Where does ubuntu 14.04 drop core files?


I have enabled a unlimited core file size using ulimit:


ulimit -a
core file size (blocks, -c) unlimited
...

I believe I have triggered a core dump but I can't locate the core file in my home, var/... etc...


Do you know where Ubuntu configures the core dump location?



Answer



I think this is a more Linux kernel thing than a specific Ubuntu thing. Check out


cat /proc/sys/kernel/core_pattern

Check out the core file man page
