seaf-daemon.exe crashing on 'merging' about seafile HOT 10 CLOSED

We have discovered this problem just now.

It is caused by long file path (>256 characters) on Windows. We will fix it today.

from seafile.

The longest path in Reponame directory is 50 characters. Doest seafile count filenames as well or only directories?

from seafile.

Count filenames as well, for example "c:/Seafile/Reponame/dir1/test.txt".

This bug is fixed.

Our code allocates buffers with PATH_MAX size in many places. However, on Windows, MinGW defines PATH_MAX to 260 to be compatible with Windows' default MAX_PATH. So Seafile may crash once you have a file path longer than about 100 wide characters.

It's fixed by defining SEAF_PATH_MAX to 4096 and replacing PATH_MAX with SEAF_PATH_MAX.

@DenisBY Hi, Seafile 2.0 is released. Do you have time to try it out and write something about it? I think it's useful for Russian users. Thanks.
