Program received signal: “EXC_BAD_ACCESS”?

I am making a command line program in C using XCode. When running the program, it initially does what it is supposed to do (asks me for a file path). However, when I type in a valid and existing file path, it gives me the following error:
Code:
Program received signal:  “EXC_BAD_ACCESS”. sharedlibrary apply-load-rules all (gdb)

I have two warnings in my program, both of which have to do with the function strcat. The warnings are:
Code:
warning: implicit declaration of function 'strcat'

and
Code:
warning: incompatible implicit declaration of built-in function 'strcat'

I am wondering why my program is not executing properly.

Thanks,
Mike

My code is posted below:

Code:
#include 
   #include "stdlib.h"
   int main (void)
   {
       char *string1;
       printf("Type in your file path: ");
       scanf("%s", string1);
       char *string2 = "tar czvf YourNewFile.tar.gz ";
       strcat(string2, string1);
       system(string2);
       
   }


EDIT: Maybe it has to do with allocating the chars?

NAME
coala - a versatile compiler from action languages to answer set programs SYNOPSIS
coala [options]file[number] DESCRIPTION
This manual page documents briefly the coala command. coala is a versatile compiler from action languages to answer set programs. It supports different encodings, variables and LTL style queries. It translates an action language into a logic program under the answer set semantics. After being grounded by lparse or gringo, the logic program can be solved by an answer set solver such as clasp. At the moment coala is able to translate the action language AL, B, C, a subset of C+ and the action language CTAID. The type of input language can be specified with a command line option. OPTIONS
These programs follow the usual GNU command line syntax, with long options starting with two dashes (`-'). A summary of options is included below. For a complete description, see the potassco-guide. -h, --help Show summary of options. --version Show version of program. SEE ALSO
clasp(1), gringo(1). AUTHOR
