Recently I've been running out of server space, and I realized it was because my WordPress folder was getting flooded with huge core dump files. From what I've read, it is not necessary WordPress causing these core dumps, it could be issues with the Apache server, php version, who knows what. I wanted to read the core dumps for information, but I'm having issues opening them in gdb. From what I've read, I need the binaries that generated the core dump along with the dump itself to open them. I'm not sure what binaries created it...or where to find them. For example, the php website suggests using something like gdb /usr/local/apache/sbin/httpd /path/to/core/dump I don't have access to the server files, so I don't know how to proceed. I've read suggestions that I ask my server host to stop generating core dumps, which would solve the space problem, but not the issue that's causing them. Any help on how to proceed would be greatly appreciated Thanks domain name: http://robbiewolfe.heliohost.org username: robev server name: stevie
