On Linux based, I'm already quite familiar on how to generate crash dumps if something does crash the server.

However, on Windows, I used to use the plugins folder and enable the plugin to generate a crash report. Since it no longer exists, what is the alternative?

 
I'm not a windows user so I dont really know, however I remember that the reason we purged that plugin was because it would create false positives (e.g. a crash actually happened but depending on the case it'd blame the wrong section)

thanks for the response! I found it a bit useful sometimes, and I guess I kinda saw that it didn't exactly point to the correct section =x

Though it kinds of leave people who are on windows hanging.

 
@judas

use crash report for windows enable

// Alternative, improved crash reporting for Windows
plugin: dbghelpplug
 
crash log .rpt and .dmp
 
that was taken out ...

Napster, according to eAthena, their's wasn't taken out: http://eathena-project.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/plugins/ or on 3CeAM for that matter: https://code.google.com/p/3ceam/source/browse/#svn/trunk/rewrite/plugins However, on Hercules, it's already been removed: https://github.com/HerculesWS/Hercules
It was removed in rAthena*

I agree, you can't just take something out and then leave us hanging for people who use windows.

 
bumping this thread

yeah I want to ask a noob question, how to enable core dump in windows ?

 
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/241215

already tried that, the setup.exe throws error ... it just say failed to install

http://www.simba.com/resources/knowledge-base/other-information-articles/create-a-core-dump-for-debugging-on-windows

just tried this ... the .dmp file opens in my microsoft visual basic, but the .dmp file cannot read by visual basic ...

currently I'm using this

http://support.emsisoft.com/topic/3810-how-to-configure-automatic-crash-dumps-in-case-of-application-failures/

this .dmp file can be open by microsoft visual basic and can be read ...

but its not like a text like you guys provided in bug tracker =/

 
hmm, you can use the dbghelpplug in plugins.. it generates core dump files for windows..

I see, thanks for porting it and following up on this thread

 
Bump.

Sorry for bumping an old thread. 

The server I am playing at generates .dmp file automatically with gravity error, and I want to be able to read and find out the issue.

It's not in HEX so ROSeta can't help me.

I tried opening it with Miscrosoft Visual Video 14 (I'm using windows 8; yes ew.) But it will only give me the minidump summary, and cannot read it further.

If it's a sprite related error or some sort, I can somehow find the pathway related to the error by opening the .dmp file with notepad.

Oh also, I saw @@Dastgir's name amongst the mountain of jibberish.

Wondering if you can help with guides on reading game generated .dmp file 

So far this thread is hinting on creating core-generated.dmp files, or debugging your servers.

Cheers

It's called minidump/crashdump

You can find a lot of programs which can read that.
