Dolphin, the GameCube and Wii emulator - Forums

Hey! My dolphin.log get's filled with entries like these and becomes huge! I just deleted it, 9gb, and now after only about 5 minutes when playing a game it's already 340mb.

Any setting I might have messed up, like accidentally enabled debuggning?

If you are getting "invalid read" errors, then something is wrong with either Dolphin or the game you are playing. You should be seeing panic alerts constantly unless you have them turned off. Which game is this happening in?

I do have panic handlers turned off.

I'm playing Star Fox Adventures.

I thought it might have something do with Usage Statistics Reporting so I turned that off and on again, and now I can't replicate it.
Don't know if that had something to do with it.

I turned panic handlers on again, I guess that will catch any weird errors that might pop up?

I don't exactly remember why I turned them off, I think I had some problems with booting a game or similar.

No, that should have no effect on it.

Yes.

One other thing that seems to stick out is this in the log.

Not sure what could be causing that?

Are you running multiple instances of Dolphin at the same time?

Restart your computer, windows probably believes a crashed dolphin is still accessing the file. Not sure if this will fix the log size, though.

Not running multiple instances. I'll do a little digging see what might be locking that file. Just strange that it's just that specific file?
