Gdb not producing core dump & running under gdb causes crash

[1337]

So my first problem is gdb is not producing core dump though everything i need is set.

soft core is on unlimited, i typed ulimit -c unlimited, and i have gdb installed, and all those were present before the server crashed.

But still its not producing core files. The crash only happens during woe or root cause is still unknown and can't reproduce, but it happened more than 4 times already.

I was told to try running the server under gdb instead using the following:

I enter "gdb ./map-server_sql"

then "run"

to execute the map-server_sql.

Then this appeared.

Program received signal SIGPIPE, Broken pipe.

The crash after i ran it under gdb seems to be unrelated to the woe crash, because without running it under gdb its not crashing like that.

It crashed after few mins of being executed via gdb.

I actually moved to a new host, and on the old host i had no problem with core dumps(even if i don't run the map server via gdb) and they are being produced, so I could see the cause of previous crashes.

I would really appreciate any help right now, thanks in advance!

Hi Prontera Maze,

I would suggest that you post the debug report in the Source Help section.
