( [id://3333]=superdoc: print w/replies, xml ) Need Help??
I am developing a large scale distributed system written in perl with multiple machines performing different data processing tasks. Modules crash from time to time and when they do, I write out their stacktrace to a log file. I later scan the log for crash patterns.

Is there a more reliable way (or even standard practice) of collecting bugs, filing and reporting them? I am looking for perl packages or software that can do the bug collection and processing tasks.

In particular I were to write one myself, what are some of the features a crash collection system should consider? My homegrown bug collector records the buggy input, stacktrace, machine etc. Upon hitting a bug the module restarts on the next input and resumes processing.

Any advice would be much appreciated.

  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
