Topic: Lean/vs codium crashing


Rémi Bottinelli (Oct 29 2022 at 16:26):

Hey, so for no apparent reason, either running leanproject build or launching codium on an (seemingly any) mathlib branch makes both crash, with no error message, and actually even the terminal from which I lanched the program closing too. This is with cache files present.
The memory consumption seems quite high, so this is maybe linux oom-ing the process… Any idea how to debug this?

What happens with lean --make src?

Kevin Buzzard (Oct 29 2022 at 16:29):

Are you sure your computer is not having serious problems like disc or memory failures?

Kevin Buzzard (Oct 29 2022 at 16:29):

Did you try rebooting?

Rémi Bottinelli (Oct 29 2022 at 16:30):

I tried rebooting. My computer is quite old indeed, but any other program seems fine. Let me test lean --make src.
(No crash as of ~7mn running time)

Rémi Bottinelli (Oct 29 2022 at 16:52):

While waiting: what would a crash/no crash for --make src mean?

Kevin Buzzard (Oct 29 2022 at 17:01):

There are tons of reasons that a program would crash

Kevin Buzzard (Oct 29 2022 at 17:02):

If you have no disc space, if you have no memory, if you have a faulty component or a corrupted operating system or if another program is out of control

Kevin Buzzard (Oct 29 2022 at 17:03):

A crash which takes down a terminal window sounds pretty drastic

Kevin Buzzard (Oct 29 2022 at 17:03):

Maybe you have a corrupted leanproject somehow, this was why I thought you could try avoiding it

Rémi Bottinelli (Oct 29 2022 at 17:04):

ah, interesting, I could try updating leanproject then

Kevin Buzzard (Oct 29 2022 at 17:04):

But if lean --make src has the same effect then this isn't the problem

Kevin Buzzard (Oct 29 2022 at 17:05):

What OS are you using?

Rémi Bottinelli (Oct 29 2022 at 17:05):

fedora

Rémi Bottinelli (Oct 29 2022 at 17:06):

well, --make src seems to run fine

Kevin Buzzard (Oct 29 2022 at 17:06):

That's good news

Kevin Buzzard (Oct 29 2022 at 17:06):

Then try uninstalling and reinstalling leanproject?

Rémi Bottinelli (Oct 29 2022 at 17:06):

yeah, let me try
