Template:Languages/Crash reports Reports generated by CrashDumper by default are insufficient and of little use. To create a useful crash report you need to do the following:
- Install the CrashDumper plugin (see plugin card for download links)
- Update manually all the plugins from the corresponding source (see Download). This is not the case to rely upon the PluginUpdater.
- Download debug symbols archive miranda-ng-debug-symbols*.7z from the corresponding source (stable x32 stable x64 / latest x32 latest x64)
- Extract .pdb files named identically with your plugins from the archive to main Miranda NG folder. Do not extract anything to Plugins folder.
- Try to reproduce the crash. By default crashlog files (.txt and .mdmp) are saved to Profiles\<Profile_name>\CrashLog\<Current_date>.
- Examples
- Wrong: http://pastie.org/5456564. Some debug symbols are missing which is denoted by lines "(filename not available) (0): (function-name not available)" with Miranda core/plugins names (Lines with USER32, ntdll, kernel32, etc. don't matter).
- Right: http://pastie.org/5456572. All debug symbols are in place, no lines "(filename not available) (0): (function-name not available)" with Miranda core/plugins names.
Tips and tricks
- Upload your crash reports to pastebin.com or pastie.org.
- Each time you update the plugins you have to re-download the debug symbols.
