Bridge crashes when building cache

I am trying to index a folder with many images in it. I start Bridge CS4, point it at the folder, and build the cache (with subfolders, with 100% previews), and after a few hours I return to my computer to find that Bridge has crashed. Console messages are below.
Questions:
1) Is there any way to pinpoint which file Bridge was working on when it crashed?
2) Is there any way to build a cache for my disk other than selecting every folder and building a cache separately for that folder? (hours of mindless work)
3) Anyone else seeing this.
A note for Adobe, just in case someone is reading this: other programs, like FoxTrot, note which file caused the crash, and skip that file on the next build, which allows you to complete building the cache after multiple invocations of the process--which is much better than Bridge's behavior!
Console log says the following: What I think it means is that Bridge has a programming error and is using a freed object--which is always a good way to get a segmentation fault!

Not many here are capable of reading crash reports, neither can I.
It still isn't a good idea to use Bridge for caching large amount of files
in a variety of subfolders to use it for Digital Asset Management. Bridge is
a very fine application for ingestion files, sorting, rating renaming,
adding metadata and developing using ACR.
But with the current use of cache management I'm afraid it is not reliable
for use as DAM. For this you should look at typical DAM apps like Canto
Cumulus, Media Expression or Extensis Portfolio.
I have tried several times to cache large amounts but after many
disappointments I stopped using it for this purpose, still I advocate the
use of Bridge for the before mentioned purposes!
The easiest way to use the build cache for subfolders is to select the main
folder containing all the subfolders in Bridge and then use the menu:
tools-cache-build cache.
Then again, it would not be my choice to use the generate 100% previews.
This will take a lot of disk space (just look for the cache folder for
Bridge (user lib-caches-Adobe-BridgeCS4-cache) point to this last cache
folder and use info to calculate the total size of this folder, with this
settings it can grow to very huge proportions.
When Bridge is caching and having a crash it might have also an other reason
then a wrong file (remember that with your settings it needs a lot of disk
space and takes a great deal of your processor activity.
But the most easy (but not fast) way to look for a corrupted file is to
divide the problem folder in half and every time you have a problem again
divide this one in half until you reach the problem file.
Questions:
1) Is there any way to pinpoint which file Bridge was working on when it
crashed?
2) Is there any way to build a cache for my disk other than selecting every
folder and building a cache separately for that folder? (hours of mindless
work)
3) Anyone else seeing this.

Adobe bridge crashes when saving illustrator files

Hi there,
We are developing custom connector using Adobe Drive SDK for our DAM system, the integration with CS was working fine, we recently updated Adobe Drive to 4.2, and we are encountering bridge crashes when saving illustrator file. It didn't happen with older version(4.0.2) of Adobe Drive, not sure why. I pin point the part that causing the issue: in our custom connector, we have READ_XMP_METADATA capability which we need to display the thumbnails and previews, and in the ftp sample connector, this capablity is not included originally, so the issue does not happen, but if I add this capabilty, the crash issue happens as well. If we exclude this capablity from our connector, this crash issue doesn't happen.
We noticed this only happens when saving illustrator file, not photoshop or indesign, and it seems that only in illustrator, when save, and the bridge has the current file folder showing, we are seeing there are twice folder refreshes, and usually it will crash after the second time. In photoshop and indesign, we don't see folder refreshes. If switch to other folder, the crash won't happen. We tested on both windows and Mac, on Mac, this seems happen less often. Another thing we noticed is in debug mode, or we have many debug logging turned on, the crash happens less often, if it is deployed with no debug logging, the crash happens almost everytime. So we are guessing it might be some synchronization problem.
Could you please advice what's the cause of this issue?
Thanks,
Katherine

Has it ever worked?
What kind of files are they and where do you save them?
Is a printer connected, set up and turned ON?
Have you already tried resetting the preferences?
Generally it's not a good idea to just save old files, because then some artwork may be automatically flattened. Illustrator will save the file to the old version file-format and if you used new features in-between, those cannot stay live in the old version file format.

Adobe Bridge crashes when i open a Lacie external hard rive. Started when i uploaded Yosemite?

Finder crashes occur both on my MacBook Pro (4,1) and MacBook Air (2,1). There is very little in common between the hardware of the two systems except the Santa Rosa processor. One has HDD and the other SSD. One has 6GB in DDR2 memory in two dimms and one 2GB DDR3 soldered. One has an 8600M and one a 9400. One starts a bunch of apps at login and one starts nothing. And so on. Since it happens on different kinds of systems, it's definitely not a hardware problem with certain specific hardware. And I'm pretty sure I saw a report from someone with a MacPro.
I've looked at a lot of finder crash logs. A number of them seem to happen when something (memory or an object) is being freed and an error occurs. This causes an abort and the finder is killed and restarts. Not exactly a "crash". More like controlled flight into the ground. The other cases are probably not catching the error and getting seg faults, so those actually are crashes. Unfortunately, the place this happens seems to be different every time but usually related to finder or AppKit.
I suspect a memory corruption bug somewhere. I've pushed my system by opening and closing
folders, scrolling up and down, and opening and closing subfolders, and once the problem happens, it is usually reproducible for a few minutes (or a few repeats of the action that caused the crash).
Then it will often "magically" start working or a slight variation of behavior, e.g., opening a folder directly vs. using a finder window sidebar alias (or vice-versa) will work.

