Top Forums Programming Core File Not Being Generated in AIX Post 40517 by Perderabo on Wednesday 17th of September 2003 09:47:41 AM

On AIX, isn't there a way to allow a process to write a core file? (Assuming it dies as the result of the default action of an appropiate signal)

It may be that the program drops core (or dies trying) once in a blue moon. You can't run truss hundreds or thousands of times.

NAME
abrt-action-generate-core-backtrace - Generates coredump-level backtrace SYNOPSIS
abrt-action-generate-core-backtrace [-v] [-r] [-d DIR] DESCRIPTION
This tool uses coredump from the file coredump and binary at the path stored in file executable in the problem directory to generate coredump-level backtrace. Coredump-level backtrace resembles ordinary backtrace in that it contains information about call frames present on the stack at the time of the crash. However, it only contains information that can be obtained from the coredump without debugging symbols available - mainly relative addresses of the stored instruction pointers. Such backtrace can still be useful for reporting and reproducing the bug and does not require debugging information files to be installed. The result is saved in the problem directory in a file named core_backtrace. Integration with libreport events abrt-action-generate-core-backtrace can be used as an analyzer for application crashes which dump core. Example usage in report_event.conf: EVENT=analyze analyzer=CCpp abrt-action-generate-core-backtrace OPTIONS
-d DIR Path to problem directory. -r Do not hash function fingerprints. Useful for debugging. -v Be more verbose. Can be given multiple times. AUTHORS
