  • i think the problem is my system language. It doesnt work with Turkish.

    it is very interesting because other features works with Turkish like update.

    As i switch to English the problem solved. but i dont want to use my system in English.

    Thank you waiting for your advice

  • Hello Sezgin satir,

    do you get this error whatever path you specify or is it only for certain paths? When does savscan issue the error? Immediately, after initialization, or after it has already started scanning? Could you perhaps provide the complete output (from start up to the error - guess it terminates after the error)?

  • This error is only about the system language not about the paths or something. When i system language is English. there is no problem. When system language is Turkish it get this error. Ubuntu 18.04.03

  • now this is what i get when my OS System language in Turkish in Terminal  as soon as i press the Enter on my keyboard

    ~$ savscan /home/lethe/belgeler
    munmap_chunk(): invalid pointer

  • When i add this "env LC_ALL=C " line at the beginning of the code scan is working when my OS system language Turkish :D it is funny here is the full code:

    env LC_ALL=C savscan /home/lethe/belgeler

     

    that means there is something wrong with the savscan app right?

  • Hello Sezgin satir,

    [Edit]
    When system language is Turkish it get this error

    I did understand that part. What's not clear is what you see in the terminal. For example you enter savscan /home and you get immediately munmap_chunk(): invalid pointer and then the prompt? In other words, you can't start savscan when the language is set to Turkish?
    [/Edit]

    You added two posts while I was replying, thanks, it's clear now. Perhaps has an answer.

  • Hi,

     

    I'm afraid we don't support/test Turkish so it might be broken. I'm afraid I can't look at it in detail at the moment. It's certainly supposed to just fall back to English if it isn't English/Japanese locales.

    I guess it might be useful to know your precise LANG setting.

     

    PS:

    The free SAV is version 9, which supports both x86_32 and x86_64 systems.

    Centrally-managed SAV has both version 10 and version 9, and will select the appropriate version at install time.
