Getting sigsegv error with only a printf statement

[CubixPro]

I started using lua in a Love2D framework. I use bash and have downloaded love version 0.9.1 from bash.

Code: Select all

L = luaL_newstate()                                       
function love.draw()                                      
        love.graphics.print("Hello World",400,300)        
end                         

I executed this using love main.lua yet I'm getting sigsegv error.
Any help in this matter would be appreciated.

What is bash, besides Bourne-Again SHell? What OS is this? What graphics card/driver?

I use Windows 10 with an Ubuntu subsystem. Bash is the terminal. And the graphics card is Intel HD Graphics.

0.9.1 is horribly outdated. You should get a newer version.

Code: Select all

L = luaL_newstate()

You have this in your Lua file? Where did you get this from? I may be missing something here, but that's part of the Lua C API and has no place in Lua code. I don't think it's even defined in Lua.

So I installed love version 11.1 and removed the line 1 yet I keep getting the segmentation fault.

As a sanity check, does löve run fine if you try running it without any linux subsystem, and just with "vanilla" win10? Can you run your project like that?

And, does it run the no game screen if you just execute 'love' with no parameters?

Yes I tried this as well. Didn’t work.

I mostly use bash and since it was installed in the subsystem, I’d have to download it for windows again.

just with "vanilla" win10?

Can you explain this part again?

Then, for the sake of us helping you easier, do download it for windows and try it there.
Also, by vanilla, i meant exactly that, that you should forego the subsystem and try it on windows itself.
