App crashes malloc - ios

I've been working on a Linphone custom, it all works fine except that every other call I receive when the app is running on the background ou when the phone is locked, I get this error.
But its like every other call or so...
If anyone could help me =D

In-App Purchase crashes App after release

Apple has approved our first app that has In-App Purchases - however suddenly when a user taps the "Upgrade" button the app hangs momentarily and then crashes. By using the Console feature in XCode's Organizer I was able to obtain the following report:
Sep 18 15:12:48 iPad MyApp[53107] <Error>: *** Terminating app due to uncaught exception 'NSRangeException', reason: '*** -[__NSArrayI objectAtIndex:]: index 0 beyond bounds for empty array'

This does not occur when I run the app on my device, and it must've worked when Apple review it or else they would not have cleared it for sale.
My guess it that my products array is null and when trying to purchase _products[0] (the only available one) it crashes.
More Info:
I followed Ray Wenderlich's Tutorial when adding In-App Purchases:
[[AppStoreHelper sharedInstance] requestProductsWithCompletionHandler:^(BOOL success, NSArray *products) {
if (success) {
_products = products;
}
[refreshControl endRefreshing];
}];
To sum up: why does it only work in testing mode?
Thanks in advance!
It works now. I guess Apple's servers needed some time to process the purchase...

NSAssert works in debugger but the message is missing from console when run directly on device

NSAssert works fine in Xcode 4 (up to 4.6 inclusive) when running debugger. Assertion fires, you breakpoint it, then it outputs the assertion message.
But when running outside the debugger (debug build on device), assertions fire - but with no message.
This makes assertions useless: you can see the line number which asserted, but the detailed message from the programmer has been wiped.
Is this an Xcode problem? A clang/LLVM problem? Is it a setting with the wrong value? Or is there a workaround?
Example code:
NSAssert(FALSE, #"X was invalid: %i", x );
Example output (console):
<Warning>: *** Assertion failure in -[myClass method:], myClass.m:124
<Notice>: Formulating crash report for process MyApp[82]
Expected output (console):
<Warning>: *** Assertion failure in -[myClass method:], myClass.m:124
<Warning>: *** "X was invalid: -435"
<Notice>: Formulating crash report for process MyApp[82]
NB: I'm only guessing how Apple would format the assertion message.
UPDATE: Found the problem. I was wrong with my original description:
The message was not being output to console while running in the debugger
Two observations:
The NSAssert is intended for debugging purposes only. When you build a release version of your app, NSAssert does nothing.
When you use NSAssert in a debug build of an app running on a device (not through the debugger), the message is in the device's console, not Xcode's. If you go to the "Organizer" in Xcode, choose "Devices", select your device and look at the "Console", you'll see your assertion there.
For example, I put in a line of code in a "Assertion Test" app:
NSAssert(FALSE, #"Assertion performed here");
When I look at the device's "Console" through Xcode's Organizer, I see:

If you look at that fifth line, you'll see the assertion message there.
This is very situation specific ... I hadn't realised, but we had HockeyApp / QuincyKit embedded in the app.
Hockey appears to have a nasty bug where it:
captures NSAssertions
Allows them to crash
Deletes the message
Deletes the logging
... does not upload anything to the Hockey website
So ... the messages were visible in the debugger, but only in the debugger variables - I was a fool, and not paying attention: they weren't appearing in the console.
To be clear: some assertions sometimes appear in Hockey (looking at the Hockey console), but most assertions are silently missing. 100% of App crashes appear, but only about 10% of assertion crashes.

App crashes with malloc: *** mmap(size=2147483648) failed (error code=12)

I am creating a AVQueuePlayer object by adding AVPlayerItems. All player items points to different audio URL and player should play as soon as it buffers.
As I start the app in simulator, I get very strange issue with memory. The console says
malloc: *** mmap(size=2147483648) failed (error code=12)
*** error: can't allocate region
*** set a breakpoint in malloc_error_break to debug
and stack trace points some where internal in the framework. It juts points at function #0 MP3AudioStream::GeneratePackets(AudioFileStreamContinuation&) ()
I am not able to understand what is the issue.
Even adding breakpoint in malloc_error_break, doesn't giving any info.
Can some one help me in fixing the issue.
Thanks
errno code 12 means out of memory.
Check the size parameter that is passed to malloc - it is invalid. The size value of -1 signed (2147483648 unsigned) explains the out of memory error.

Cannot start any Tabris 1.0 application on iOS

Sorry, but I wasn't sure whether to post Tabris questions here or on GitHub, now that 1.0 is available? This is a dup of one I just raised on GitHub...
I've had Tabris 1.0 for a few days now, running ok on browser and Android, but I cannot get the iOS client to start at all. Here is my error in XCode, which is the same whether it is an emulated device or a real iPad:

libc++abi.dylib: terminate called throwing an exception
This happens quite early on. I see the TABRIS logo screen on the device, but then this crash and nothing else happens.
Any ideas what I'm doing wrong - obviously something quite basic.
Thanks, John
To fix that problem you need to add the following method to your AppDelegate.m :
- (void)clientDidBecomeReady {
/*
Called when the Tabris client did become ready and will start a new session.
*/
}
We will fix this in our trial download asap.

ipad app crashes on new iOS 4.1.2 but works on 3.2

I have a app in which i play a splash video and have added some custom fonts.
The app works fine on ipad 3.2 but on 4.2 etc it crashes. The log says that i release something that i dint alloc. I have checked my code a hundred times and i dont do any such thing.
Either ways it works on the simulator and on the device(both 3.2)
any ideas?

SOLUTION:
First of all use the NSZombies and you will catch such errors.
The Problem: I had a timer setup for every 0.2sec and it was clearing a UIView and allocating it, not every 0.2secs but maybe once every 5secs.
I did a standard check:
if(vewCustom!= nil) {
[vewCustom removeFromSuperView];
[vewCustom release];
vewCustom = nil;
}
But the strange thing was i verified the code hundreds of times and I was not over releasing and either ways it worked on iOS4.2 for iPhone.
I removed the Timer but still it was crashing and then I removed the release and now it works fine.
Strange but it would be good if someone can explain what i was doing wrong.
You could try running the app in debug with zombies enabled. This way you'll get a stack trace on the overreleased object here's a link on how to set it up.
http://iosdevelopertips.com/debugging/tracking-down-exc_bad_access-errors-with-nszombieenabled.html
Assume that the log is true. The easiest way to find it is to enable Zombies and then exercise your application throughly. See here (tip #1):
http://loufranco.com/blog/files/debugging-memory-iphone.html
Another thing to do is a Build and Analyze and look at each thing it flags. In my experience there are very few false positives.
Just noticed this while looking for something else. The reason for the crash is that removeFromSuperview causes the superview to release the view. Thus, the release that follows is redundant (over-release). Won't be an issue with ARC, but could cause some confusion in other situations
