Are you exceeding the the disk quota with your core dump? Are you blocking signals? What event (SIGBUS, SIGSEGV, etc)
causes the core dump event - if even you don't get a core file.
will show you if quotas are enabled.
If your program calls chdir(), the core file will be in that new directory.
Thiss will find errant core file
The file program will identify the source code name fro the core dump. In case there are other core files out there.
I have the following set up on a Sun server running solaris 5.8 for core dump generation
coreadm
global core file pattern: /var/core
init core file pattern: /var/core
global core dumps: enabled
per-process core dumps: enabled

hi everyone,
Right now when I do:

I want to be able to compare that s1 is NULL and s2 is "blah" or... (6 Replies)
Hi,
Can we modify the GDB source code so as to analyze core dumps from different targets? From my analysis, I think we need to build our section table statically for each target. i.e., including the various address boundaries in build_section_table() function. If this is the case, then the GDB... (2 Replies)
My program is not dumping core when hitting a segmentation violation inside a thread.
However, it dumps core when the segv occurs within main.
Any ideas on how to diagnose this?

i had a situation where a process was defunct. preap would not reap the process and gcore would not work properly (not sure why). therefore, the suggestion was to force a panic and collect the core dump. obviously you could do a savecore -L and capture the dump without bringing down the system....

I'm working on a program in Linux with a group of people scattered around the country. When we have a crash, I like to send a core dump to the appropriate person so that they can understand the problem better. The problem is that our application uses several gigabytes worth of data and these... (4 Replies)
kill -SEGV <pid> gives me the core file for that process but also terminates the process.
Can I not get the core dump without terminating the process ? (2 Replies)
