Crash reporting

Equo Chromium can generate crash dump files ( .dmp ) when your application experiences unexpected failures. These files help you and the support team investigate what went wrong.

Crash dumps are more detailed and helpful than a simple stack trace.

Enable or disable crash reporting

Crash reporting is enabled by default. To disable it, use this system property:

-Dchromium.enable_crash_reporter=false

Where are crash files stored?

Crash dumps are saved in platform-specific folders:

Standard mode

OS Path

Linux

~/.config/cef_user_data/pending

Windows

%LocalAppData%\CEF\User Data\Crashpad\reports

macOS

~/Library/Application Support/CEF/User Data/pending

Incognito mode (since 128.0.8)

OS Temp Path

Linux

/tmp/cefTmpCache<id>/pending

Windows

%TEMP%\cefTmpCache<id>\Crashpad\reports

macOS

$TMPDIR/cefTmpCache<id>/pending

Set a custom dump location

You can set a custom path using this environment variable:

BREAKPAD_DUMP_LOCATION=/your/custom/folder

This is supported on Linux and Windows.

Sharing the crash dump

If a crash occurs, send the generated .dmp file to the Equo support team to help them investigate the issue.
