I had lifted my tournament to a new computer and everything worked fine.
But today there was a glitch in the game Waxman-Crafty.
White had played d2d4 in the game ,but only the d2 and the d4 squares were highlighted.
The pawn was still on d2.

This was winboard 4.4.1.
Tour continues and everything seems fine :shock:

I would have to see what went on before. The debug part you show does not contain anything unusualy: the second engine is told the time + move (d4), and then it just searches until its time is up. It seems the backward arrow was used (backwardinner) to step back one move through the game; in that case it is normal that the from and to-square of the move just taken back is highlighted.

It might be that the engine is in force mode here, and therefore does not give a reply to the move it gets. But in that case it should not be pondering. Where you using the GUI book here? It woud be important to see everything sent to the second engine since the "new" command reset it, to see if it has any reason to think it is playing white (so it can legally ponder after back gets the move on d2-d4) or is in analyze mode. Otherwise this is just an engine bug.

Strange that it got a backward command,it was not supposed too.
Anyway i uploaded the debugfile
http://www.geenvis.net/106.debug
no gui-books were used

Well, perhaps someting accidentally hit the left-arrow key. Anyway, the engines should not be able to see what happens on the display.

It looks like a regular Crafty crash to me. There is nothing trange in what WinBoard sent to the second engine. Crafty is playing back, and answers the moves from book. After d2-d4 it is apparently out of book, and starts thinking, which it keep up forever. It was sent the proper level command (level 0 60 0) and the proper time (360,000 centi-sec), so I really see no excuse for that behavior. It cannot be blamed on WinBoard.

OK,thanks.
I have enabled crafty's logging feature.