Crashes when building previews

LR keeps crashing when I try to rebuild previews. I had an issue before where I didn't see any thumbnails in the "all photographs" view, and to fix that I created a new catalog. I was able to rebuild previews for several external discs, but one disc kept crashing LR. So I installed that disc internally in my Mac Pro. Still kept crashing on build previews. Then I transferred all the files to a brand new hard drive, still inside my Mac. Whenver I rebuild the previews, the scan completes, and then I get the spinning beach ball, and then crash.
I do have a bunch of crash reports if that helps.
I'm running LR 2.7 on a Mac Pro with OSX 10.6.3. 5GB memory. I've repaired disk permissions on startup disk, and ran DiskWarrior on startup disk as well as the discs that house my photos. I've also run Techtool. In the past I've had issues with LR crashing when building Web galleries.
I would really appreciate suggestions--I've been wresting with this for days and it's very frustrating. Thanks!

More trouble: there's a catalog I can't import. I keep getting an "unkown error." And when I start the import, I'm getting strange previews with backwards text (I'm pretty sure it's instructing me to take hallucinogenic drugs) see below.

Adobe bridges crashes when opening a video file

Bridge crashes when hitting spacebar to go into preview mode.

Hello there,
So, whenever i've been in Bridge for a little while and want to do a full preview mode by hitting the spacebar I get the dark grey screen and after awhile "the spinning beach ball of death" appears. This continues until I have to force quit Bridge. When I restart bridge and try to do a new preview right away the same problem occurs imeditly.
I've tried to delete all the preffs both manually and automatically by holding down the option key during start up, but nothing helps. I've also installed the latest updates.
I'm on a pretty new Macbook Pro 2.53 GHz Intel i5 bought this summer with a SSD harddrive and 4gb of RAM if that is of interest.
Am I way off if I think it could have to do with the graphics card?
Well I'm thankful if anybody has solution for this.
Best,
Per

Deleting prefs manually seems to be OK although I personal would not bother
about the last workspace
> I don't really understand this part you wrote.
"What setting do you generally have for Bridge preview, always high Quality
or on demand or embedded previews
In Bridge Path Bar top right there are two small checker board icons. The
left one is just a shortcut for prefer embedded previews that only let you
cache the thumbs. A quick way to view the content of a non cached folder and
have the option to glance through thumbnails without having the need to wait
for all the previews to be build.
The right one gives you 3 options, first prefer embedded (same as left icon
and in fact is double but there are still more strange things in Bridge
regarding to workflow I'm afraid...)
Second is High Quality on Demand meaning the HQ preview builds when you
select the file. Somewhat useful but time costly when having to click on
several files and every time have to wait for the building of the preview.
Third is Always HQ. This one I prefer to have set as default. It means that
you have to wait longer for all the previews to being build but this is only
once and after this you can browse freely through all the files.
Having set to also build monitor sized previews in the prefs means you also
have to wait a little longer once when the folder builds cache but this is
in the same go after file ingestion and after this you can use the space bar
almost without delay to see a full screen preview. (And I'm on a 30"" Apple
Cinema display using mostly files from a EOS 1Ds3, big files, big screen
When it comes to size it can be any size, either a large psd. file or a tiny
.jpg. And i have my max set to 1000mb.
With this setting files above 1000 MB don't build previews but that should
not cause trouble when hitting spacebar, it only shows the small thumb on a
full screen with gray background and surely should not let Bridge crash.
Try also system maintenance with check and repair permissions.
And if the problem still persist create a new user for testing, log in under
this new account and try if the problem is still there, just to rule out
your current user account as the culprit.

Bridge crashes when adding keywords?

I was hoping to organize my photos through Bridge but it keeps crashing when I add keywords. Sometimes it works and other times it crashes even if I ony select one photo at a time? Very disappointing. This is the first crash on PS CS6 after 30 plus hours of use. I have 8GB of RAM. The RAM meter on Windows 7 is only at 20%. I also tried turning off AVB anti-virus but no go. I increased the cache too but no go.

Thank you for helping...Updated my video card driver but no change..... it still crashes. Sometimes it works sometimes it crashes on a single photo file.

