More precisely: I start the crashing program with a shell command from the remaining program. Everything runs as root. These are more or less the only programs on this (mini-itx embedded) computer running.

Re: [fpc-pascal] Program crash - read the error messages
Can you compile the crashing program with -gl ? That should give you a useful stack dump with line numbers. ___ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org https://lists.freepascal.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal

You still missed to provide information on how you start the crashing program from the remaining program - certain approaches don't allow simple access to the result (e.g. checking whether it's still running or accessing the process exit code), whereas others do.

Ah, sorry. I Forgot it totally. It is a plain console program under Linux. Yes, the remaining program starts the crashing one and I would like to check the results? Yes, a run-time error was there.
