Process crashes while checking string recived from other process

Question

I making a some kind of project. Program need to create 3 processes. 1st one is getting a string from user, the model is: 'number1+number2+..+numbern'. After that it send string to 2nd process. 2nd process is checking that user send a valid (with model) string and send it to 3rd process if it is okey 3rd process sums 'numbers' and print it on a screen.

I already did fully working 1st process, and trying to do 2nd one to work well with 1st one. Sadly, 2nd process crashes after: printf("Zaczynam sprawdzanie poprawnosci wyrazenia: %s\\n", kom.mtext);

Can u help me to figure out what im doing wrong? why 2nd process stops? Thanks in advance

EDIT

SOLVED! The problem was with strcpy(tabliczb[k],liczba); I dont know rly why :/ i change strcpy(tabliczb[k],liczba); to straight writing into tabliczb[k] few lines above

Answer 1

msgrcv(ch, &kom, 512, getpid(), 0) looks very suspect because kom is way less than 512 bytes long. Why not use sizeof kom instead?
