Hello,
I'm getting a lot of Emacs crashes recently using Org. Is there any
way I can help to debug why this is happening?
Thanks,

I was pointed to this url with a recipe to extract usefull information from the backtrace: ,---- | https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/html_node/emacs/Crashing.html `---- It did not work in my case though, since I seem to have a 'stripped binary' (I never heard that before), but if it works for you, you can send the converted backtrace to emacs-bugs (M-x report-emacs-bug). -- cheers, Thorsten ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 9+ messages in thread

Is there any > way I can help to debug why this is happening? Noah, You might consider running emacs under a debugger. It will trap the crash and then you can ask where it happened, i.e. a stack trace. The information might be of more interest to an emacs developer than to you. GNU software should not crash. From the emacs info (a description of a typical crash): If Emacs accesses an invalid memory location ("segmentation fault"), or exits with an operating system error message that indicates a problem in the program (as opposed to something like "disk full"), then it is certainly a bug. The stack trace (along with all the other information that belongs in a bug report) can be very helpful. ,Doug Douglas Lewan Shubert Ticketing (201) 489-8600 ext 224 or ext 4335 "This is a slow pup," he said continuing his ascent. ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 9+ messages in thread
