realloc string table in C crash on the 4th iteration

Although there were several answers here regarding this issue: I still couldn't fit them to the following code, as it segfault on the 4th iteration of processFile:

#include <stdlib.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <stdbool.h>
#include <malloc.h>
#include <errno.h>
#include <string.h>

struct _version {
    int major;
    int minor;
}version;

char *inputName;
char *outputName;
char **outputBuffer;
int length;
void init() {
    inputName=outputName=0;
    outputBuffer = NULL;
    length = 0;
    version.major = 0;
    version.minor = 1;

}
void usage(const char *s) {
    printf("Usage: %s -i <input file> -o <output file>\n",s);
    printf("\t %s -h:\t prints this help\n",s);
    printf("\t %s -v:\t prints version\n",s);

}
bool parseArgs(int argc, char * const argv[]) {
    char ch;
    char i=0;
    if(argc < 2) {
        usage(argv[0]);
        return false;
    }
    while ( (ch = getopt(argc,argv,"hvi:o:")) != -1) {
        switch(ch) {
            case 'v':
                printf("Version %d.%d\n", version.major,version.minor);
                return false;
            break;
            case 'i':
                inputName = malloc(strlen(optarg)+1);
                if(errno == ENOMEM) {
                    exit(ENOMEM);
                }
                strcpy(inputName,optarg);
                i++;

                }
                strcpy(outputName,optarg);
                i++;
            break;
            case 'h':
            default:

                return false;
            break;

        }   
    } 
    return(i==2);   
}
bool processFile() {
    printf("trying input:%s\toutput:%s\n",inputName,outputName);
    FILE *inf = fopen(inputName,"r");
    if(!inf) {int e=errno;perror(inputName); exit(e);}

    char line[1024];        
    while(fgets(line,1024,inf)){

        printf("next line read(line length is %d):%s\n", strnlen(line,1024), line);
        outputBuffer = realloc(outputBuffer,(++length)*sizeof(char *));
        printf("reallocation bytes requested:%d outputBuffer=0x%0X\n",length*sizeof(char *),outputBuffer);
        outputBuffer[length-1] = malloc(strnlen(line,1024)*sizeof(char)+1);
        strncpy(outputBuffer[length-1],line,1024);
        printf("---------------------------------------------\n");
        int i;
    }
    if(!feof(inf)){

int main(int argc, char * const argv[]){

    bool ok = parseArgs(argc, argv);
    if(ok) {
        ok = processFile();
        if(ok) {
            if(writeOutput()) {
                printf("Success.\n");
            }       
        }
        else { 
            printf("error processing file\n");
        }
    }

    finish();
}

any help would be much appriciated !

After reading the comments adding code sample and valgrind output:

valgrind: m_mallocfree.c:277 (mk_plain_bszB): Assertion 'bszB != 0' failed. valgrind: This is probably caused by your program erroneously writing past the end of a heap block and corrupting heap metadata. If you fix any invalid writes reported by Memcheck, this assertion failure will probably go away. Please try that before reporting this as a bug.

The solution was simple but trickey (and my fault wasn't reading the man page till the end):

the strncpy was at fault since it always writes n bytes.

strncpy(outputBuffer[length-1],line,1024);

the source string was bigger then tha malloc'ed size and violla a classic overrun.

char *strncpy(char *dest, const char *src, size_t n);

If the length of src is less than n, strncpy() writes additional null bytes to dest to ensure that a total of n bytes are written.
