Yes that message (I think from 2.0.4-alpha) is in the bugzilla report. Did that crash for you, or just a log message?
If I choose to continue running, I get the textension crash.

That does not crash and does not throw the assert. The first thing I did was rename an audio file to include a unicode character . I then tried importing a file without unicode characters (using drag and drop), then one with unicode characters. Did the same for File > Import > Audio.

It did not crash on import.
Nor for me with the above tests.
Gale Andrews wrote:I rebuilt 2.0.3 without logging and it still crashed.

So I have 2.0.3 more or less as unstable as 2.0.4 with only partial replicability of the log problem in 2.0.4.

You see 2.0.4 as much worse, and all files are affected.

Do you get any crashes in 2.0.3 if you drag in a file with Unicode characters? Or just fewer crashes?

It would be much more useful to fix the log so that it behaved as in 2.0.3, rather than stop logging.

I see 2.0.4 as almost completely unstable when importing audio files. All audio file types I've tested are affected: AIF, WAV, MP3, OGG, FLAC. As I noted, even if the file imports there is garbage in the log.

I have not stress tested 2.0.3 (e.g. tried 100 different imports), but I have not had a crash with 2.0.3 in over a week of occasional testing, using non-unicode and unicode file names.

Agreed it would be better to fix the log but in the meantime a 2.0.4a Mac maintenance release without file import logging might be in order.

OK and I presume the log shows that the import succeeded?

If I have time I will try to find at what time point in 2.0.4-alpha the log turned the imported file name into Chinese characters on Windows. Note that it still says the import succeeded, and there is no practical problem. On Linux, the log is also wrong - it says which libraries attempted the file import but nothing else (no "import succeeded" message).

Maybe you can find out from the Mac nightly builds site at what time point the log went wrong on Mac. This may or may not have the same cause as the Windows and Linux issue.

I guess it depends how many users find 2.0.4 far worse than 2.0.3 for this Mac issue. I can't tell the difference between them in usability and find it hard to reproduce the log problem.

The WDM-KS issue on Windows similarly may or may not require a "maintenance release" depending how many people fall over this.

I'm really sorry, but I can't remember exactly. It may be that the first time 2.0.4 opened but did not load any music and the second time it crashed; or I may be wrong about that.

For what it's worth, the May 19 build does not crash, and the May 20 build does (for me). For any import that succeeded the log looked correct. I haven't (so far) got anything past May 20 to import successfully, so I couldn't check the log.

There were several commits on May 19, including (ironically) r12334 "Patch from Michael Chinen to fix unicode import crash due to c_str and wxLogMessage - especially on Mac. Also remove the forcing of file names to lower case for display, which can never have been correct, especially for case sensitive file systems."

I'm coming to the conclusion that was a bad patch - it was the cause of the garbage file names in the log on Windows.

Can you try this one http://gaclrecords.org.uk/test-builds/a ... -2.0.4.zip . It's HEAD with r12334 reverted, so it will write the log, but I have retained one feature of that patch which is beneficial, namely removing the forced rewrite to lower case in the log. So if your file is "BB.aiff" it will show as "BB.aiff" in the log and not "bb.aiff" as it did before r12334.

Success! That works a treat. Imported MP3, AIF, OGG and FLAC via File > Import > Audio and drag-and-drop. One of the files had an extended unicode character.

Where do we go from here? Hold this for 2.0.5, push out a maintenance release, or point people who complain of this bug to your custom build?

What is your experience using this build?

Re: Audacity 2.0.4 still crashes

What is your experience using this build?
Thanks for testing, Bill.

So far, seven users including you can import files using that patched build where they can't in 2.0.4. Three of those users were running Mac in French or German, so could not avoid Unicode characters. Also there are several users where the other build that removes import logging has the same beneficial effect.

The patched build works fine for me so far, but then so does the official 2.0.4 (at the moment). Note this is not a fix, it would just reduce the occurrences of the bug (that apparently started in 1.3.11) back to something like their 2.0.3 frequency.

I'm intending to post to the -devel thread where Richard approved Michael's fix asking to reconsider that fix. Before I do that, I need to test my patch on Linux. If anyone else wants to test it, the patch is attached.

I think we're close to wanting a 2.0.4a for Mac. I've seen ten reports today and more than that the day before, so it's more common than the WDM-KS problem. If the number of new reports were to decline in the next few days, perhaps we could manage by linking to the patched build on the Forum.

Try getting rid of the "ƒ" character in the folder name (although that's no problem for me).

The "???"s in the crash report are troubling - it seems to have gone completely off the rails.

We'll continue working on this. Thanks for your help.
