Spyder always crashes upon restarting

[spyder-bot]

From lucalf...@gmail.com on 2011-02-22T04:10:35Z

What steps will reproduce the problem?

1.Open spider
2.set the path
3.load a file What is the expected output? What do you see instead? Spyder works fine, but only once. The next time it does not open anymore. After that the "Spyder crashed during last session." dialog appears. The spyder.py --reset workaround works: spyder starts again, but only once. The next time it will again not start. What version of the product are you using? On what operating system? pythonxy 2.6.5.6
spyder 2.0.6 (2.0.5 had the same behavior)
windows 7

Please provide any additional information below

. This problem did not occur at first, it suddenly appeared a few days ago.
I discovered that Spyder will restart only if I manually delete the
outline_explorer/expanded_state = ...
entry in spyder.ini before restarting.

Could you try running Spyder in debug mode?
(python spyder -d)

Also there is maybe a spyder_crash.txt file somewhere which was generated by the crash.

Running Spyder in debug mode produces:

Hi Pierre,

See the debug output at code.google.

But meanwhile I discovered something that may be important: the problem
seems to be related to 1 particular file: if I close this file before
closing Spyder, then Spyder will start next time...
So hopefully this file may help you to reproduce the problem. See
attachment.

rgds,
Luc

I keep forgetting to close this file that causes the crashes (yes its silly, I know), so I keep experiencing the crashes. I was only wondering: perhaps the bug is difficult for you to fix and the fix will not be available soon, but perhaps you know what it is in my file that triggers the crashes? I would be thankful for a tip about what I could change in my code that makes the crashes disappear...

I should also have mentioned that I'm now using 2.0.8 and it still crashes.

Could you please re-send the file which causing this bug?
(I can't open the link above: server error)

From lucalf...@gmail.com on 2011-03-10T01:35:08Z

here you are...

[spyder-bot]

From pierre.raybaut on 2011-03-10T01:47:32Z

Ok, this 'email' link above is clearly not working: still a server error -- I can't access to your file.

Could you please attach the file to your comment?

[spyder-bot]

From pierre.raybaut on 2011-03-10T23:38:09Z

Or if you like, you may send me an email directly.

From lucalf...@gmail.com on 2011-03-11T05:03:13Z

Is this still needed? If yes: to what address?

[spyder-bot]

From pierre.raybaut on 2011-03-11T05:58:54Z

My email address is available when you click on my profile link (see every single of my comments here).

Otherwise, the simplest solution is to fill a comment here (i.e. not by email: by logging here on the Google Code website of Spyder) and to attach the script to your comment -- see the link below "Attach a file".

And yes, this is still needed: I'm more than ready to solve this issue... I'm only missing this script.

From lucalf...@gmail.com on 2011-03-11T06:57:30Z

I was only wondering if you were enable to get it from the body of my
previous email...
I'll try again sending via google code, ok.
