Getting info from .ips crash report file

StackOverflow https://stackoverflow.com/questions/22722640

Question

I’ve tested my app on iPhone 5 and 4s. And then I sent my app to tester, he has 5s iPhone. Everything was ok. After sometime, when I added some features to app, I sent him another version, but now he says that it crashes on launch. On my devices everything is ok. I asked him to send me crash reports. Here is .ips file:

I was reading a lot of similar questions here, and they says I need to symbolicate that .ips through terminal. But it doesn’t work. atos command returns that it is can’t read my-app.app, xcrun atos returns same memory address that I’m specifying.

xcrun atos -arch arm64 -o 'my-app.app' 0x196054000 + 5448
0x196054000
+
5448

I’m not sure, am I need to specify that + number, but it doesn’t work without it too.

Thanks in advance, I would appreciate any help.

UPDATE:

I’ve figured it out. Something wrong with NSFileManager, it is acting differently on 64bit and 32 bit

[fileManager fileExistsAtPath:pathToCacheDir isDirectory:&isDirectory];

isDirectory returns NO, although pathToCacheDir is valid directory, that’s why I got exception. But question is still valid, how can I got some more understandable reports from testers?

Was it helpful?

Solution

I just got a whole bunch of .ips files from a Windows user and was wondering what to do with them, too. Renaming them to .crash made Xcode happy to import them (go to the Organizer, to Library Device Logs, and Import) and symbolicate them.

edit: When I originally wrote this answer, it was with Xcode 6 in mind. Newer versions of Xcode (7+ I think) have moved things around. According to Apple:

Xcode will automatically attempt to symbolicate all crash reports that it encounters. All you need to do for symbolication is to add the crash report to the Xcode Organizer.

  1. Connect an iOS device to your Mac
  2. Choose "Devices" from the "Window" menu
  3. Under the "DEVICES" section in the left column, choose a device
  4. Click the "View Device Logs" button under the "Device Information" section on the right hand panel
  5. Drag your crash report onto the left column of the presented panel
  6. Xcode will automatically symbolicate the crash report and display the results

OTHER TIPS

When using atos, the first address from binary images needs to be specified and the command needs to be run from the directory where the .app and .dsym are located.

The following command will then work: atos -o [my-app.app/my-app] -arch [e.g armv7] -l [first address from binary image section of ips file] [all addresses from last exception backtrace section]

and in your case:

atos -o my-app.app/my-app -arch arm-64 -l 0x1000dc000 0x1893e2950 0x1958e81fc 0x1893e2890 0x1000f09a0 0x195ec0014 0x195ebffd4 0x195ec64a8 0x195ec24c0 0x195ec70f4 0x195ec74fc 0x1960556bc 0x19605554c
