Description of problem: Tried testcases from https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA:Testcase_ABRT_python and https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA:Testcase_ABRT_kernel -- ABRT doesn't react to either one. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 2.0.3 How reproducible: every time Steps to Reproduce: 1. see https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA:Testcase_ABRT_python Actual results: ABRT doesn't respond Expected results: ABRT should appear and ask user to report the problem Additional info: Using XFCE. Upgraded from Fedora 14 abrtd is definitely running: # pgrep -fl abrt 419 /usr/sbin/abrtd -d -s 1216 abrt-applet # service abrtd status abrtd.service - ABRT Automated Bug Reporting Tool Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/abrtd.service) Active: active (running) since Fri, 05 Aug 2011 21:30:42 -0700; 12h ago Main PID: 419 (abrtd) CGroup: name=systemd:/system/abrtd.service └ 419 /usr/sbin/abrtd -d -s
I'm seeing this in the wild. Ever since the upgrade to kernel "2.6.40" in F15, my machine has been oops-ing, mostly in the dead of night, to the extent that the load climbs into the 50's and the machine becomes utterly unresponsive. As far as I can tell, what's going on is that it's writing oops info into /var/log/messages faster than syslog can handle it, but who knows really. All the while abrt, though running: [root@moby ~]# pgrep -fl abrt 1148 /usr/sbin/abrtd -d -s 2023 abrt-dump-oops -d /var/spool/abrt -rwx /var/log/messages 4954 /usr/bin/abrt-applet is strangely unaware that anything is wrong, i.e. it just sits there and does nothing. RPMs installed: kernel.x86_64 2.6.40-4.fc15 abrt.x86_64 2.0.3-1.fc15 abrt-addon-ccpp.x86_64 2.0.3-1.fc15 abrt-addon-kerneloops.x86_64 2.0.3-1.fc15 abrt-addon-python.x86_64 2.0.3-1.fc15 abrt-desktop.x86_64 2.0.3-1.fc15 abrt-gui.x86_64 2.0.3-1.fc15 abrt-libs.x86_64 2.0.3-1.fc15 abrt-plugin-bugzilla.x86_64 2.0.3-1.fc15 abrt-plugin-logger.x86_64 2.0.3-1.fc15
The oops problem might be the same as 728314.
Correction: don't know if those testcases are outdated, but "sleep 100 & kill -$!" works. Here's what doesn't work: My XFCE session just crashed & restarted. /var/log/messages says: Aug 19 17:36:56 mireille abrt[12938]: Unrecognized variable 'DumpLocation' in '/etc/abrt/abrt.conf' Aug 19 17:36:56 mireille abrtd: Unrecognized variable 'DumpLocation' in '/etc/abrt/abrt.conf' Aug 19 17:36:56 mireille abrt[12938]: saved core dump of pid 735 (/usr/bin/Xorg) to /var/spool/abrt/ccpp-2011-08-19-17:36:56-735.new/coredump (1875968 bytes) Aug 19 17:36:56 mireille abrtd: Directory 'ccpp-2011-08-19-17:36:56-735' creation detected Aug 19 17:36:58 mireille abrtd: Can't open file '/var/spool/abrt/pyhook-1293051654-7465/uuid': No such file or directory Aug 19 17:36:58 mireille abrtd: Can't open file '/var/spool/abrt/kerneloops-1305228865-1427-1/uuid': No such file or directory Aug 19 17:36:58 mireille abrtd: Can't open file '/var/spool/abrt/kerneloops-1305573542-1429-1/uuid': No such file or directory Aug 19 17:36:58 mireille abrtd: Can't open file '/var/spool/abrt/pyhook-1310580279-9248/uuid': No such file or directory Aug 19 17:36:58 mireille abrtd: Can't open file '/var/spool/abrt/ccpp-1301102183-2555/uuid': No such file or directory Aug 19 17:36:58 mireille abrtd: New dump directory /var/spool/abrt/ccpp-2011-08-19-17:36:56-735, processing Aug 19 17:36:58 mireille abrtd: Unrecognized variable 'DumpLocation' in '/etc/abrt/abrt.conf'
Doesn't react to xorg crash I keep getting almost daily, bug #734585
