Crash when attempting to read files from HFS+ partition

Hello,

I have an iMac which dual boots Windows and Mac OS X, using Apple's Boot Camp. When I upgraded to Windows 7 today I decided to move my music to OS X's HFS+ partition, so that I could reformat the Windows one. The HFS+ partition is accessible within Windows since Boot Camp 3.0, but whenever I try to add any music from it to my playlist, my fresh install of foobar2000 1.0b5 crashes.

See here: http://img121.imageshack.us/img121/7417/fbcrash.jpg

I also tried version 0.9.6.9 of fb2k, previous to this; it doesn't crash, but does not add the music to the playlist either (seemingly ignoring the files altogether.) Inferior music players such as WMP seem to have no difficulty with the files.

I did not get an option to send a crash report to the foobar2000 developers, only to Microsoft as usual. Obviously the simple solution is to move my music back onto the Windows partition, but I thought I would make a report nonetheless. If there's any more information I can provide that might help solve this issue, please let me know.

Also reproes for me. I fired up Process Monitor and it looks like foobar got stuck on .DS_Store file - trying to enumerate it recursively as a directory or something like that.
There are LOTS of entries like D:\\\\\.DS_Store\* .. etc.
Note that Process Monitor does not show paths correctly on HFS+ for some reason, so those '\\\\' is probably a valid path..
Also, first API call on the stack after foobar2000 is FindFirstFileW

Could you please provide some more detailed parts of the Process Monitor log? How the enumeration of the directory with .DS_Store goes from the start, what attributes were reported for that file, etc.
Full-quoting makes you scroll past the same junk over and over.

Well, I captured the log but after that I noticed one interesting thing - running 'dir' command in cmd on that HFS+ volume also crashes CMD. I don't think you should waste any dev time on a workaround for what seems to be an Apple product bug (do they even have QA in their Windows division?)

Apple-only repro (disk E - HFS+ with BootCamp driver): cmd /C dir e:

I might be able to workaround this regardless; while this is a case of directory enumeration returning nonsense, we shouldn't allow path recursion that actually keeps enumerating contents of the same folder over and over.
Is there anything else interesting in the process monitor log than parsing of paths with duplicated slash characters?

i´m interested in this case either. same problem here. windows7 64-bit, bootcamp 3.0. apple will come with an update for bootcamp. i don´t know if this will fix the problem.

theoretical: do i understand it right, that foobar should have no problems to "just" read for a HFS+ drive?

Does not look like there is;
here's the zipped ProcMon log during the crash

Here is an archive with .dmg and .vmdk of an HFS+ partition with a single music file, it's enough to repro. BootCamp.msi fo x86 and x64 also included (BootCamp.msi includes HFS drivers) >>>
.dmg is a raw 100mb disk image, .vmdk is the same image written to VMWare-format virtual disk (I'm assuming everyone has VMWare, heh)

EDIT: to repro with attached HFS+ partition, just drag and drop the only music folder on the partition into foobar and wait for the crash -)

Does 1.0 beta 6 still crash for you? I added a simple workaround to ignore returned folder names that consist only of dots or slashes.

Yes; I didn't look at the stack this time (it's way too boring without symbols), but it looks exactly the same. Heh, since there's a cmd-only repro, something is definitely fucked up with this driver code... I'm actually amazed it hasn't bluescreened so far yet..

I can PM you with a remote (RDP) to my repro box to make your life a bit easier, if that helps.
Otherwise, just installing Microsoft trial of Win7 into VMWare and connecting vmdk from the previous post will give you a repro environment.

i don´t know if this helps, but i think apple driver are really some sort of buggy.

i get sometimes even a blue-screen in win 7 by just hoovering a open explorer-window (that shows a mac-partition) with some files. not that my intention was to place this files on that mac-partition, i´m just "on my way" to recycle-bin for example, move those files over that open explorer-window and get a blue-screen.

hopefully the upcoming update of bootcamp 3 will fix this.

don´t know if this helps you.

ok, today apple released new bootcamp driver 3.1; with them access to HFS+ partitions inside of windows7 works 100%.

now the sad fact related to foobar v1.0: still programm-crash when read from HFS+ partition. PLEASE HELP!

could someone from the foobar dev-team post a quick note here about this problem.
just something like "not a foobar problem", "apple´s driver fault", "problem could be fixed, but we have no time for that now", "problem is not fix-able", ... just something.

i´m not a coder and don´t understand this problem; windows can read HFS+, so wonder why foobar crash by trying this.
i guess i´m not the only one who is curious. thank you.

The HFS+ driver by Apple behaves differently than standard Windows ones do. QueryDirectoryInformation command for an invalid path on a HFS+ volume returns ERROR_FILE_NOT_FOUND (The system cannot find the file specified.) instead of ERROR_DIRECTORY (The directory name is invalid.), which can confuse applications. Note a simple "dir E:\" in Command Prompt results in a crash too, says something about how robust the product is.

Nevertheless there will be additional workaround for this problem in a future version.

that would be real great!

Unnecessary reply, but this is also occurring for me.
For anyone getting frustrated about this, if you have enough HDD space, just copy the music files over to the other partition first, then drag them into foobar.

Just to confirm, the same is happening to me. Windows XP SP3 on bootcamp 3.1, latest fb2K. Works great when importing from NTFS/FAT32 disks but same files would not import from HFS+ partition (even though it's readily accessible under bootcamp).

And copy paste will not work for my library of 2T songs...
