I have install abrt on AlmaLinux 8 and have triggered a crash:

~]$ sleep 100 &
[1] 2823
~]$ kill -s SIGSEGV 2823

I did see a folder momentarily in the /var/spool/abrt but it disappeared within a few seconds.

Also I can't seem to change the dump location. When I change the dump location by uncommenting and setting the configuration as DumpLocation = /home/crash/abrt and restarting arbtd, it fails to start.

  • selinux was the reason ```arbtd``` wouldn't start after changing dump location. Disabled selinux and now ```arbtd``` has started. I am still having issues with the dump files disappearing. – supmethods Feb 03 '23 at 09:48

abrt is configured to capture core dumps of applications installed with rpm or yum. Core dumps are not captured for applications that are not installed with rpm or yum.

You can change it to capture core dumps of all applications.

Please refer to the following link.
