can you see what were the interaction between pskmail and fldigi
when it happened (There might be a race condition in the xml-rpc
server, this is whay it does not happen with fldigi alone).
(7) Can you run fldigi in debug mode and try to reproduce the problem
(And see the logging information) ?
Thanks

Maybe this is related to running jPSKMAIL and would not happen
with the server.
When I ran server some years ago I do not recall any problems and
it ran on a much slower machine at the time for weeks on end.
I have seen references by Rein and others to freezing and wonder
if their is something I need to change that I do not remember.
Maybe I should just get the server up and running and see if that
freezes.
Any suggestions are appreciated.
Eric
