Description Martin Kudlej 2010-06-16 09:37:41 UTC
Description of problem:
If I set up Condor and OS for creating corefiles, Condor just log crash of daemons to logs and doesn't create corefile in $(LOG) directory.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
condor-7.4.3-0.17.el5

Actual results:
There is just log entry for crash and there isn't any corefile for that crash.

Expected results:
There will be always corefile for all crashes of daemons.

Additional info:
Settings for generating corefiles:
# common part rhel4/5/...
ulimit -c unlimited
export DAEMON_COREFILE_LIMIT='unlimited'
grep DAEMON_COREFILE_LIMIT /etc/sysconfig/init ||
  echo "DAEMON_COREFILE_LIMIT='unlimited'" >>/etc/sysconfig/init

  
# rhel5/... only
echo 2 > /proc/sys/fs/suid_dumpable

# rhel4 only
echo 2 > /proc/sys/kernel/suid_dumpable

grep ^CREATE_CORE_FILES ${condor_config} || \
  echo "CREATE_CORE_FILES = True" >> ${condor_config}
  
# condor optional (useful in some cases)
grep ^ABORT_ON_EXCEPTION ${condor_config} || \
 echo "ABORT_ON_EXCEPTION = True" >> ${condor_config}

Comment 1 Matthew Farrellee 2010-08-30 10:53:03 UTC
Is this a request for ABORT_ON_EXCEPTION and CREATE_CORE_FILES to default to true?

The OS specific pieces should not be controlled by Condor or its RPM.

Comment 2 Martin Kudlej 2010-09-16 09:55:31 UTC
For example this https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=628034#c7 doesn't generate any core file. There are set all configuration variables from Description(except of Abort_on_exception) and it is not exception.

Comment 3 Matthew Farrellee 2013-01-08 18:57:48 UTC
I'm unaware of any reports of this since the original filing.

If this issue resurfaces please reopen.
