Hi all,
I'm having problems running the latest versions of Tor on my Windows
machine. I'm not sure if this should go on the tor-talk or the tor-dev
list. Tor used to work fine on my system until about a few months ago,
when it started to crash on Tor startup.
Theres no information in the debug logs:
Jul 27 11:22:10.062 [notice] Tor 0.2.0.2-alpha (r10455) opening new
log file.

Jul 27 11:22:10.406 [debug] check_signature_token(): Signed router

[... lots more]
and then it crashes with very little debug information. I've tried both
0.1.2.15 and 0.2.0.2-alpha. Running gdb returns this:

According to the Tor FAQ [1] this could be a problem with OpenSSL etc.
So I tried to compile Tor with Cygwin, but I'm having trouble compiling
libevent-1.2 along with most other cygwin users [2] so I've had no luck
compiling the latest version.
I'm running Windows XP SP2 with all the latest updates on an Intel Core2
6300 with plenty of RAM.
Any other ideas?
Thanks,
Jevon
