SYNOPSIS

9       /etc/abrt/abrt.conf
10

DESCRIPTION

12       ABRT is a daemon that watches for application crashes. When a crash
13       occurs, it collects the problem data and takes action according to its
14       configuration. This document describes ABRT’s configuration file.
15
16       The configuration file consists of items in the format "Option =
17       Value". A description of each item follows:
18
19       DumpLocation = directory
20           The directory where ABRT should store coredumps and other files
21           which are needed for reporting.
22
23           Default is /var/spool/abrt.
24
25       MaxCrashReportsSize = number
26           The maximum disk space (specified in MiB) that ABRT will use for
27           all the crash dumps. Value of 0 means "unlimited space".
28
29           Default is 5000.
30
31       WatchCrashdumpArchiveDir = directory
32           The daemon will watch this directory and call abrt-handle-upload on
33           files which appear there. This is used to auto-unpack crashdump
34           tarballs uploaded via FTP, SCP, etc.
35
36           Note: The directory must exist and be writable for abrtd. It will
37           not be created automatically.
38
39           Example: /var/spool/abrt-upload
40
41           Default is none, hence the feature is disabled.
42
43       DeleteUploaded = yes/no
44           The daemon will delete an uploaded crashdump archive after an
45           atempt to unpack it. An archive will be delete whether unpacking
46           finishes successfully or not.
47
48           If you decide to enable this, you have to tweak the SELinux policy:
49           # setsebool -P abrt_anon_write 1.
50
51           Default value is no.
52
53       DebugLevel = 0-100
54           Allows ABRT tools to detect problems in ABRT itself. By increasing
55           the value you can force ABRT to detect, process and report problems
56           in ABRT. You have to bare in mind that ABRT might fall into an
57           infinite loop when handling problems caused by itself.
58
59           Default is 0 (non debug mode).
60
61       AutoreportingEnabled = yes/no
62           Enables automatic execution of the event configured in
63           AutoreportingEvent option.
64
65           Default is no.
66
67       AutoreportingEvent = event
68           A name of event which is run automatically after problem’s
69           detection. The event should perform some fast analysis and exit
70           with 70 if the problem is known.
71
72           Default is report_uReport.
73
74       ShortenedReporting = yes/no
75           Enables shortened GUI reporting where the reporting is interrupted
76           after AutoreportingEvent is done.
77
78           Default is yes if application is running in a GNOME desktop
79           session; otherwise it’s no.
80
81       ExploreChroots = yes/no
82           Enables various features exploring process’s root directories if
83           they differ from the default root directory. The folowing list
84           includes examples of enabled features:
85
86           ·   query the RPM database in the process’s root directory,
87
88           ·   save files like /etc/os-release from the process’s root
89               directory.
90
91           This feature is disabled by default because it might be used by a
92           local user to steal your data.
93
94           Caution: THIS FEATURE MIGHT BE USED BY A LOCAL USER TO STEAL YOUR
95           DATA BY ARRANGING A SPECIAL ROOT DIRECTORY IN USER MOUNT NAMESPACE.
96
97           Default is no.
