after running an application and getting an segmentation

"gdb EXECUTABLE core" and get the error message:
core" is not a core dump: File format not recognized
file core
should tell you that it is an appropriate core file, also
ls -l core
Note that many systems now write core files named after the
process id, and you may have an old core file from a different system.
