</span></font>Hi,<br>
<br>
Thanks for your reply. Dont the messages logged in
/var/log/asterisk/messages contain error messages also dumped in tty9.<br>
If not how can I view the messages on the tty9 console, The problem is
the server is hosted remotely and all I have is ssh access. <br>
Shutting down asterisk might not be an option, especially since I dont know how
to reproduce the problem, it just happens sporadically.<br>
<br>
<br>
Regards,<br>
Danish<o:p></o:p></p>

if you can afford to take asterisk down momentarily, you could just start

style='font-size:12.0pt'>Hi,<br>
<br>
I have a custom agi which at times does not exit gracefull and crashes in
between. The logging options are set to the maximum but I dont see something
conclusive in the asterisk log.<br>
I have noticed it crash after issuing the "SAY NUMBER" and "GET
DATA" agi commands and the agi is spawned with no apparent reason after
that. I tried running the application locally and debugged but could not
reproduce the problem.<br>
<br>
I also tried enabling core file generation by specifying the following
command in /etc/profile "ulimit -c unlimited > /dev/null
2>&1" but to no avail, I did not get any core file in /tmp or other
locations. Can any one suggest a way to get a core dump of crashing agi's or
some other way I can isolate the problem.<br>
<br>
Any help will be appreciated.<br>
<br>
Regards,<br>
Danish<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
