[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #45308] GUI.exe crashes before opening window

[Nicholas Hansen]

Follow-up Comment #7, bug #45308 (project octave):

We have the same problem on one of our computers. 
When launching the Octave CLI, we got the folloing error:

error: input buffer overflow, can't enlarge buffer because scanner uses REJECT
input buffer overflow, can't enlarge buffer because scanner uses REJECT 

The problem was resolved(?) by deleting the .octaverc file, and the .config/
folder.

The problem persists (reoccurs on startup) if any folders are added to the
path, using the following commands to generate the path:

>> addpath(genpath(pwd))
>> savepath()

The problem (it seems like) was that some svn folders were added, when
selecting the very top folder of the project.
By adding the relevant folders manually to the path, the problem has yet to
persist.

I don't know if this is any help to you, but this is atleast how we worked
around this issue.

/Nicholas
