Greetings, I recently trashed Slackware 3.3 and went with Red Hat 5.0 and since the move I have not had any core files appearing. I didn't notice in the past because the coding that I had done was stable and that that wasn't was easy to debug without needing gdb. I've hit a spot where I need the coredump so I can debug some new code. I've seen this question before and checked the things that others were told to check and have come up with no improvements on the situation. Here's some info for you: spear@pangea:~/mud$ quota -v Disk quotas for user spear (uid 502): none spear@pangea:~/mud$ ulimit -a core file size (blocks) 1000000 data seg size (kbytes) unlimited file size (blocks) unlimited max memory size (kbytes) unlimited stack size (kbytes) 8192 cpu time (seconds) unlimited max user processes 256 pipe size (512 bytes) 8 open files 256 virtual memory (kbytes) 2105343 As you can see, quotas are off and core dumps are allowed. I have tried increasing the core file size with no good results. Could someone please point out something that I may have overlooked or been ignorant of. PS: Kernel: 2.0.32 (don't teardrop me or I'll pee on you. [haven't had time to upgrade to 2.0.33 w/patches]) Thanks to those of you that help, John Evans <evansj@hi-line.net> -- http://www.hi-line.net/~evansj/ Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic. --Arthur C.
