Hi,

the crash reporter doesn't seem to work anymore even if I add a dummy URL into the ErrorReportServer entry within the bootstrap.ini file. This must be a bug that needs to be fixed within the build environment.

Hi,

maybe it depends on the crash. For testing purpose the developer Hennes
Rohling (nick hro) once created the tool kill.exe which was part of the
tools project within OOo. This kill.exe allows you to sent the proper
signal to the soffice.bin (soffice.exe was just the starter process)
process on a Win32 platform. I once used it to check if the crash
reports generated were readable by the ReportMail database to allow
further automation of crash report data eg. to automatically create bug
reports in case there was a given amount of equal stack traces.

Usage:

kill -NULL soffice.bin

kills the soffice.bin process to allow crashdump creation

On Win32 the crash reporter generates a dmp file which can be read by
Microsoft's windbg application also known as "Debugging Tools for
Windows". On other platforms it creates an ASCII readable call stack
based on the system's backtrace function.


Kind regards, Joost
