Getting the error :pointer being freed was not allocated *** set a breakpoint in malloc_error_break to debug

I am getting the below error :

malloc: *** error for object 0xa68aca0: pointer being freed was not allocated
*** set a breakpoint in malloc_error_break to debug

I already set the Symbolic Breakpoint , But Nothing happen in console, Not getting any hint in console.

I am using xcode 4.6

Any Help Appreciated.

Solution

  • You might be releasing the object too many times.

    Open up the debugger console by pressing Cmd+Shift+R. and then type in the following

    break malloc_error_break

    This will set a breakpoint at the beginning malloc_error_break, you can also try printing out what's the object at 0xa68aca0

    print-object 0x1068310

    Other way to do it is using NSZombieEnabled
