[asterisk-users] [SOLVED] Re: Feature Request: what about "core stop panic" ?
Hello, After testing "pkill -SEGV -f /usr/sbin/asterisk" on Debian Jessie platform, I've got several questions : 1. When I issue a "cd /tmp; asterisk -cvvvvvvvvvvvg -U asterisk -G asterisk" command, and then issue a "pkill -SEGV asterisk" command, I can read on Asterisk console: *CLI> Segmentation error (core dumped) (*) I translated into english the exact output I got. I see a /tmp/core file exists. My asterisk.conf includes: full = verbose,notice,warning,error,debug After Asterisk's stop, my /var/log:asterisk/full doesn't include any mention to Segmentation error. I cannot find anything in dmesg, /var/log/messages or /var/log/kern.log as I did when a real segmentation fault occurred on production system. I would expect Asterisk to log something. Is this expected behaviour ? 2. When I issue a "cd /tmp; systemctl start asterisk" command, and then issue a "pkill -SEGV asterisk" command, I can read on Asterisk console: Disconnected from Asterisk server Asterisk cleanly ending (0). Executing last minute cleanups I cannot find any core file anyware. File /var/log:asterisk/full doesn't include any mention to Segmentation error. Where should core file be created when Asterisk is run as a daemon by asterisk user and group ? Is there a setting I can use to specify the directory used (so that we can make sure appropriate ownership is set) ?

Asterisk can't really log anything when it ends abruptly because of critical signals like SEGV and since it was user initiated, rather than an actual SEGV, there won't be a message in the kernel log buffer.> > > 2.

For Asterisk to produce the core file, it has to be started with the '-g' option so make sure your asterisk.service file is adding the option.> > Cheers > > > 2016-09-05 13:36 GMT+02:00 Olivier <oza.4h07 at gmail.com>: > >> >> >> 2016-09-02 20:40 GMT+02:00 George Joseph <gjoseph at digium.com>: >> >>> >>> >>> On Fri, Sep 2, 2016 at 9:34 AM, Olivier <oza.4h07 at gmail.com> wrote: >>> >>>> Hello, >>>> >>>> I had a recent case where Asterisk stopped due to a segfault. >>>> This reminded me that being sure that whenever such issue occurs, it's >>>> useful to have a core file or various data at hand to analyze and exchange >>>> with support teams. >>>> >>>> How can you double check a running Asterisk system would produce such >>>> data if a segfault arrises ? >>>> >>>> 1.
