Do you have a coredump? Make sure to install systemd-coredump or otherwise unbreak default install so you can actually get a coredump. - Adam -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

What the heck does that mean?
perhaps a language problem. maybe instead of "unbreak", deviate from the default install and install what is necessary to get a coredump. maybe coredump and company are not "default". -- (paka)Patrick Shanahan Plainfield, Indiana, USA @ptilopteri http://en.opensuse.org openSUSE Community Member facebook/ptilopteri Photos: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/piwigo paka @ IRCnet freenode -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

Did you try to get a coredump without systemd-coredump? Also, all you need to do is look at $ cat /proc/sys/kernel/core_pattern That should be `core` or otherwise point to a core dumper program. Otherwise you will get no core file. Default system is broken because it doesn't write a sane value there but *assumes* systemd-coredump is present and when that is not, you just get nothing. - Adam -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

Just make sure that systemd-coredump is installed. - Adam -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

It is normally installed, but actually dumping core is disabled. "Dump core" refers to an automatic procedure that copies all the memory used by a program to a file, so that developers can study that copy after the crash. Only once I have seen it used. The file can be huge, and bugzilla will not take it. Another useful thing is a backtrace, which needs the -debug rpms be installed of the application that crashes and all the libraries it uses. I'm not sure if this requirement is needed for coredumps. Run this command as root first: Telcontar:~ # coredumpctl No coredumps found. Telcontar:~ # If you get that result, forget it, your crashes do not produce them. If you get something like this (different names): TIME PID UID GID SIG COREFILE EXE ...
