[Bug 1549882] Re: sosreport should collect application crash dumps
I agree with you on that it's more or less being addressed in the newer versions. /var/log/crash/cores is a location manually configured, but I'm unsure why it was necessary. How can I close this bug? Should I set its status to invalid?

[Bug 1549882] Re: sosreport should collect application crash dumps
I believe this is somewhat fixed in the latest sosreport. We don't collect core dumps because they could be huge however... We do collect /var/lib/whoopsie/whoopsie-id "gdbus call -y -d com.ubuntu.WhoopsiePreferences \ -o /com/ubuntu/WhoopsiePreferences \ -m com.ubuntu.WhoopsiePreferences.GetIdentifier") Which can be used to find the errors.ubuntu.com report of a crash (with possible auto triage to a bug!) And we collect ls -alh /var/crash/ bash -c 'grep -B 50 -m 1 ProcMaps /var/crash/* Which let's us get the header information from all the crashdumps. As Jorge mentioned, I've never seen the /var/log/crash/cores before... Lastly, 3.0.1 is a very old (12.04 specific?) version of sosreport... https://github.com/sosreport/sos/blob/master/sos/plugins/apport.py -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1549882 Title: sosreport should collect application crash dumps To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/sosreport/+bug/1549882/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

AFAIU /var/log/crash is not the location on which apport stores crash files, so this seems to be a custom configured path trough kernel.core_pattern. My opinion is that supporting specific paths is probably not a good idea, but it might be a configurable option. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1549882 Title: sosreport should collect application crash dumps To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/sosreport/+bug/1549882/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
