https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=344386 Summary: kdump fails because shipping kernel rpm contains empty makedumpfile.config Product: openSUSE 10.3 Version: Final Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Major Priority: P5 - None Component: Kernel AssignedTo: bwalle@novell.com ReportedBy: rangelino@novell.com QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: Field Engineer In the process of testing kdump in openSuSE 10.3 on x86_64 platform, I've run into a problem whereby we get an empty vmcore file and the dump fails. Upon inspection of log file, it seems the /usr/src/linux-2.6.22.12-0.1-obj/x86_64/default//makedumpfile.config is empty. Here is the error msg: doneread_vmcoreinfo_basic_info: Invalid format in /usr/src/linux-2.6.22.12-0.1-obj/x86_64/default//makedumpfile.config That file ships with messi:/usr/src/packages/SOURCES/makedumpfile # rpm -ql kernel-default-2.6.22.12-0.1 | egrep makedumpfile /usr/src/linux-2.6.22.12-0.1-obj/x86_64/default/makedumpfile.config messi:/usr/src/packages/SOURCES/makedumpfile # l /usr/src/linux-2.6.22.12-0.1-obj/x86_64/default//makedumpfile.config -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 2007-11-07 08:41 /usr/src/linux-2.6.22.12-0.1-obj/x86_64/default//makedumpfile.config -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
