Thanks for yor reply.
Yes, that started the program. This is my testing program, but if I have a real program, I cannot reproduce the problem easily by simply re-run it because there could be thousands of inputs and I don't know where and how it can crash. The purpose of running gdb is to find the problem (postmortem analyze).

Hi,
I just wanted to know is there any tool avaliable for core analysis on hp-ux. I have heard about q4 utility. But I think it is used for analysis of system crash dump and not for core dump produced by a user process.
gdb doesn't give much information unless the binary is debug-build.

apport-cli
apport-cli(1) General Commands Manual apport-cli(1)
NAME
apport-cli - Command line client for reporting problems
SYNOPSIS
apport-cli
apport-cli -c report
apport-cli -f -p package
apport-cli -f -P pid
DESCRIPTION
apport automatically collects data from crashed processes and compiles a problem report in /var/crash/. This is a command line frontend for
reporting those crashes to the developers. It can also be used to report bugs about packages or running processes.
For desktop systems with a graphical user interface, you should consider installing the GTK or Qt user interface (apport-gtk or apport-qt).
apport-cli is mainly intended to be used on servers.
When called without any options, it processes the pending crash reports and offers to report them one by one. You can also display the
entire report to see what is sent to the software developers.
OPTIONS
-c report, --crash-file=report
Instead of walking over the new crash reports in /var/crash/, report a particular report in an arbitrary file location. This is
useful for copying a crash report to a machine with internet connection and reporting it from there.
-f, --file-bug
Report a (non-crash) problem. Requires specifying --package or --pid. This will automatically attach information about your operat-
ing sytem and the package version etc. to the bug report, so that the developers have some important context.
-p package, --package=package
When being used in --file-bug mode, specify the package to report the problem against.
-P pid, --pid=pid
When being used in --file-bug mode, specify the PID (process ID) of a running program to report the problem against. This can be
determined with e. g. ps -ux.
ENVIRONMENT
APPORT_IGNORE_OBSOLETE_PACKAGES
Apport refuses to create bug reports if the package or any dependency is not current. If this environment variable is set, this
check is waived. Experts who will thoroughly check the situation before filing a bug report can define this in their ~/.bashrc or
temporarily when calling the apport frontend (-cli, -gtk, or -qt).
