debug ?!

[kobo1d]

well i run a css serevr on a linux box and i get alot of crashes (propably caused by sum plugins) ..
now i want to debug and see the log, added -debug to the startup command,
but after crash i cant see a debug.log..!

instead i see about 2mb big files called core.*** ..
*** are replaced by random numbers..
this file is unreadable..


what can i do ?!

Are you sure your linux distribution has the debug capability installed? It's a GNU tool. Maybe you should copy and past the startup messages you receive.

hey!
yup, u got points there..

Enabling debug mode
./srcds_run: line 141: gdb: command not found
Please install gdb first.
goto http://www.gnu.org/software/gdb/

thx for the hint, im gong to install it now
i always start the scrds via screen so i forget about those few startup lines..

peace
