3.1.1 Beta 2 - Unhandled Exception, Failed to Generate Minidump

[StanDm]

When I try to generate a brand new index on a folder with many subfolders and 200,000 images, I get the error popup after it gets 5-10% through:

Icaros Unhandled Exception
Icaros terminated unexpectedly.
Source file: Dh6H6y7XlBB1wT8.jpg
Failed to generate minidump file to C:\Users\admin\AppData\Local\Temp\IcarosDebug\IcarosThumbnailProvider.dll-1.1.0.302-11.26.dmp (Error: 2147942430)

I've removed several of the offending files to another folder that isn't indexed, and it still crashes on seemingly random files. Although if I leave the same files in place, they crash at the same file. Now I do see that the indexer scans the same file and folder order, so perhaps at a certain "count", it fails. Current fail count is 34.9%, 84591 of 237957 files, with 6 failed to index.

I looked at the file identified and it opens fine in IrfanView and the thumbnail looks fine in Windows Explorer with Icaros still enabled.

I have already enabled debugging per the registry file in the other thread here.

When I click Rebuild Cache after, I get the Status: Indexing Completed: Failed to access the database [0x10] [Took: 21s 506ms]. If I Clear Cache and Rebuild, same problem. If I Clear Cache, change the Cache Location, and do not move the existing cache to the new location, same problem. Refreshing Windows Explorer doesn't help.

If I Restart Windows Explorer, Clear Cache, change the cache location to a brand new folder WITH moving existing cache, then Build Cache, then I get Failed to access the database [0x10].

If I Restart Windows Explorer, Clear Cache, change the cache location to a brand new folder WITHOUT moving existing cache, then Build Cache, then rebuilding works.


Any ideas?

Hi StanDm,

Hmm... this is a tough one, especially since the minidump fails to generate. 
It sounds like one of the entries in the cache is added improperly and then corrupts the cache, making it impossible to add another entry.

When you try to rebuild the cache, have you tried closing IcarosConfig first? It may be holding on to one of the cache files from the previous indexing.

You could try and send me some of these files that Icaros claimed it failed on, however it sounds like the issue lies elsewhere.
That said, with the files, I can rule out any problems with them for sure. 

Unfortunately I don't have that many media files in my possession, so all I can do here is try and run an artificial test trying to emulate your setup,
and see if I can reproduce the issue that way.

Sorry the cache isn't working as intended. I am currently working on improving it.

I noticed something - I have a similarity to something that was reported in the 3.1.1 Beta 2 main thread: "It seems that icaros_1280.icdb gets over 4,000,000+ KB in size"

Right before I reformatted my computer yesterday, I noticed that one of my Icaros DB files was 4GB. I assume it hit some sort of hard-coded size limit. I am not going to reinstall Icaros until there is a beta fix to test out. Thanks Xanashi for your work on this enhancement to Windows Explorer's thumbnailing.
