[Asterisk-Users] asterisk + rate_engine (trollphone) core dump

[Iqbal]

Hi

for the past few days have pbeen playing with various rating engines, and
prepaid options, tried astcc looks fine, but doesnt include rating,
looked at vanilla cdr, etc etc, then stumbled upon rate_engine by
Trollphone, so decided to plug that in , and give it a go. It compiles
fine,

but now when I start asterisk I get a coredump

looked through the pages to analyse a coredump, but alas I'm as confused
as ever. heres the last few lines of startup

/usr/sbin/asterisk -vvvvvvvgc

 => (Call Routing and Rating Application)

So it seems to be aproblem in the rate_engine

I tried to backtrace with gdb , but it didnt help much

(gdb) bt
No stack.
(gdb)

which kind of means there is no core...which dont make sense since there
is a core file :-), it dont seem to recognise the core file

so instead I ran it with gdb and I got this
