Hey all, I have several scripts currently in a production environment. Every two to three weeks or so our systems end up crashing. Unfortunately the traceback's aren't enough for me to debug the problem, so I'm having an issue trying to determine what to do next. The other issue is that these jobs are all run from various cron tasks from a server, so I don't have a console to attach pdb to when this system dies. So far I'm not having any luck reproducing the issue either, so I need to bring in the big guns somehow.
When I played with C in college i remember that it was possible to compile the code with debugging support, then when something crashed I could load the core dump to gdb and work on the problem a little more. Is there any way to do this with python? Are there any other suggestions for getting the state of the system after an exception so that I could piece things together and try to solve this thing?
