Posted by supportexpertz, 10-26-2013, 08:53 AM Edit file /etc/init.d/httpd and add following under ulimit -n which will disable generation of core dump file on your server. ============= ulimit -c 0 =============
Posted by nixtree, 10-26-2013, 02:58 PM Yes, editing httpd init script is a possible way. But analyzing the core dump and fixing the actual cause is the right way. Also you may not find the modification in /etc/init.d/httpd is preserved as it will be overwritten in times ( like after EA3 ). If you want to disable it server wide, try the following. Put the following lines to /etc/sysctl.conf kernel.core_uses_pid = 0 kernel.core_pattern = /dev/null/ Then run sysctl -p PS: This won't work with OpenVZ based servers
