How to produce a readable stack trace using PROSTACK?
GOAL:
How to use prostack?
FACT(s) (Environment):
UNIX
Progress/OpenEdge Versions
FIX:
This solution explains how to use PROSTACK to produce a readable Stack trace for any Progress executable that produces a core file.
For _progres, where a core file has been generated for example, start a Progress session and run the following command:
prostack -r $DLC/bin/_progres <core file>
A menu screen will initiate where you will be prompted to type your OS.
Use 'uname -a' on your machine to get your OS.
For an Alpha, type 1 for example.
Confirm the option you typed in with a "y"
Log messages will be displayed and these files will be created:
dbx.log
dbx.script.tmp
and possibly
protrace.<pid>
Examine these files to evaluate the core file.
