ssh coredump on HP-UX 11.11

[Christian Deutsch_1]

Hi folks,

I have an ssh coredump on HP-UX 11.11 (attached).

core is happening when I try to call "ssh -e validhostname" from Gnome 1.4 (Gnome downloaded from HP server) using a launcher.

ssh -e rlogin validhostname works fine, only ssh is giving me coredumps.

As far as I could tell no patches for ssh are available, is that right?

Any ideas?

If you can even find a fast solution you will get 10 points of course!

Thanks, Christian

Hi Christian,

Secure Shell A.03.81.004 is bit old, try upgrading to A.04.30.014 which has lot more fixes.

http://h20293.www2.hp.com/portal/swdepot/displayProductInfo.do?productNumber=T1471AA

-Arun

[Jonathan Fife]

I don't know of any patches for SecureShell, but you are using an older version. The latest is A.04.30.014 at http://h20293.www2.hp.com/portal/swdepot/displayProductInfo.do?productNumber=T1471AA.

I would try updating to that before researching any further.

[Christian Deutsch_1]

Thanks for the link to the newer ssh bits.

Unfortunately there is no progress here.

I installed the new bits and checked the recommended prerequisites libc and pthreads. I already have these (newer) patches installed:

PHCO_31903 1.0 libc cumulative patch
PHCO_29109 1.0 Pthread enhancement and fixes

Now what? New corefile is attached.

what string of new ssh binary:

Hi Christian,

There is something wrong obviously. Secure shell should be fault tolerant. You can call HP Support and fill a Jag. So, this issue will be fixed in the next release.

What does "file core" says ?

[Christian Deutsch_1]

I installed the latest libc patch and corequisite, now the coredump looks a little different. Some output from what and gdb. Any more ideas? Seems to be something with a shared library list?
