[HACKERS] capturing regression test core dump
Is there any way to get the regression tests to write a core dump file somewhere that I can get at it? I tried ulimit -c unlimited but can't find any core file lying around after I reproduce the crash. -- Robert Haas EnterpriseDB: http://www.enterprisedb.com The Enterprise PostgreSQL Company -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers

In case you're on OSX, the core dumps there are written to /cores, not to the cwd of the process. best regards, Florian Pflug -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers

I tried ulimit -c unlimited but can't find any core file lying around after I reproduce the crash. Are you using a temp install? If so, the core files are going to end up there, and thus go away when that's deleted. You could change the core_pattern if you're on Linux (see core(5)) but it's probably easier to use make installcheck instead. -- Álvaro Herrera alvhe...@commandprompt.com The PostgreSQL Company - Command Prompt, Inc.
