I have an application which crashes in certain circumstances. the
crashreporter header looks like this:

[FONT="Courier New"]Host Name: MacPro-stolzy
Architecture: i386
Date/Time: 2008-01-11 11:55:16.353 +0100
OS Version: 10.4.11 (Build 8S2167)
Report Version: 4

Command: RapidWeaver
Path: /Applications/Web Tools/RapidWeaver.app/Contents/MacOS/RapidWeaver
Parent: WindowServer [53]

Version: 3.6.4 (3.6.4)

PID: 1252
Thread: 0

Exception: EXC_BAD_ACCESS (0x0001)
Codes: KERN_INVALID_ADDRESS (0x0001) at 0xffc7e56b[/FONT]

But the date is wrong, the Mac OS X version is wrong and the version of
RapidWeaver is wrong. I presume this relates to an earlier crash.
How do i get a report on the current crash?

Look further along in the file. New crash reports get appended.

Scroll down further. Crash logs accumulate details about multiple
crashes by appending each report to the end of the file. Each report is
separated by a short row of asterisks.

If you are running Leopard, it looks like it is now storing information
about each crash in a separate file. For example, I have a
"Eudora.crash.log" which has all the crashes from 2004 to late 2007,
then eight more files that record specific crashes since then, with
names like "Eudora_2007_11_11-044103_cyclops.crash" (the name encodes
the date and time, and the hostname of the computer).

There is only one crash reported in the crash reporter and only one file
associated with this program (rapidweaver.crash.log)

Then you may be looking at the wrong crash log. For example, I've had
processes that go *really* bad such that their crash logs are written to
/Library/Logs/CrashReporter with name like "???.crash.log" and "Exited
process.crash.log" Since you don't give any details about the crash
itself, all I can say is perhaps you should search for files that were
modified around the time of the crash.

But i only have one file - rapidweaver.crash.log and it has nothing to
do with the current crash. I renamed the file, but crashreporter does
not create a new on, just reports this crash report could not be found'
