I am running wireshark build on linux. I get a crash,while doing some activities. A core dump is also being generated. But,when i give the following command
gdb ./wireshark core.
It says,file format not recognized. Also,when i do a
cat on "./wireshark",it seems to be some kind of script.
so how to analyze core dumps?
Check the script to see what is the actual wireshark binary being run.
gdb is good for coredump analysis.
when i do a cat on "./wireshark",it seems to be some kind of script.
Probably because you've built Wireshark from source in that directory, in which case it is a script (generated by libtool as a wrapper script).
What you need to do, instead of
gdb ./wireshark core`
is
./libtool --mode=execute gdb ./wireshark core
which will do the right magic to run GDB on the actual executable rather than on the script (and to pass it the right magic to find the shared libraries in your build directory).

I'm currently trying to port my image optimizer application to a NanoServer docker image. One of the tools my image optimizer uses is truepng.exe. (Can be downloaded here: http://x128.ho.ua/clicks/clicks.php?uri=TruePNG_0625.zip)
I simply created a nanoserver container and mounted a folder that contained truepng.exe:
docker run --rm -it -v C:\data:C:\data mcr.microsoft.com/windows/nanoserver:2004-amd64
When I now run truepng.exe I expect some output regarding command line arguments missing:
C:\MyLocalWindowsMachine>truepng
TruePNG 0.6.2.5 : PNG Optimizer
by x128 (2010-2017)
x128#ua.fm
...
However when I call this from inside the nanoserver docker container I basically see no output:
C:\data>truepng
C:\data>echo %ERRORLEVEL%
-1073741515
As you can see above, the exit code is set to -1073741515. According to this it typically means that there's a dependency missing.
I then downloaded https://github.com/lucasg/Dependencies to see the dependencies of truepng:
It seems it has some dependencies on 5 DLL's. Looking these up I found that there's apparently something called 'Reverse Forwarders': https://cloudblogs.microsoft.com/windowsserver/2015/11/16/moving-to-nano-server-the-new-deployment-option-in-windows-server-2016/
According to the following post though they should already be included in nanoserver: https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/5b36a6d3-84c9-4940-8b7a-9e2a38468291/reverse-forwarders-package-in-tp5?forum=NanoServer
After all this investigation I've also been playing around with manually copying over the DLL's from my local machine (system32) to the docker machine without any success (it just kept breaking other things like the copy command which required me to recreate the container). Next to that I've also copied the files from SysWOW64, but this didn't help either.
I'm currently quite stranded on how to proceed further as I'm not even sure if the tool is missing dependencies or if something else is going on. Is there a way to investigate what DLL's are missing once a tool is starting?
Kind regards,
Devedse
Edit 1: Idea from #CherryDT
I tried running gflags (https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/f004a7e5-9024-4555-9ada-e692fbc3160d/how-to-start-quotloader-snapsquot?forum=vcgeneral) which gave the following output:
C:\data>"C:\data\gflags.exe" /i TruePNG.exe +sls
Current Registry Settings for TruePNG.exe executable are: 00000000
After this I tried running Dbgview.exe, this however never resulted in a log file being written:
C:\data>"C:\data\DebugView\Dbgview.exe" /v /l debugview-log.txt /g /n
C:\data>
I also started TruePNG.exe again, but again, no log file was written.
I tried querying the EventLogs using a dotnet core application, but this resulted in the following exception:
Unhandled exception. System.InvalidOperationException: Cannot open log Application on computer '.'. This function is not supported on this system.

Windows Nano Server is tiny and only supports 64-bit applications, tools, and agents. The missing dependency in this case is the entire x86 emulation layer (WoW64), as TruePNG is a 32-bit application.
Windows Server Core contains WoW64 and other components missing from Nano Server. Use a Windows Server Core image instead.
Example command:
docker run --rm -it -v C:\Temp:C:\Temp mcr.microsoft.com/windows/servercore:2004 C:\Temp\TruePNG.exe
Yields the expected output:
TruePNG 0.6.2.5 : PNG Optimizer
by x128 (2010-2017)
x128#ua.fm
TruePNG {options} files
options:
/f# PNG delta filters 0=None, 1=Sub, 2=Up, 3=Average, 4=Paeth, 5=Mixed
/fe PNG extra filters, overrides /f switch

/g# PNG gamma 0=Remove, 1=Apply & Remove, 2=Keep (default)

