MySQL Bugs: #14925: Segmentation fault

Bug #14925	Segmentation fault
Submitted:	14 Nov 2005 14:59	Modified:	7 Dec 2005 3:56
Reporter:	Cesar Salinas	Email Updates:
Status:	Closed	Impact on me:	None
Category:	MySQL Administrator	Severity:	S3 (Non-critical)
Version:	1.1.4-1	OS:	Linux (Mandriva 2006/Suse 10)
Assigned to:		CPU Architecture:	Any

Description:
mysql-administrator terminates when it tries to connect.
Starting mysql-administrator from a commandline I get a "line 18 : 7683 
Segmentation fault       $PRG-bin".

I've MySql 4.1.12 installed. (distro's inside)
When I installed MySql-administrator I had to install the following packages to
resolve the dependencies errors:
-glibmm24-2.8.0-2.i586.rpm
-gtkmm24-2.8.0-2.i586.rpm
-libsigc++2-2.0.16-3.i586.rpm

How to repeat:

It's consistent

miguel@hegel:~> mysql-administrator
/usr/bin/mysql-administrator: line 18: 29265 Segmentation fault      $PRG-bin

/usr/bin/mysql-administrator: line 18:  3114 Segmentation fault      $PRG-bin

Same thing with Fedora Core 4 all updated according to the lovely yum.

/T

I am getting the same thing consistently in Mandriva 2006 0.5:
/usr/bin/mysql-administrator: line 18:  5028 Segmentation fault      (core dumped) $PRG-bin
when I try to connect using 
localhost, root (no password)

I wish Mandriva would bundle the administrator and query-browser, and that the mysql developers would test more with RH and MDK default PC distributions.

thanks

I have exactly the same problem on Fedora Core 4 
I installed de tar.gz an i need to acomplish a lot of dependencies due to the gtk , glib2 libraries and the directory destination that no meet the requirements than Gnome needs that is i.e. /usr/local/lib/pkgconfig directory it's diferent than /usr/lib/pkgconfig that is used by fedora.

The result was: when you compile the mysql-administrator source for mysql-administrator-bin 
then appear a lot of problem related with libraries:

/usr/local/lib/libgtk-x11-2.0.so: undefined reference to `g_file_set_contents'
/usr/local/lib/libpangocairo-1.0.so: undefined reference to `pango_font_get_font_map'
/usr/local/lib/libgtk-x11-2.0.so: undefined reference to `g_utf8_collate_key_for_filename'
/usr/local/lib/libgtk-x11-2.0.so: undefined reference to `g_get_host_name'
/usr/local/lib/libgtk-x11-2.0.so: undefined reference to `g_mapped_file_free'
/usr/local/lib/libgtk-x11-2.0.so: undefined reference to `g_mapped_file_new'
/usr/local/lib/libgtk-x11-2.0.so: undefined reference to `g_mapped_file_get_contents'

I run than binary from desktop shortcut as shell command line and the difference it's the second way say the well known message error: 
            /usr/bin/mysql-administrator: line 18:  1407 Segmentation Fault  $PRG-bin

the last problem it's when you try to erase the rpm's appear registered as:
mysql-administrator-1.1.4-1.%{targos}
mysql-query-browser-1.1.17-1.%{targos}

the rpm's name it's no accepted by the rpm -e command and says:
shell> rpm -e mysql-administrator-1.1.4-1.%{targos}
error: ^1\.%{targos}$: regcomp failed: Invalid Contents of \{\} 
error: package mysql-administrator-1.1.4-1.%{targos} is not installed

it's due to a mistake when the rpmbuild was performed and the var %{_target_os} becomes %{targos} after build the rpm
Values from source: %_target_platform%{_target_cpu}-%{_vendor}-%{_target_os}
With mysql-query-browser happens the same.

Some people results the problems with a non-misterous random solution??
Running with :
Linux Host 2.6.12-1.1447_FC4 i686 i386 GNU/Linux
mysqlclient10-3.23.58-6
mysql-devel-4.1.15-1.FC4.1
mysql-4.1.15-1.FC4.1
mysql-server-4.1.15-1.FC4.1
