# Troubleshooting with Out-of-Process Dump Files

On Linux platforms, the File Content Extraction child process can produce a dump file in the event of an abnormal termination.

To enable dump files

- Set the environment variable `KVOOP_DUMP_ENABLE` to 1.

When you enable out-of-process dump files, if an abnormal termination occurs, File Content Extraction creates a file `*pid*_core_info.txt` in the working directory, where `*pid*` is the pid of the child process.

To provide the most useful information for File Content Extraction to diagnose the issue, you can install the `eu-stack` utility, which is part of the `elfutils` package.
