[PHP-DEV] No core file being created
I'm trying to debug a segfault that's occuring in an extension I'm developing (phpgksu - PHP wrapper for libgksu2). On the PHP site it says that if I have PHP configured with --enable-debug (which I do) then whenever PHP crashes a core file should be created in the same directory the file is executing. However, I do not see one. I've even run the command as sudo ($ sudo php /file.php) to make sure PHP has the permissions to write the file. Any ideas? -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Any ideas? ulimit -c unlimited So you can enable core files, the debug mode in PHP just stops optimizations and stripping of symbols producing a more useful core file.
