DStarRepeater Remote Command's Crash Application

[viper14306]

I have setup a Raspberry Pi B+ with the DVMEGA GPIO board on it. I installed Raspbian Jessie on the Pi and compiled the repeater software from here and tried the one from Yahoo Group. All of them appear to have this issue (except the one from the Western D-Star Group, which doesn't indicate it is in DEBUG). When I have remote commands setup to do things like Shutdown or Restart, when I make a call to the command, it crashes the Repeater with the following error in the console that the repeater was ran from:

Fatel Error: Assertion failed on line 587 in file ../src/unix/utilsunx.cpp and function wxExecute: wxThread::IsMain() wxExecute() can be called only from the main thread.

I posted this in the Yahoo Group and someone said their build works fine. The Yahoo Group code says it is the same version as the Western D-Star Group's version (again, mine saying DEBUG and theirs does not). Anyone else have this issue or have any thoughts?

The assertion is only enabled when wxWidgets is compiled with DEBUG enabled. It doesn't mean that the error isn't happening, it just means that the assertion isn't firing.

This is a programming error as the code doesn't check to see if it's running on the main thread or not. wxShell/wxExecute can only be run from the main thread, so we'll have to run down how to use wxQueueEvent to trigger the main thread to do the processing.

I did a standard compile in my latest Odroid C2 image. no flag added for
debug, but debug through the the GUI title bar later? Which I thought
'weird', and GUI remotecontrol choking on the complete host files from
my server,.. why are the gateways included ? Instead of messing around
with opendv, the install script could detect the existing system user,
and setup paths under same with correct permissions.

In debian/ubuntu setting the existing user in settings.mk worked very
well, especially as the program was also used underneath that user.

I was doing systemd rpm packaging for 2.8 wx base since 4 years ago ;

Let me know the included systemd components in latest code please, and
what replaced remotecontrold ?

I see where the issue is here and have a path forward to fix it. I'll see if I can commit some code within the next couple of days to move forward on it. It's going to have a few other rearchitecting things that it'll be dependent on, so I'll have to complete those first. Stay tuned @viper14306.
