Segmentation fault on Raspberry Pi

Community Support Linux

Hello,
On my Raspberry Pi, I did a fresh install + apt update/upgrade.
I then installed the ZT Package from Zerotier-one.
After this, the service zerotier-one fails to start.
Actually, /sbin/zerotier-one abends with a segmentation fault.

root@raspberrypi:/etc/systemd# /usr/sbin/zerotier-one
Segmentation fault

Any work-around?

Hello.
In general, you should manage the service with systemctl start zerotier-one It starts at boot, so running /usr/sbin/zerotier-one will try to start a second instance…

What model pi ? You might just need to reboot?

systemctl does actually call /usr/sbin/zerotier-one which them segfaults (as analyzed in my previous post).
This is a Pi 4 with a fresh install of raspbian .
I can reproduce this as follows:

  • do a fresh install of the Pi (raspbian lite)
  • apt update / upgrade
  • install zt
  • Then join a network

After a reboot, all things turn green again:

Hmmm… I have zerotier running without problems in a lot of raspberrys. Faulty sd card maybe?

So it’s working after you rebooted?

Yes, after rebooting, it is working as expected!

Looks like the “official install procedure” now comes with version 1.6 (rather than 1.4.6 before) and this one does not segfault anymore
