Thread: [Gaim-devel] Gaim crash on MSN

SourceForge Headquarters 1320 Columbia Street Suite 310 San Diego, CA 92101 +1 (858) 422-6466

Hey,

Just re-done my gaim CVS, and now for some reason whenever Gaim connects
to MSN it segment falts and exits.

And just a note that I love the new ICQ server sync :P

Is there any chance you could get a backtrace from the crash?
Instructions for doing this are available at http://gaim.sf.net/gdb.php

Thanks

Hi,

I would do, however for some reason it aint making a core file, or if it
is I cant find it.  Im running RH8 and have no idea where the settings
are to enable core dumps.  If someone can tell me how to enable them it
would be great...

Thanks

run:

ulimit -c unlimited

before you run gaim

alternatively, launch gaim, then attach to it with gdb:

gdb gaim <pid>

remove that msn friendly name reset plugin.  It it what is dying, and as
of the release you're running, it's rather useless ;-)
