Bug #4770
Updated by Davide Pesavento about 6 years ago
1) Segment fetcher sends an interest with Nonce=1 2) After 1 second, segment fetcher sends another interest with same name with Nonce=2 3) Face gets data, satisfies interest with Nonce=1 4) Segment fetcher informs NLSR of the new data 5) Segment fetcher removes corresponding entry from from pending interest map 6) Face satisfies interest with Nonce=2 7) Segment fetcher hangs while trying to re-erase the entry already erased in 5) by using an invalid iterator ([here](https://github.com/named-data/ndn-cxx/blob/a3bf4319ed483a4a6fe2c96b79ec4491d7217f00/src/util/segment-fetcher.cpp#L286)) See attached folder for reproduction on a small scale.

Workaround Short term solution is to set `useConstantInterestTimeout` useConstantInterestTimeout to true so that segment fetcher will not send interests before actual timeout.
