Description
This test case tests the functionality of the Crash Catcher feature using the Logger plugin.
How to test
Edit /etc/crash-catcher/crash-catcher.conf to enable and activate the Logger plugin. A sample config is noted below
# Enable GPG check EnableOpenGPG = no # GPG keys OpenGPGPublicKeys = /etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-fedora # blacklisted packages BlackList = bash, bind, apache2 # enabled plugins EnabledPlugins = SQLite3, CCpp, Mailx, Logger # selected DB plugin Database = SQLite3 # reporters association CCpp = Logger, Mailx
Restart ABRT:
# service restart abrt
And final steps are:
- Ensure that the crash-catcher and cc-applet processes are both running
- Kill a running process: kill -SIGSEGV (pid). It must be a process that is part of a signed Fedora package
- Click on the panel applet to start cc-gui
- Select the entry matching the recently crashed application, select Forward
- At the report window, click Apply
Expected Results
- A crash log should be reported by the Logger plugin into /var/log/crash-catcher-logger
