Gilbert, I've discovered that a core-file will *not* be produced if the program-file is owned by root and setuid *unless* the kernel parameter "/proc/sys/fs/suid_dumpable" is not zero. Please set it to 2 ASAP with the command "echo 2 >/proc/sys/fs/suid_dumpable". More information on this is available via the commands "man 5 core" and "man 5 proc". > Correct. :-( > > Gilbert > > ******************************************************************************* > Gilbert Sebenste ******** > (My opinions only!) ****** > Staff Meteorologist, Northern Illinois University **** > E-mail: address@hidden *** > web: http://weather.admin.niu.edu ** > Twitter: http://www.twitter.com/NIU_Weather ** > Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/niu.weather * > ******************************************************************************* Regards, Steve Emmerson Ticket Details =================== Ticket ID: SBX-276608 Department: Support LDM Priority: Normal Status: Closed
