/nwn: line 14: 3917 Naruszenie ochrony pamięci (core dumped) ./nwmain $@

[Legacy_Elsworth]

               I installed NWN on Fedora 14 x86 platform. To run NWN I installed all necessary i686 packages. After that I tried to run the game. Game start to launch, Neverwinter Nigts splash screen appears (on black background), and then I get the error "/nwn: line 14:  3917 Naruszenie ochrony pamiÄ™ci   (core dumped) ./nwmain $@". Is anyone who can help me to solve the problem?

               Did you change the line

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=./lib:./miles:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH

to

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=./miles:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH

(ie removing the ./lib statement) prior to start nwn?

               Skildron, thanx for reply. Yes I did it.

               Elsworth, could you please translate the polish(?) error message - or is core dumped the translation?

Naruszenie ochrony pamięci = segfault or literally Memory protection violation

               You could try the following: Add the line

export MALLOC_CHECK_=0

in your nwn start script right before the ./nwmain line. Newer glibc versions do additional memory checks that sometimes cause nwmain to crash - this environment variable deactivates the additional memory checks for nwn.

I'm not sure, though, if that's the solution in your case. In the old forums, there is a posting by Eyrdan with lots of information how to check that your nwn Linux installation is correct. I recommend to check that one out if the MALLOC setting does not help.

               Skildron,

thanx for replay. I checked everything posted by Eyrdan in the old forum, but without success.

P.S.
I tried to run nwn with MALLOC_CHECK environment  set to 0, but the problem still exists. I will try to trace nwmain and post it to this forum, maybe there is something which I do not see.

It look like that all necessary 32bit libriaries are installed.
Then I run "strace -f ./nwn-launcher.sh 2>nwn.strace_2011.04.18.txt' command. The result is in file which you can find here: rapidshare.com/files/457975065/nwn_strace_2011.04.zip.
