The program will exit with segmentation faults when loading some pages. But sometimes, these pages may be loaded normally and the program exits normally.

I found that qt events are still running after the main frame has been loaded, when the Python is ready for exiting, processEvents is sending requests to somewhere. This causes the segment fault on exit. Not familiar with QT, any suggests?

update: I may not be quite right about processEvents, but there is something still running in the Qt application. I use os._exit(0) to force the program to quit to fix this problem for now.

I see the same stuff quite frequently. Unfortunately it seems to be in WebKit itself, not in any of the Python libs. Also I can't find any constant pattern - some sites crash on the first run, then they pass OK on the second run.

@kravietz Could you paste few links that chrash? Are you also running osX?

@kravietz You are right, after running my program for almost one month, the crashes were most likely random.

Nope, it's crashing on Linux. Sample:

Actually, this particular page seems to be a good target for testing - out of 3 attempts one time it loaded OK, and twice it crashed with segmentationi fault...

@kravietz @hitigon Looks like you're running "outdated" ghosts, you should upgrade as 3044c63 from 0.1b5 fixes lot of issues related to cache.

I am also troubled with the core. For some pages, it always causes core dumping during page loading.

OK, I think I found the core-dumping case:
When the page uses following HTML elements, it cause segment faults

  1. localStorage or sessionStorage
  2. websocket

the direct way to avoid them is to disable them

But how do this? A can't find anything about disabling features in documentation.

Now I am using PY-QT 5, it’s more efficient and really gets seldom core dump.
so better update to new version.

@petermat Actually it does, with this small patch #205 and you will also need Python3 as there's no PyQt5 for Python2 (at least not in Ubuntu). But it works suprisingly well:

Python 3.4.0 (default, Jun 19 2015, 14:20:21) 
[GCC 4.8.2] on linux
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> from ghost import Ghost
>>> g=Ghost()
>>> g.open('https://ipsec.pl/')
(<ghost.ghost.HttpResource object at 0x7fdb723f2400>, ...

Unfortunately, this fatal test site http://www.aleqt.com/2014/11/28/article_910177.html still causes a crash inside Qt5 libraries :(

It keeps crashing randomly even on v0.2 ...
Notably, the log

[WARNING ] QT: QFont::setPixelSize: Pixel size <= 0 (0)

seems to always precede the crash

settting session.page = None fixes it for me

from ghost import Ghost

gho = Ghost()

with gho.start() as session:
     page, extra_resources = session.open("https://ipsec.pl/")
     assert page.http_status == 200
     session.page = None

   webkit.evaluate('window.localStorage=undefined')
   webkit.evaluate('window.sessionStorage=undefined')
   webkit.evaluate('window.RTCPeerConnection=undefined')
   webkit.evaluate('window.webkitRTCPeerConnection=undefined')
   webkit.evaluate('window.mozRTCPeerConnection=undefined')

@Brainback if page is set to None, it will lead to a memory leak in the program. the memory will exhaust.

I got the same problem.
I pulled the docker image named ghost-py. The image have already installed python2.7 and pyside. I added ghost0.2.3. The docker runs on 64 bit ubuntu14.04. The same code ran on win7 with pyqt4 installed works well,but when ran in docker,it exited silently sometimes and I didn't catch any exception. Finally I found that the exception was "segmentation fault" or "qt - WARNING - ghost: Fatal IO error: client killed".
If you solved the problem,please let me know.

The real reason for having this bug is that you're using nonpatched qtwebkit. Try out the one from 2.3.2-0ubuntu9 (Ubuntu 16.04 or newer) and it should go away.

@d33tah please consider giving a try at this branch (PySide2, Qt5): https://github.com/jeanphix/ghost.py/tree/pyside2

@jeanphix TBH this bug is not affecting me, it's just number one in Google search for this segfault. I wanted to let others know because I had the same problem in another application using qtwebkit.

@rcoh When does it happen?

@rcoh

Contributor

rcoh commented May 4, 2017

It's happening on the session.open call. Here's my flow:

  1. Create ghost()
  2. Create new session. Open session using with, wait for a couple of things.
  3. Repeat 2
  4. Segfault on session.open

Possibly the problem is that I'm opening multiple sessions? Having multiple sessions running at the same time is critical for my use case, however.

@rcoh Can't reproduce it, can you write a tiny failing script?

rcoh commented May 4, 2017

Hmm it appears to be related to the specific page I was loading...will have to debug more to figure out what about the page is causing the segfault. Is there anyway to get more of a stack trace?

I think I found the problem.

INFO:ghost.session:Page loaded https://[redacted]
INFO:ghost.session:Closing session

INFO:loadtool:Start action: <_MainThread(MainThread, started 139801505380096)>

Segmentation fault

It seems like a resource is getting loaded even after the session is closed. When a attempted to open a new session, we get a segfault.

This is fixed if I use a session.sleep() but it's pretty annoying

INFO:ghost.session:Page loaded https://....
(sleep for 20 seconds)

Although since as a function of this, I can't run concurrent sessions anyway without a segfault, this doesn't really work for me.

Completely missed this ping, sorry for this. I merged my network request tracker in ghost-py-0-2 branch this week as I was finally re-assigned to working on this. I am still tracking down some segfaults but it proves difficult.
