strange eggdrop1.6.15 core file

Post by sys »

Hello everyone.
I have installed the latest eggdrop version v1.6.15. It runs fine. Suddenly the bot killed, and my disk quota reached the max. A core file created in eggdrop dir:
-rw------- 1 uso users 11247616 Nov 28 03:55 eggdrop-1.6.15.core

what is that for?

This means you have compiled your bot with the debug flag.

When it dies, it creates this core file.

The idea being that you can find out exacly what cuased it to crash by following which part of the code killed it.

Your best bet is to delete this file, then recompile your eggdrop, though not from CVS or with "make debug"

I found the reason.
That is because of chanstats.tcl. When I do .update it crashed the bot.
The update database was not correct and when it reads the file it gets crashed.

Thank you ppslim for reply.
