NAME¶
btraceback - wrapper script around gdb and bsmtp
SYNOPSIS¶
btraceback /path/to/binary pidDESCRIPTION¶
btraceback is a wrapper shell script around the gdb debugger (or dbx on Solaris systems) and bsmtp, provided for debugging purposes.USAGE¶
btraceback is called by the exception handlers of the Bacula daemons during a crash. It can also be called interactively to view the current state of the threads belonging to a process, but this is not recommended unless you are trying to debug a problem (see below).NOTES¶
In order to work properly, debugging symbols must be available to the debugger on the system, and gdb, or dbx (on Solaris systems) must be available in the $PATH.ENVIRONMENT¶
btracback relies on $PATH to find the debugger.FILES¶
