Getting: "PROGRAM ABORT : uninitialized http_request"

[GoogleCodeExporter]

After running skipfish (version 2.10b) in OS X 10.7.5 with command:

./skipfish -S dictionaries/medium.wl --config mylogin.conf -v -u  -X /logout -W 
new_dict.wl -o output_dir6 -r 1000 -B .google-analytics.com -B .googleapis.com 
http://localhost:8888/brainspotting/

the scan stops in a few seconds with following error:

[-] PROGRAM ABORT : uninitialized http_request
    Stop location : async_request(), src/http_client.c:1836

What does "uninitialized http_request" mean and can I avoid it somehow?

Hey Karl,

Thanks for reporting. It means something went wrong - likely during the login. 
Could you try running the scan with "-uvv" (two v's) and share the output?

Cheers!

Hey Niels,

Thanks for the quick reply. :)

It turned out that -r parameter was the source of problems. After removing it, 
the scan worked as expected.

Nevertheless, attached is the output from the scan with "-uvv" and "-r".

Thanks for the verbose output. This error should not be happening, even with 
-r. Did you compile this binary yourself ? Would it be possible to make a debug 
build "make debug" and run the scan with "-r 1000" while redirecting stderr to 
a file?

$ make debug
$ ./skipfish [..] 2> debug.log

Cheers,
Niels