Bridge crashes when I use the export panel (when I try to specify a folder)

Hi all!
Every time I use the export option, no matter where I access it from, when I try to specify a folder to move the file to, bridge crashes.
I can't just use "move" or "copy" to because I want to change the file format as well as move it.
Has anyone encountered this?
I already have the bridge 4.05.11 update installed.
Any solutions would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks, Karen

Every time I use the export option, no matter where I access it from, when I try to specify a folder to move the file to, bridge crashes.
In the export panel at the top right is a small menu icon, if you click on it and from the two options choose manage modules.
Next to ' select modules to enable' is a small icon of a toothed wheel. Click on it and first choose check for update (probably showing non available but give it a try) and then choose reinstall all modules. Restart Bridge and check if it is working. If still not restart Bridge holding down option key and choose reset preferences and see if that worked for you.
And there are other ways to save as new file format in new location. Assuming you have Photoshop also active go to the Bridge menu Tools / Photoshop and choose 'image processor, explore the options and set them to your wshes. You can also create an action in Photoshop for this goal and instead of image processor choose Batch and find the action you created

CS5 Bridge crashes when trying to create a new subdirectory

Bridge version 4.*.*, Windows 8.
Was working perfectly for months then tonight decided to crash when I try to create a new subdirectory.
When I try to create the subdirectory it closes and I get a window telling me Windows is trying to find a solution.
What is the issue have how do I get a remedy.
I thought OK, the application got corrupted, so I will download and install a new version of bridge.
That seems to not be possible as there is no Bridge for CS5 download on the download menu.
What is the solution? Thanks.

Encore CS3 crashes when building to Flash (Windows)

I've built a project that has no problem burning a DVD or rendering an ISO image. However, when I try to author a Flash version of the project, it spends hours transcoding, then Encore CS3 crashes. (Generic Windows "Encore CS3 has encountered a problem and needs to close" error.) The only issue that shows up when checking the project is an orphan timeline, but it is linked into the project through playlists.
Any suggestions on how to create a flash version successfully?
Specs:
AMD Dual Core 4800+ (2.51Ghz)
2 Gigs memory
Windows XP SP3

I'm also having issues with Encore crashing all of the time. Whenever I try to build a flash file it crashes near the end. I have a few large videos in there and can build a flash file without the videos in, but why does it keep crashing when the videos are in.... I thought this is what this software is designed for!
Has anyone had any luck getting around their crashes?
To reduce the size of the videos what setting do you suggest changing?
Thanks and good luck to everyone else using Encore!
Matt.

Workshop 8.1 SP2 crashes when build webapp

Hi,
Help!
It keeps crashing when I try to build a webapp!
Anyone knows is there an error log that tells what happened?
Thanks!
Hai

Raj,
I have since rolled back to SP1.
I will try SP2 now, and see if the problem still exists.
One possible reason it might be because of ClearCase view
I used(local dynamic view).
Somehow generating a lot of files in .workshop directory
as view private files make the view corrupted.
Thanks!

-- mod edit: read this is the right subforum, but it was the most relevant available.
which is plenty for me even though i use alot. There's an issue however, and that is that many heavy applications such as games like Garrys Mod or Elder Scrolls Online under Wine crashes when the RAM cache exceeds those 6gb. It's supposed to go over to SWAP, but heavy applications simply just crash instead which is very annoying. I do not know why it just crashes, since i always have at least 1500mb of free swap available, and since it's just for cache and not reserved memory that should be fine. Sometimes an excessive amount of cache is used, and i'm not sure what is using up all of it which makes me have to reboot my computer to be able to play games without crashing which is very annoying.
a ps aux of one of those times where excessive cache is used for unknown reason

Not a fix, but got my system to be more stable atleast.
Wrote a bash script that simply clears cache every minute. Very dirty, but it's better to have a stable and slow system than a system that crashes from time to time.
while true; do
echo 3 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches
sleep 60
done
simply execute as root and you're good to go.
Will continue to try to find the root of the problem though.

CS4 Bridge Crashes When Sony HDR-SR11 MPG Selected

Greetings all,
I'm brand new to CS4 moving from CS2 and have not used Bridge before. I use a Sony HDR-SR11 cam. If I try to access the cam hard drive through bridge or open a folder with MPG files from this cam, Bridge CRASHES. I get the "Adobe Bridge has encountered a problem and needs to close"--Send Error Report/Don't Send pop up window.
If I try to open an MPG file from this cam that has been processed by another program--burned to DV then ripped back to MPG using other software, the file works just fine.
I have tried opening the cam's MPG files...
Directly from the cam drive -- crash
From files copied from cam to computer hard drive with Windows Navigator--crash
From files on computer hard drive placed there by Sony cam software.
The MPG files work fine in Premiere.
I have installed all the Adobe Updates for CS4.
PLEASE HELP!
THANKS!
james =)

Bridge Crashes when uploading to FTP CS5

I am trying to create a web album in Bridge with CS5. Every time I select upload, Bridge crashes and closes and I get the error msg: Bridge CS5 has stopped working. A problem has caused Bridge to stop working correctly...

One can always try to reset preferences
by holding down Ctrl key and starting Bridge. Should get reset window with
3 options.
