Program terminated with bus error

ashvit — Fri, 03 Apr 2009 01:03:19 GMT

Hi
i have an executable which is throwing the core.
There were no code changes done as such. And the executable build with previous environment is working fine.
What i understood is there were some upgrades for Cobol and Unix.

When tried to debug with gbd, i get the following info
Core was generated by `scmqc'.
Program terminated with signal 10, Bus error.

warning: The shared libraries were not privately mapped; setting a
breakpoint in a shared library will not work until you rerun the program.

warning: Can't find file /opt/mqm/lib/libmqiz.sl referenced in dld_list.
#0 0xc00b27e4 in ?? () from /usr/lib/libpthread.1
(gdb) bt
#0 0xc00b27e4 in ?? () from /usr/lib/libpthread.1
Cannot access memory at address 0xc003c1d3

Can anyone please advice

Thanks

You can't debug a core file unless you are are the same system.
Otherwise you need to use the packcore command to copy over all of your shlibs. Then use unpackcore.

Thank you..
Now i am able to debug.. And the problem looks to be when calling pthread_attr_init

Below is the core
#0 0xc00b27e4 in __pthread_attr_init_generic+0xf0No symbol "unwind_data" in current context.
() from /usr/lib/libpthread.1
(gdb) where

Yes, attr=0xc003c1d3 is not aligned properly or it is a bad address.

thank you very much.. Got the issue and fixed. There was a cobol upgrade and the problem started occuring after the upgrade. The variable attr was not initialised which is causing the problem
