As we know, with systemd
, core dumps don't just get written to the current directory but to some obscure journal. Now, I'm a poor old non-root user on some machine, and – I want my core dumps! I can't follow the suggestions to edit files in /etc
or run systemd
utilities as root. Can I still get my core dump files somehow?
PS – If it matters, I'm on Fedora 22.

Use systemd's
coredumpctl
to list and retrieve your core dumps. Use the PID or name of the program to select one to dump (to file-o ...
) or to rungdb
on.(Some intermediate versions of systemd use the name
systemd-coredumpctl
). Your userid must be in groupsystemd-journal
to be able to do this without becoming root.
