example program SFML segfault on redhat 6.4

[Sarcarx]

Hello guys !

I have made a program using sfml, it works fine on Linux MInt, i tried to start it on a IBM computer on red hat 6.4, starting the program i had a segfault, here is what valgrind told me :

Code: [Select]


Process terminating with default action of signal 11 (SIGSEGV)
==29780==  Access not within mapped region at address 0xE0
sf::priv::GlxContext::GlxContext(sf::priv::GlxContext*) (in /workfs/dev/libs/SFML-2-2.1/build/lib/libsfml-window.so.2.1)

Actually this segfault appears ALSO on the examples i built from SFML, i did a startx and a ./opengl --display=:0.0

Thanks a lot.

I've no experience with Red Hat, but my guess would've been that you need to recompile it for Red Hat.

If you mean recompile SFML for red hat that is actually what i have done. The SFML for linux thing wasn't working

And you've recompiled your application newly as well?

Yes, i have a Makefile, i did make clean and then make, the application was fully recompiled.

Okay, well you made it sound like you just c&p the file from your Linux Mint to your Red Hat system and then wondered why it didn't work.

Is your graphics driver uptodate? What is your graphics driver?

Ho sorry, I have an actual forge on SVN where i just pull the code from and compile it when i want to deploy my app. The computer is an IBM from a university, every day lots of people use its graphic cards to compute graphics simulation so i guess everything is up to date on it. At least i know people can use OpenGL just fine on it.

Now that i think about it, it may come from the SFML installation, when i compiled it i got this warning do you think it is related ?

Code: [Select]

WARNING: Target "sfml-graphics" requests linking to directory "/workfs/dev/libs/glew-1.10.0/lib".  Targets may link only to libraries.  CMake is

It appears that error still occurs on example programs from SFML, i already tried these on other computers and we all know they work for sure so what is not going right ? Does someone have an idea where that error could come from ?

How are you building SFML? As a completely uneducated guess it looks like maybe the glew library was somehow specified as a path to its location rather than the library name?
