[Bug 1080978] Re: apport forcefully overrides sysctl kernel.core_pattern from values set in /etc/sysctl.*
Same surprise here, after adding a custom
'/etc/sysctl.d/60-core_pattern.conf' to set it to my desired value, I
could not understand why it seemed not applied after a reboot. Finally
discovered the echoing inside '/etc/init/apport.conf' and died a little
internally.
The proper course of action for apport would probably be to create its
own '/etc/sysctl.d/30-core_pattern.conf' ("30" being documented as to be
used by packages), instead of hijacking '/proc/sys/kernel/core_pattern'

This is quite frustrating. I wish it would be addressed... somehow...

[Bug 1080978] Re: apport forcefully overrides sysctl kernel.core_pattern from values set in /etc/sysctl.*
A few days ago we got suddenly affected by this after auto "upgrade apport 2.0.1-0ubuntu17.9 2.0.1-0ubuntu17.10". We never had any need to change 'kernel.core_pattern' parameter in the past. Sometimes, our coredumps are several GB large; so i expect apport to fail handling them anyway. Then one would need the extra resources to now extract the coredump from a crash report. The worst part is that after removing the package, the new 'kernel.core_pattern=core', which is plain wrong. Now, we do have to worry about re-setting that back to the standard '/var/tmp/core.%e.%u.%g.%p.%s.%t'. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1080978 Title: apport forcefully overrides sysctl kernel.core_pattern from values set in /etc/sysctl.* To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apport/+bug/1080978/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I have also just run into this after I tried to set a core pattern. I am rather divided on this - I would like to get my core patterns, but I also appreciate having Apport's functionality. So I would like a way to set the pattern for cores not handled by Apport. Perhaps a new sysctl (sys/kernel/core_pipe?) would be a better solution. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1080978 Title: apport forcefully overrides sysctl kernel.core_pattern from values set in /etc/sysctl.* To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apport/+bug/1080978/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
