Question Another crash bug

I believe the problem is that she actually re-compiled the code after the crash, or recompiled, and hadn't yet rebooted or copyover'ed at the time of the crash.

Exec file newer than core implied recompiled too recently as opposed to not recently enough.

Thanks for the ideas, guys, I appreciate it very much. I followed your instructions and now we're at a wait and see. I can't figure out what's causing the crashes overall so I can't reproduce it reliably. On a wait-and-see approach for now. Yay.

Did it crash a few seconds ago?
I started to log Ser in, got disconnected immediately after putting in password - looks like a crash

Looks like it crashed about 2 hours ago, absolutely. I'll run the info and get back on that. Thanks!

Still getting that exec file is newer than core file message. I swear, I did make new and make this morning before going to work.

Double-check your lib-dir. You might have multiple core files (core.1, core.2 or core.1233). Make sure you are using the one with todays date.
