Public bug reported: Looking at some crash reports in the Ubuntu Error Tracker, I saw a couple that there were odd because they were missing the DistroRelease data.
https://errors.ubuntu.com/oops/b6579caa-1f91-11e4-b37e-fa163e75317b That error was reported at 2014-08-09 06:52:21 (b6579caa-1f91-11e4-b37e- fa163e75317b) inserted into OOPS CF. Shortly, afterwards (2014-08-09 06:52:34 (bd8b1dbc-1f91-11e4-9deb-fa163e22e467) inserted into OOPS CF) an OOPS from the same user was reported. https://errors.ubuntu.com/oops/bd8b1dbc-1f91-11e4-9deb-fa163e22e467 The second OOPS has all the data collected including Dependencies, and DistroRelease. whoopsie should only upload the .crash file if there is a .upload file so it seems likely that apport created the .upload file prematurely. Although, for that to be the case then apport would have to modify the .upload file again such that whoopsie noticed it. Regardless, there is something odd going on. I found a second example too: https://errors.ubuntu.com/oops/ce4805be-1f20-11e4-a536-fa163e4aaad4 https://errors.ubuntu.com/oops/d5761f42-1f20-11e4-9c34-fa163e707a72 ** Affects: apport (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Summary changed: - apport seems to be creating .upload files before data collection is complete + incomplete crash files getting uploaded to the error tracker -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1355546 Title: incomplete crash files getting uploaded to the error tracker To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apport/+bug/1355546/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
