Unable to run crash utility
Hi

I have a system running
Code:
 cat etc/redhat-release
Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 7.0 (Maipo)

, and I am trying to check why is crashing a lot of times. I have checked the following files, but with no sucessfull results:

Code:
 ls -lrt *.log
-rw-r--r--. 1 root root   29925 Dec 23  2015 Xorg.9.log
-rw-r--r--. 1 root root       0 Dec 29  2015 sd-client-trace.log
-rw-r--r--. 1 root root   30152 Mar  3 12:23 Xorg.1.log
-rw-------. 1 root root     158 Jun  8 14:54 yum.log
-rw-r--r--. 1 root root    4371 Jul 28 11:45 sd-audit.log
-rw-r--r--. 1 root root   12456 Jul 29 00:55 boot.log
-rw-r--r--. 1 root root   29534 Jul 29 00:55 Xorg.0.log
-rw-r--r--. 1 root root       0 Jul 29 00:55 pm-powersave.log
-rw-r--r--. 1 root root       0 Jul 29 00:55 sd-recovery.log
-rw-r--r--. 1 root root 5890909 Jul 29 00:55 sd-daemon-trace.log
-rw-------. 1 root root 34633052 Jul 29 00:35 messages

I came across a utility called crash, but to running it its proving very difficult, as you can see below:

Code:
 crash /root/lib/modules/3.10.0-123.el7.x86_64.debug /var/crash/127.0.0.1-2016.07.27-04\:13\:18/vmcore

Hi

I´ve managed to solve this problem, by intalling:
Code:
kernel-debuginfo-common-x86_64-3.10.0-229.el7.x86_64.rpm
kernel-debuginfo-3.10.0-229.el7.x86_64.rpm

them vmlinuxwas installed, then:
Code:
crash /usr/lib/debug/lib/modules/3.10.0-123.el7.x86_64/vmlinux /var/crash/127.0.0.1-2016.07.27-03\:13\:35/vmcore
