Advanced Member Tser Posted June 15, 2013 Advanced Member Report Share Posted June 15, 2013 Installed the new Linux version (4.0.04A) and after running the program for around 3 or 4 hrs in the background, it has now opened 500 ports (files) which it has not closed. Finding the number of opened ports (files) with the terminal command: $ lsof -p 21359 |wc -l With 21359 being the 3DCoat process ID. At this rate 3DCoat will reach its limit of opened ports (files) in a few more hours and then 3DCoat won't be able to save or open anything and will probably crash. THIS HAS TO BE FIXED T.

Contributor Tony Nemo Posted June 15, 2013 Contributor Report Share Posted June 15, 2013 Just to understand, why does 3DC need more than one port (in the absence of incremental saves) ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Advanced Member Tser Posted June 15, 2013 Advanced Member Report Share Posted June 15, 2013 Just to understand, why does 3DC need more than one port (in the absence of incremental saves) ? When a program in Linux needs to access a file on the hard drive like a configuration file to read or write some data to it, the program opens a port (the file) then does the reading or/and writing to the file, then, when the program is finished with the file, it closes the port (the file). Ports (files) are opened and closed all the time by normally running programs, but if the program opens a port, gets an error because the file is inaccessible, but doesn't close the port, then tries to open it again, then you have a problem because the program may continue trying to open the file and not closing it. I think this is what is happening with 3DCoat. In Linux, everything is a file, even drivers. T. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carlosan Posted June 15, 2013 Report Share Posted June 15, 2013 sorry im asking this chmod -R 777 /3DCfolder doesnt help ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Contributor Tony Nemo Posted June 15, 2013 Contributor Report Share Posted June 15, 2013 So (in Linux or every OS) you should get an error message in the app if the file can't be opened? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Advanced Member Tser Posted June 16, 2013 Advanced Member Report Share Posted June 16, 2013 So (in Linux or every OS) you should get an error message in the app if the file can't be opened? Just have a look at the Mantis bug report and you may be enlightened. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Advanced Member Tser Posted June 16, 2013 Advanced Member Report Share Posted June 16, 2013 sorry im asking this chmod -R 777 /3DCfolder doesnt help ? I have made my 3DCoat installation directory and 3D-CoatV4 directory recursively rwx (777), this makes no difference at all, apparently 3DCoat is trying to access other files on my system which it is not allowed (doesn't have permission).

Member Creator Posted June 16, 2013 Member Report Share Posted June 16, 2013 Hmmm i'm wondering if there is any possibility to close this ports manually. Probably there is bug in source, where file is not closed correctly, or 3D Coat have no permission to close ports once opened by it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carlosan Posted June 16, 2013 Report Share Posted June 16, 2013 Andrew (administrator)2013-06-16 09:01 Probably this is related to licensing scheme. Definitely it will be fixed very soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Advanced Member Vipera Posted June 19, 2013 Advanced Member Report Share Posted June 19, 2013 There is version 4.0.04B available from program/update but forum first page does not say anything about it. 3D-Coat 4.0.04B 2013-06-14 06:54:21 - fixed problem with floating license that appeared in 4.0.04A - transparency rendering improved in render room (for realtime rendering and after pressing Render) - seamlessness of ppp painting improved on seams on sharp edges (close to 90 degrees and more).

Advanced Member Tser Posted June 25, 2013 Advanced Member Report Share Posted June 25, 2013 Just a heads up, it appears that the problem with the constantly opening ports until the limit was reached has something to do with Fedora 18, as this doesn't occur with Fedora 14.

Member OpenSourcist Posted July 3, 2013 Member Report Share Posted July 3, 2013 (edited) Whenever I activate my license, it seems to deactivate almost every time I close 3d-coat then reopen it. I am running on 64-bit linux v. 4.0.04A I wasn't sure if I should post this here or in one of the bug forums, but it is very inconvinient because 3d-coat also crashes when I register my license. EDIT: I just realized this may be due to the fact that I am running a arch-based linux distro, so whenever I install something the system may reconfigure some things that are related to the method used by 3d-coat to check if the system is a new system that doesn't have 3d-coat activated. Sorry if this is unclear. Edited July 3, 2013 by OpenSourcist Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
