'convert' hangs up at 1%
Posted: 2009-03-15T05:45:24-07:00
Hi,
I appreciate ImageMagic.
But recently, my convert.exe of ImageMagick 6.3.8 02/21/08 Q16
frequently occurs hang-up on Windows XP SP3, cygwin, Perl 5.0, Windows command prompt environment. The PC is Z61p, Core 2 Duo.
By making and excuting 4 times a test program envoking convert infinitely from Perl system() command, I got the result of hang-up after 39, 124, 145, 29 times conversion respectively.
The core command is this:
Here, X: is the device letter for aux HDD .
If it is normal state, the command returns control to Perl application program in 1 to 2 seconds, and sometimes 3 to 10 seconds when CPU or I/O is busy. But at last the caller program stops and would not go even I wait for hours.
If I kill the 'convert' subprocess by Windows Task Manager, it returns error code 1 (for Perl 256 * 1) to the caller and the caller's re-try suceeds.
In past, after several hours after hang-up of convert occurred, Windows XP turned to be in a whole hang-up state, so even window manipulation operations could not work before Windows re-booting. I've seen such severe trouble because of convert, twice.
The hang-ups occur not only at X: but also at S:, so no hardware trouble is related, I guess.
Referring this old post:
viewtopic.php?f=2&t=6481
I added the debug option to the convert command like this:
The debug output as follows.
The list stopped at the ****** point of the loop.
(The part after ***** is what should be written if normal process went, and really missing.)
* You can't read some lines in the above stream part, but it might be OK.
Regards,
