Seg Fault (Core Dumped)

[thefakhir]

I have built Torch7 with LUA 5.2 and installed tds using luarocks.

Whenver I import the "tds' package with the command
require 'tds'
It gives me a segmentation fault.
Can anybody please help me in this?

I am experiencing the same issue, any ideas as to why this is occurring? An additional note here is that I experienced no problems when using LuaJIT, but decided to switch as I read that in some cases Lua5.2 is better at reading larger files into memory.

I actually have no idea on how to fix this issue. But I found one thing. If you have a new OS (Worked on Ubuntu 16.04 and 18.04) and go through the required installation steps, it works. I have tried purging the installation directory and all installed packages (that were part of the installation step) but the seg fault remains.

I'm using Ubuntu 18.04 x86_64, Lua 5.2.3, but the seg fault still shows when require 'tds'.

What are the "required installation steps"? (I just installed it using luarocks install tds) Should I use another version of Lua?
