Thanks for the report. If possible, please provide 'core_backtrace' and 'backtrace' files of this crash (available in /var/tmp/abrt/<crash_dir>/) so we can investigate why the generated backtrace is corrupted. Regarding the confusing error messages: reporting the uReport to our server is the first step of the reporting and it's not critical for the rest of the process -> if it fails, you can still proceed with reporting which means that - retracing is done - bug is reported to bugzilla (if possible). That means we don't really know if it would be possible to report to bugzilla until we are done with retracing which might produce unusable backtrace. Created attachment 793354 [details]
Backtrace
Thank you for your help. It was only a week ago, but I can't quite remember which backtrace it was that was unusable. I think it is this one. I'll also attach the core_backtrace file, too.

core_backtrace
Here is the core_backtrace, too.
BTW, since I wasn't sure, I tried to submit this backtrace the normal way and it didn't give the eariler error Server responded with an error: 'Validation failed: error validating 'core_backtrace': missing mandatory element 'offset'' This time, the server didn't give an error. But, the result was and unusable backtrace, just like the main problem I reported in this bug. So, I think this is a backtrace from the same program that crashed originally. It's xfce-sensors-plugin. Thanks for the files. The problem is that you are using proprietary nvidia drivers. This leads to stacktrace with multiple unknown frames which is in most cases insufficient for debugging. The only thing we can do here is to give user an explanation why the backtrace is unusable. Ah! Okay, thank you very much for the explanation. So, is this going to be a problem with *all* backtraces or just this one from xfce-sensors-plugin. I mean, if this is a sensors thing, that's find; I understand. But, if the tainted kernel invalidates backtraces for any program at all, that's a big deal.

It won't be a problem with all backtraces as it depends on the application and where it actually crashes (e.g. if it's using graphical stack or not). Tainted kernel is a different issue - it only affects reporting of kernel oopses, not userspace crashes. Okay, thanks for everything. This message is a notice that Fedora 19 is now at end of life. Fedora has stopped maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 19. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '19'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version. Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not able to fix it before Fedora 19 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. Fedora 19 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2015-01-06. Fedora 19 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this bug. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed. |
