Description Johan Kröckel 2014-02-25 07:25:06 EST

Description of problem:
The line
AddIcon /icons/bomb.gif core
matches all files ending with "core" like a file name "Score" and not only a file named "core".
I think it should be
AddIcon /icons/bomb.gif /core
to match only "/core" (path is relative).

Comment 6 Martin Frodl 2015-02-26 09:26:59 EST

I would like to point out that starting from 2.4 kernel, core dump files are named core.<PID> by default (this behaviour can be customised by modifying files /proc/sys/kernel/core_pattern and /proc/sys/kernel/core_uses_pid accordingly). Such files are, however, still not displayed with the bomb icon in directory listings.

In order to support both naming patterns, the original line in httpd.conf should be split into two (at least I have not been able to think of a better solution):

AddIcon /icons/bomb.gif /core
AddIcon /icons/bomb.gif */core.*
