It appears that the rpm for 1.1-1.1 doesn't upgrade correctly. IE: rpm -U appears to only update the rpm db. rpm -q reports pstack 1.1-1.1, but rpm -q --changelog displays the old changelog. rpm -e pstack; rpm -i pstack-1.1-1.1 corrects the issue. This bug was already reported separately and has been fixed. New packages will be available in rawhide before too long, and that can be rebuilt on RHL9. An errata has been issued which should help the problem described in this bug report. This report is therefore being closed with a resolution of ERRATA. For more information on the solution and/or where to find the updated files, please follow the link below. You may reopen this bug report if the solution does not work for you. http://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHBA-2003-250.html |
Description of problem: When running pstack against executables that were generated from c++ code, pstack segfaults. Unfortunately, it does not leave a core file around. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 1.1-1 How reproducible: All the time. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Create the following C++ file, and call it test.c #include <iostream> int main(int argc, char* argv[]) { std::cout << "Hello world, press enter to continue..." << std::endl; getc(stdin); } 2. Compile this with g++. 3. Run the program. 4. Run pstack against the running program. Actual results: [root@nsdlinux06 root]# pstack 23447 23447: ./hw pstack signal received: Segmentation fault Expected results: A stack trace (-: Additional info: As I mentioned above it does not produce a core file (and yes I am using ulimit -c before hand), so I can't really figure out where its dying easily. Also, it fails against other C++ programs, this was just the distilled down test case.
