Can you please post: $ cat /proc/sys/kernel/core_pattern then $ service abrt-ccpp stop $ echo "core" /proc/sys/kernel/core_pattern $ service abrt-ccpp start [adamw@ircproxy ~]$ cat /proc/sys/kernel/core_pattern |/usr/libexec/abrt-hook-ccpp /var/spool/abrt %s %c %p %u %g %t %h %e 636f726500 so that looks right? Except not sure about the pipe. Trying with the second stanza now. I'm assuming you meant 'echo "core" > /proc/sys/kernel/core_pattern'. Ah, it's a wrong backported patch, please try: $ vi /etc/init.d/abrt-ccpp - find PATTERN="|HOOK_BIN /var/spool/abrt ... " and remove /var/spool/abrt from that string I noticed this bug too. I see there's a script in /usr/sbin/abrt-install-ccpp-hook that looks like it should be the init script instead of the old version in /etc/rc.d/init.d/abrt-ccpp. And when someone fixes the core pattern they should also fix this typo: /etc/libreport/events.d/ccpp_events.conf: prinf "%s\n" "$log" >var_log_messages "prinf" is not an actual command. abrt-2.0.3-6.fc15 has been submitted as an update for Fedora 15. https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/abrt-2.0.3-6.fc15 Package abrt-2.0.3-6.fc15: * should fix your issue, * was pushed to the Fedora 15 testing repository, * should be available at your local mirror within two days. Update it with: # su -c 'yum update --enablerepo=updates-testing abrt-2.0.3-6.fc15' as soon as you are able to. Please go to the following url: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2011-14314 then log in and leave karma (feedback). I think Jon is on to something, once you fix or workaround the original bug, you get: Oct 14 16:39:04 ircproxy abrtd: /bin/sh: line 12: prinf: command not found Oct 14 16:39:04 ircproxy abrtd: Corrupted or bad dump /var/spool/abrt/ccpp-2011-10-14-16:39:02-16704 (res:2), deleting abrt-2.0.3-6.fc15 has been pushed to the Fedora 15 stable repository. If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report. |
I have a very minimal F15 install which just runs my chat proxies - bip and bitlbee. bitlbee has recently started crashing every 15 minutes, so I installed abrt-cli to try and capture and report the crash. The packages installed were: Packages Altered: Dep-Install abrt-2.0.3-4.fc15.x86_64 Dep-Install abrt-addon-ccpp-2.0.3-4.fc15.x86_64 Dep-Install abrt-addon-kerneloops-2.0.3-4.fc15.x86_64 Dep-Install abrt-addon-python-2.0.3-4.fc15.x86_64 Install abrt-cli-2.0.3-4.fc15.x86_64 Dep-Install abrt-libs-2.0.3-4.fc15.x86_64 Dep-Install abrt-plugin-bugzilla-2.0.3-4.fc15.x86_64 Dep-Install abrt-plugin-logger-2.0.3-4.fc15.x86_64 Dep-Install btparser-0.13-1.fc15.x86_64 Dep-Install elfutils-0.152-1.fc15.x86_64 Dep-Install elfutils-libs-0.152-1.fc15.x86_64 Dep-Install libreport-2.0.4-3.fc15.x86_64 Dep-Install libreport-cli-2.0.4-3.fc15.x86_64 Dep-Install xmlrpc-c-1.25.4-1500.svn2077.fc15.x86_64 Dep-Install xmlrpc-c-client-1.25.4-1500.svn2077.fc15.x86_64 I then started the abrtd and abrt-ccpp services. When bitlbee next crashed, this showed up in the system log: Oct 11 15:12:08 ircproxy bitlbee[14589]: Fatal signal received: 11. That's probably a bug. Oct 11 15:12:08 ircproxy abrt[14624]: invalid number '/var/spool/abrt' What's stopping abrt from working right?
