Hi June54

there are tow ways to find out what makes the core dump as far as i knew.

1. # ls -l core

-rw-r--r-- 1 wzcj staff 552518815 Jan 16 10:18 core

2. #strings core |grep _=

_=/u2/wzcj/app/rtjf/bin/rprice_ticket

or

# lquerypv -h core 6b0 64

what version of AIX do you use?

rs6000er solution will work on older AIX versions but as ever newer and better methods are available.

find the core with:-

find / -name core -print

find the offending command with:-

cd to dir of core & use

file core

this will tell you what caused the core

debug the core file with:-

dbx command_that_caused_core core

once in dbx enter where to find the cause

see man dbx or google for more info
