Running Komodo Software in Debug Mode
To run Komodo software in debug mode, follow these steps.
sudo apt-get install gdb
Initiate your daemon using with gdb -args as a prefix.
For example, the below command would initiate the Komodod daemon with mining active and a designated pubkey.
gdb -args ./src/komodod -gen -genproclimit=2 -pubkey="03af2412ebf9517a43d192193490476fd0a44312c70755e07eb03b6d71338ebc9d"
If you are having trouble initiating komodod in the shell, try use the absolute path to komodod. For example, /home/$USERNAME/komodo/src/komodod
The shell should return the following prompt.
gdb>
Execute run in the shell to start Komodo in debug mode.
gdb> run
Whenever komodod crashes, you will again see gdb> as a prompt.
To recall the last stages of komodod before the crash, execute the following command.
gdb> backtrace
