Clrmamepro dumps - 0x7 fast_fail_fatal_app_exit
Spydey:
Hi Roman,
I have an issue and perhaps you know what is happening.
In the past I have used ClrMamePro extensively to manage my Mame Split Rom set. I don't use SoftwareLists and everything is in one big folder. Both ClrMamePro and the Roms are on an external USB Drive. Recently I upgraded my PC and reconnected this drive with the same Drive letter to my new PC.
Fast forward to now when a new version of Mame (.232) has been made available. I tried to rescan my set and the scan works without incident. But when I try to fix some roms ClrMamePro crashes without any further message. Especially a fix with the "unneeded" option creates the crash.
I did find a small Windows crash file with a c0000409 0x7 (FAST_FAIL_FATAL_APP_CRASH) error, which I have included.
Can you determine what happened? Or does this mean there's something wrong with my computer?
Regards!
Spydey
Roman:
A crash when fixing files was not reported yet.
Hard to say what is happening. The most likely scenario is a corrupt archive file so that a 3rd party lib (zip / 7z / rar) has a problem when modifying the corrupt archive.
So the best thing to do is to enable "Ask before fixing" option and don't use the "yes to all" / "no to all" prompts but single click through the messages. By doing that you might be able to find out which set is creating the problem.
Or try to limit the amout of data which you want to scan. For example try less rompaths with less files....so a bit trial and error to find out where exactly the problem is.
Also of interest is your setup: 32/64 bit version of cmpro, latest version?, windows version?. Special settings set in cmpro? (e.g. you can send me your used *.cmp file from cmpro's settings folder and cmpro.ini).
More unlikely is bad RAM (or wrong RAM timing) which can cause all kind of weird effects....but as I said...pretty unlikely.
Spydey:
I have included the current cmpro.ini. I am running a 64-bits version 4.041 of ClrMamePro (I also tried the 32-bits version, with identical results).
My Windows is currently a Windows 10 Pro 21H1 with OS build 19043.1023
The Profiler is generated as based on the latest Mame.exe (64-bits) version .232
I recently performed a Windows Memory Test on this system and this has resulted in no errors.
As for an example. I currently have an unneeded file in the rom "19xx.zip" (dl-1425.bin). If I reply "Yes" to the fixing of this rom ClrMamePro crashes. If I manually delete the file from the zip (with 7-zip) everything afterwards works fine.
If I manually move this file back again into the zip I can see it is different based on the Characteristics (existing files: UTF8, new file: NTFS) and it crashes again afterwards during the fixing. I have tried both 7zip as winrar to re-add the file and recreate this error.
Roman:
OS and versions all sound good.
Removing files definetly doesn't crash here (and noone else reported it and believe me...such a problem would have popped up very very early :)).
If you are able to reproduce the error (and it seems you are), please send me the zip file in question somehow.
Besides of looking at the archive, you may want to toggle making backups (Settings -> Make backups to folder). Maybe it tries to add the file it wants to delete to a corrupt archive in backup....
Spydey:
Hi Roman,
Disabling the backup didn't have any effect. I send you a PM with a zipfile where this issue occurs.
Regards!
