Before reporting a problem with gnokii make sure that the problem still exists with current version.
When you report a problems please attach the following information:
- phone model and how do you connect (Bluetooth/IrDa/cable with its type)
- the values of the configuration parameters
model,connectionandport - gnokii version (
gnokii --version) along with source for it: git, tarball, binary package - edit your
gnokiircand enable debugging, e.g.:
[logging] debug = on
and attach gzipped output to the email:
(x)gnokii(d) [parameters] 2>errfile
It would be good if you name the problem in the subject if possible and name if it meets gnokii, xgnokii or gnokiid binaries or gnokii as a whole.
- if you get a SEGFAULT, a backtrace is needed (refer to segfault).
- if you get encoding errors always use the git version and do your tests also with the fake driver
Send resulting report to gnokii-users (at) nongnu.org
If you want to debug yourself, by default the git version adds -g to CFLAGS
when generating makefiles and the defines needed to print debug
messages when generating include/config.h then in your gnokiirc set debug=on
to see messages about libgnokii or gnokii and xdebug=on to see messages
about xgnokii or smsd.
At configure time you may add --disable-shared to build statically linked
versions that are easier to deal with.
make clean; make and then you can make install or run the programs from their
directory if they are statically linked:
gnokii/gnokii xgnokii/xgnokii smsd/smsd
