If Platinum crashes look in /pogle/data/debug directory to see if there is a recently created file called core.YYY. Double click and a message "IRIX core dump of 'XXX'" will appear.
In a unix shell type dbx /pogle/bin/apps/XXX
/pogle/data/debug/core.YYY
(where XXX is the application name and YYY is the core file extension)
For example type
dbx /pogle/bin/apps/listman /pogle/data/debug/core.listmanager
Then type t. Then type quit.
A trace of the program will be shown. Hi-light this with the mouse and then click with the middle button over the desktop. Then email the resulting text file to Pandora.
If dbx does not run, then download these files
http://pogle.pandora-int.com/pandora/download/dbx
http://pogle.pandora-int.com/pandora/download/dbx.help
http://pogle.pandora-int.com/pandora/download/dbxpcs
into /usr/people/pogle and then type the following into a unix shell
su
mv dbx /bin
mv dbx.help /usr/lib
mv dbxpcs /usr/lib
Now try dbx again.
Some single character debug messages appear on the Pogle K2 messages section in the lower half of the debug panel. The 1 character debug messages may be mixed with other messages so you may need to look hard to find them. The following tables describe the messages.
