Developer crashes on a regular basis

Questions

Hi all,

My Servoy Developer install crashes regularly. It immediately closes down and I have to re-open it. This behaviour seems to occur sporadically when opening other applications on my system.

I have noticed each time this happens a hs_err_pid.log file is generated in my home directory. I have attached 3 of these for reference (it wouldn’t let my upload the .log files directly so I have uploaded a zip folder containing the files). At suggestion of my colleague I changed the JRE environment on my machine from 17 to Zulu11, as this is what we run on production.

I am running Xubuntu 22.04 Jammy LTS.

Any assistance in diagnosing the logs/behaviour would be much appreciated.

Thanks,

Alex.

and you also have the same crashes when not using Zulu11 maar just the one we ship?

What version of servoy are you using?
Problem is these are hard native crashes (it seems a bit related to Eclipse and the SWT gui toolkit)
Servoy can’t do much about that

Hi Alex,

I have seen some issues with the chromium plugin on Linux.

Try disabling it by removing the 2 lines containing ‘com.equo.chromium’ from /path/to/servoy/developer/configuration/org.eclipse.equinox.simpleconfigurator/bundles.info
It will fall back to the default editor in SWT from eclipse.

Hope this helps,

Rob

Hi Rob,

Just to confirm, after making your suggested change I have had 3 crash-less days!

Thank you!
