QtDBus error only on some raspberries

AlTro

Hi all,
I hope to explain this error well.
I develop a mqtt application that simply converts messages from/to dbus and send/receive to the mqtt broker.
I'm using mosquitto as mqtt library that starts a thread to listen for incoming messages from the broker; so I simply emit a signal in the mosquitto callback called when a mqtt message arrive. This signal is relayed to dbus using a QtDbuAbstractAdaptor.

This application runs on Raspbian Jessie with Qt 5.7 crosscompiled.

The problem is that on the raspberry that I use for development the application runs well, but on others, with exactly same image of development one, it gave me this error:

QtDBus: cannot relay signals from parent QObject(0x1547228 "") unless they are emitted in the object's thread QThread(0x153dff8 ""). Current thread is QThread(0x74c02ba8 "").
*** Error in `./mqtt': munmap_chunk(): invalid pointer: 0x7efec618 ***
Aborted

I think the problem is caused by the receiver thread that emit a signal, but I'm not sure. But the real question is: why this problem comes only on some raspberries. Any ideas of what can I do?
Thanks in advanced

Hi,

Are you sure that these RaspberryPis are using the same software stack as yours ?

AlTro

I think yes, the images are exactly the same.
I checked only libraries linked to the application: mosquitto and qt are same version.

Then check also the DBus installation.

@SGaist you're right: I forgot to update dbus installation on the release image.
Now all works well!
Thank you so much.