I am wondering how to
1) how to run model directly in Eclipse without GUI - just run the model like run other java codes in Eclipse and print out something i am interested.
2) how to run it in headless mode without even Eclipse - I plan to deploy my model in a remote server, which the server or my own PC could run the model automatically at a specific time of the day.
3) Every time when I change the code, I have to launch a new GUI in order to reflect the code changes. It takes at least 5 seconds to open the GUI. This is very inefficient way of model development and debugging. What is the better strategy available?
For headless, or batch, running of models, take a look at the Repast Batch Getting Started Guide. This can either allow you to run multiple runs without a GUI, as in (1), or if you look at section 9.2, it will allow you to run from the command line without invoking Eclipse, as in your case (2). If you want more control, I'd suggest looking at the InstanceRunner class and utilize the complete_model.jar payload that is generated by the Batch GUI or batch_runner.jar.
Unarchive the complete_model.jar
Then use the InstanceRunner class from the command line, like so from within the complete_model directory
java -Xmx512m -cp "../lib/*" repast.simphony.batch.InstanceRunner \
-pxml ../scenario.rs/batch_params.xml \
-scenario ../scenario.rs \
-id $instance \
-pinput localParamFile.txt
where the localParamFile.txt is an unrolled parameter file specifying the combination(s) of parameters to run (see the unrolledParamFile.txt within the payload for an example) and if you're running just one instance this would just be one line.
After using "Source installation on macOS" to install drake, "Bazel built//..." and " Bazel test//..." are done. The question is: how I run an example , for examples/acrobot/run_swing_up ? Should I input a command like: Bazel-bin/examples/acrobot/run_swing_up ?
Yup, you can either run it via bazel run or ./bazel-bin (the latter being better for running multiple processes, having stdin access, etc.):
https://drake.mit.edu/bazel.html
Some of the examples also have brief READMEs or docs on how to run it; e.g.:
jaco arm

I am trying to determine my testcoverage. To do this I compile my program with a newer version of gcc:
CC=/usr/local/gcc8/bin/gcc FC=/usr/local/gcc8/bin/gfortran ./configure.sh -external cmake -d
After compiling this with the --coverage option I run my tests and this creates *.gcda, *.gcno and *.o.provides.build files. And if I run something like:
> $ /usr/local/gcc8/bin/gcov slab_dim.f90.gcda [±develop ●]
File '/Local/tmp/fleur/cdn/slab_dim.f90'
Lines executed:0.00% of 17
Creating 'slab_dim.f90.gcov'
Which shows me, that gcov runs fine. However if I try to run lcov on these results:
lcov -t "result" -o ex_test.info -c -d CMakeFiles/
I get error messages like these for every file:
Processing fleur.dir/hybrid/gen_wavf.F90.gcda
/Local/tmp/fleur/build.debug/CMakeFiles/fleur.dir/hybrid/gen_wavf.F90.gcno:version 'A82*', prefer '408R'
/Local/tmp/fleur/build.debug/CMakeFiles/fleur.dir/hybrid/gen_wavf.F90.gcno:no functions found
geninfo: WARNING: gcov did not create any files for /Local/tmp/fleur/build.debug/CMakeFiles/fleur.dir/hybrid/gen_wavf.F90.gcda!
This is the same error message I get when I use the systems standard /usr/bin/gcov
This leads me to believe that lcov calls the old gcov rather than the new one. How do I force gcov to use the new version?
The simplest solution I found was to run /usr/bin/gcov-8 instead of /usr/bin/gcov.
The $PATH environment variable needs to be to extended by /usr/local/gcc8/bin/
The source of the error is clear, from the fact that you get the same result by using /usr/bin/gcov. /usr/bin/gcov should be a link to a binary from the installed compiler, but in your case the link doesn't point to a binary within gcc 8.2 installation.
You can delete the link and re-create it to point to the correct gcov or you can setup something like update-alternatives to change the version of gcov when you change the default compiler.
The previous answer should work as well if you have a binary called gcov in /usr/local/gcc8/bin, because if you add that path, into your environment PATH first, it will be selected first.
bazel run typically occupies the Bazel server, blocking other commands.
https://github.com/bazelbuild/bazel/blob/c484f19a2cf7427887d6e4c71c8534806e1ba83e/scripts/bazel-run.sh is a fantastic replacement
Question: what's a good way for end-users to get hold of that shell script and add to their path? Can we make that part of the bazel install?
I tried ls -R $(bazel info install_base) | grep bazel-run but no luck there.
Bazel run is a good replacement for end-user to run a Bazel command if you need to run interactively or multiple command (#2337). There has been no need for us to consider it as an installation script.
Please file an issue on Github to discuss the possibility of installing it along with Bazel.
