Lock Up

Postby TBlack » Thu May 07, 2015 11:55 pm

Beta 13

Downloading files and then NB starting downloading new headers. Cache shows 0/200 (0) and NB is Locked Up. Nothing is being downloaded! Nothing in the Import Folder.

Seems like the cache is not flushing or something is not allowing new entries to replace old unused areas.

There are no entries in the Event Viewer.

Clicking on Help/About unfroze NB and Header download continued and file download continued.

Now showing Cache at 71/200 (0)...seems like something is consuming cache and/or not releasing.

Hope this helps!

Seems like it's all the same problem. When cache = 0 download stops.

I've been experimenting with various things. Change some code around the cache disposal area. Not really seeing any problems. Hopefully something I touch will help you. Assuming it's not a problem with your PC (though what kind of problem it might be, I don't know).

Do you have another PC to try it on? Maybe a VM with no security software on it?

Seems earlier Betas were OK and 6.56 Release was OK. Maybe it was some of the changes made in the code in 6.60.

Could it be certain groups causing the issue? You mentioned a.b.boneless was causing problems, which I am using.

My other machine is a Laptop running Win 7 and Norton Antivirus as well.

Thanks

Norton is the devil...

I'm going to try something today and try to get you a copy to try before the end of the day.

Quade,

Here is a screen cap of my Norton Event Log at the time of the NB lockup.

See if this makes any sense to you.

Thanks
