KDE generated cores

KDE generated cores

2005-06-15       - By IECISA.Ortega Gonzalez, Carlos

Hi!



I've recently suffered some problems related to KDE sessions that are not
properly closed. Some kdeinit processes remain in memory, and generate cores
without pause. As a result, the filesystem that gets the core files fills to
100%, and in some cases the machine crashes.



We mount the home directory for most users from an nfs server, and the core
files usually end in the home directory of the affected user. As the home
filesystem fills up to 100%, no user can log in in any machine, and they
can't work propperly.



First of all, I don't know why the kde sessions do not close propperly. For
example, yesterday we suffered network problems which explained the abnormal
logouts, but usually this is not the case. May the poblems be nfs related?



What logs can I look to check if KDE gives any information when this problem
occurs? The home directory for these users is in a Solaris 6 machine, so I
see several hidden directories, shuch as $HOME/.dt, $HOME/.gnome,
$HOME/.kde, etc. Some of these directories may refer to the solaris CDE
sessions, and some of them may refer to de RHEL KDE sessions.



Is there any way to check for KDE processes that are "wrong", and kill them
(ie, in a cron job)?.



Thank you very much.



Regards,



Carlos Ortega Gonz?lez
