No core

Dec 10, 2003 1 Replies

Hi,



I am running an application on uClinux, in an embedded environment. My application hangs, and I can't seem to convince it to dump core.



Further investigations show that even running "yes" and killing it with signal 11 doesn't dump core.



- Check ulimit



- Checked diskspace and write permissions



- Trying changing cwd to an NFS directory with lots of space.



Nothing. A core is never produced.



Any other ideas ? Any better group to ask in ?


So... consider the alternatives, maybe. gdbserver works pretty well for me. You can also fairly easily add a crash handler to your app that spits out a stack dump.
