SOLVED = Bad Ubuntu install.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

On Ubuntu 10.04 LTS using Codelite v2.7.0.4375, installed from codelite_2.7.0.4375-ubuntu0_i386.deb obtained from http://kent.dl.sourceforge.net/project/ ... 0_i386.deb

Codelite is stock - I haven't changed the default plugins. It is using most of a CPU core even when idle, i.e. when starting up with no workspace loaded yet.

The issue appears to be that Codelite is forking (actually cloneing) like crazy:

Apologies if this is a known issue, or there's an easy fix. I'm happy to provide more details if it would help.

Looks like codelite fails to launch the indexer.

Can you launch the indexer manually?

Try to start it manually like this:

Code: Select all

/usr/bin/codelite_indexer mysocket

does it work properly (i.e. it does not exit) ?

Thanks for the quick response.

Well, the good news is that the same version (v2.7.0.4375) installed directly from the Canonical repository on my home Ubuntu 10.10 machine behaves fine, and doesn't display the thrashing. It looks like it's a local issue on my work machine then. The bad news is that I won't be able to try running the indexer manually until Monday morning. I'll try it then and post the results, and I'll also have a closer look into the strace to see if I can spot any problems there.

OK, here we go:

Well, that's a bag of dicks. I can Google a few suggestions that Ubuntu 10.04 should have libc6-2.11, but Synaptic resolutely shows 2.10.1-0ubuntu18 as the most recent version for (my) install of 10.04. I may have a hosed install, or 10.04 may be an approximation, or libc2-11 is only in Ubuntu 10.04.1. I'll try upgrading to Ubuntu 10.04.1 later.

In the meantime though, I've just built CodeLite from source, svn 4509. That works fine - codelite_indexer runs (and keeps running) as expected, and codelite's CPU usage is low.

Thanks for the help - I'll followup that Ubuntu 10.04.1 install and see if my libc6 sorts itself out.

Yup, I have a bad Ubuntu install. Colleagues with Ubuntu 10.04 installs (both clean installs and upgraded from 8.04) do have libc-2.11.1-0ubuntu7.2. I appear to have a messed up 9.10 / 10.04 hybrid system, and my libc6 has never been updated properly.

Sorry for taking up your time, the problem is entirely at my end.
