System program error detected (System program problem detected)

Do you want to report this issue immediately?

I certainly know that if you are a Ubuntu user, you may have encountered this annoying pop-up window. In this article, we will discuss what to do when we encounter "system program problem detected" in Ubuntu 14.04 and 15.04.

 

How to solve the "system program error detected" error in Ubuntu?

 

So what is this notification about?

In general, it tells you that part of your system has crashed. Don't panic with the word "crash. This is not a serious problem. Your system is completely available. However, at some point in the past, the program crashed, and Ubuntu wanted you to decide whether to report the problem to developers so that they could fix the problem.

So after we click the "Report error" button, it will not be displayed later?

No, no! Even if you click the "Report error" button, you will be welcomed again by the following pop-up window:

Sorry, an internal error in Ubuntu is an Apport (LCTT: Apport is a collection report system for error information in Ubuntu. For details, see Apport in Ubuntu Wiki ), it will further open the web browser, and you can fill in a Vulnerability (Bug) report file by logging in or creating a Launchpad account. You see, this is a complicated process, which takes four steps to complete.

 

But I want to help developers know this vulnerability!

You think this is really considerate, and it is correct. But there are two problems. First, there is a very high probability that the vulnerability has been reported. Second, even if you report a crash, you cannot guarantee that you will not see it again.

 

So, what do you mean by not reporting this crash?

Yes, no. If you want to, report it when you first see it. You can view the crashed program in "Show Details" shown in the preceding figure. But if you always see it, or you don't want to report a Vulnerability (Bug), I suggest you do it all at once.

Fixed the "system program error detected" error in Ubuntu.

These error reports are stored in the Ubuntu directory/var/crash. If you look at this directory, you can see some files ending with crash.

My suggestion is to delete these error reports. Open a terminal and execute the following command:

sudo rm /var/crash/*

This operation will delete all contents in the/var/crash directory. In this way, you will not be disturbed by these pop-up windows that report previous program errors. However, if another program crashes, you will see the "system program error detected" error again. You can delete these report files again, or you can disable Apport to completely get rid of this error.

 

Get rid of system errors in Ubuntu

If you do this, the system will not notify you of any program crash in the system. If you want to ask me what I think, I will say that this is not a bad thing unless you are willing to enter an error report. If you do not want to enter the Error Report, the error notification will not be different if it does not exist.

To disable Apport and completely get rid of the program crash report in Ubuntu, open a terminal and enter the following command:

1. gksu gedit /etc/default/apport

The content of this file is:

1. # Set 0 to disable Apportw or 1 to enable it.
2. # You can use the following command to temporarily disable it:
3. # sudo service apport start force_start=1
4. enabled=1

SetEnabled = 1ChangeEnabled = 0. Save and close the file. After that, you will no longer see an error reported by the pop-up window. Obviously, if we want to re-enable the error report function, we only need to open this file and set enabled to 1.
