I had my first production system Asterisk crash today with no apparent reason for the crash. This was on a production server that hasn't had anything changed on it for 3 weeks and is rebooted every night. The load was low when the crash occured and the logs give no indications as to what caused it. This server usually goes through about 5000 calls in a day with no problems. I have a core dump file for this crash but it is 182MB and I don't want to go posting it anywhere because it is so large. I would like to diagnose this but am not sure how to proceed with this core dump file. Does anyone have a set of instructions on how to debug an Asterisk core dump file? Or would someone be willing to download my core file and see what went wrong? Thanks, MATT---

I've posted this as a bug: http://bugs.digium.com/bug_view_page.php?bug_id=0001124 And I found this site very informative about core dumps: http://turing.gcsu.edu/~adimitro/viewcore/ MATT--- -----Original Message----- From: Andrew Thompson [mailto:asteriskuser@aktzero.com] Sent: Friday, February 27, 2004 11:45 AM To: asterisk-users@lists.digium.com Subject: RE: [Asterisk-Users] Core dump crash mattf wrote:> I had my first production system Asterisk crash today with no > apparent reason for the crash.
