Testing and Deployment

Hi there,

When using the BB Simulator 5.0.0.621 for the BB 9650 and navigating with my computers mouse, I keep getting the "device Error (DE427) Message queue full".

After that, no matter if I choose "ignore" or another option, it just hangs and I can´t use it anymore.

This happens regularly and it really irritates me.

Does anyone have a solution or explanation to this issue by chance?

Haven't found anything here or on google...

Thanks in advance!

Cheers,

Nils

This is an issue with Windows and/or the simulator executable itself (not the BlackBerry JVM and applications running within it).  Does it only occur with this particular BlackBerry smartphone simulator or any simulator?  What version of Windows are you running?  Does this only when the simulator is doing something specific (playing a video, displaying the camera preview, etc...) or does it happen all of the time?

Hi Mark and thanks for the quick response!

Sorry, should have mentioned this in my first post already:

I´m using Windows Vista Business SP2.

I could just reproduce the exact same error in the BB Simulator 5.0.0.681 for the 8520 Device.

I've had this error on the BB homescreen as well as within the BB browser - so it seems like it happens anywhere.

Greetings,

Nils

I followed up with our development team on this error.  They were already aware of the cause and have created a fix for future simulator releases.

Unfortunately we don't have a fix available for 5.0 simulators that have already been released.

Using the arrow keys on your keyboard for navigation instead of your mouse may help alleviate the issue.

The reason for such type of problems are:

An application is blocking the main event thread.
The main event thread processes system messages. Blocking this thread will prevent system messages from being processed and can lead to a message queue overflow.
Because there is a finite amount of storage for messages, the issue is caused when these messages are not being processed. If an application stops processing messages for a long period of time, the system assumes that the application is unresponsive and is no longer functioning as expected. This is the reason why the process has been killed.

We can resolve this problem by "Moving long processes or processes that block to a separate background thread."..
