FACT(s) (Environment):

IBM AIX
Progress/OpenEdge Versions

SYMPTOM(s):

adb dbx debugger does not support the aix 4.3 core file format

Unable to process core file using adb dbx debugger on AIX

Unable to produce readable stacktrace using adb dbx debugger on AIX

warning: adb does not support the aix 4.3 core file format. Change core dump format to dump in the pre-430 style.

CAUSE:

Format for core file is set incorrectly at the OS level

FIX:

Change the core format file on the OS level following way:

Run SMIT (or smitty) --> System Environments --> Change / Show
Characteristics of Operating System --> Use pre-430 style CORE dump.

Set the last option to true and then adb / dbx will be able to read new core files produced (the core file must be created under new settings).
