sigsegv segv_accerr crash mkmapview in ios7

Question

I have an app in the field that is crashing while in the foreground. I have a MKMapView in a root view controller. This root view controller is showing a modal view controller on top. When the modal view controller is dismissed, it appears a crash is happening while rendering the MKMapView in the root view controller after the call to its viewWillAppear method. This is happening in ios7. Anyone know what could be the cause of such a crash? The crash is happening in the foreground and is not the same as Occasionally iOS 6 MKMapView crashes in initWithFrame

Set an exception breakpoint, when it is hit click run a couple of times to get the error messages printed. Post that. — zaph, Jan 27 '14 at 23:42
btw i have never reproduced this crash -- it is only happening in the field so i don't have any more debugging capability. — user1044685, Jan 28 '14 at 02:02
Seeing a similar situation. Wondering if you ever found a solution? — software evolved, Mar 20 '15 at 17:06

A SIGSEV usually means illegal memory addressing (nil, destroyed object) or you have a device that has failing memory. If you're using custom map images, they may be too large or stressing that device's memory and causing it to fail. In general, MapKits don't handle more than 100 points properly on older devices.

Try testing different devices. If it fails on each device, then you most likely have an error in your code where it's loading custom graphics.

If it fails on only the one device, then you most likely have an issue with your device. Replace it.

It's possible the MKMapView is getting deallocated, but the delegate is still trying to send it messages, hence the crash. Try setting the delegate to nil when presenting the modal, then set it back to self once the modal is dismissed.
