I am building a Galaxy (Tizen) watch app and widget. My widget crashes with this error:
crash-manager.c: scan_dump(885) > [5] path: /opt/usr/share/crash/dump//myapp.widget_29200_20210228083344.zip(FILE), size: 1072 kb, mtime: Sun Feb 28 08:33:57 2021
So I went to the Tizen device manager, connect to the running watch emulator, and browse the file system on the watch. While there is a /opt/usr/share/crash directory, there is nothing in that directory (not even a 'dump' subdirectory).
Why is this file missing? How can I tell the watch to save the file / how can I retrieve it?
The problem has to do with elevation. The file explorer in Tizen Device Manager runs with regular user permissions; so many files/folders are not visible.
You need to open an SDB shell, then elevate with 'su' command. (Password is "tizen"). Then copy the debug files to /tmp from the command line and the file explorer can then extract/pull the files to your local PC for examination.
I believe this is poor design on Tizen's part, but at least there is a workaround.
