Hi @sonicrules1234 and welcome to the julia discourse! From the stacktrace you posted it’s not possible to say why you’re getting a segmentation fault. Please see Please read: make it easier to help you, for some tips on how to add more information to your post so we can help you track down your problem.
Without knowing more, one question I have is, are you able to run the examples in the PackageCompiler documentation? I’m asking because I’m wondering if your problem is just with the specific sysimage you’re trying to build, or if you’re having trouble getting PackageCompiler to run at all. Also, which platform are you on (e.g. Linux, Windows)?

I ran
julia --project --startup-file=no --trace-compile=app_precompile.jl MyApp.jl
and then
julia --startup-file=no -J"/home/westly/julia/lib/julia/sys.so" --output-o sys.o custom_sysimage.jl
and it gave me that error.
Edit:
Just tried the CSV example in the PackageCompiler documentation, and that also gave me a segfault.
Ok. I see you’re trying to manually create a custom sysimage without using PackageCompiler. Are doing this in order to understand how sysimage/app creation works under the hood or do you just want to make a relocatable app? If it’s the latter then I would highly recommend using PackageCompiler. See the Creating an app doc section for full instructions. Basically, you can keep your greet.jl function as is and simplify MyApp.jl to
module MyApp
include("greet.jl")
function julia_main()::Cint
println("Input greeting:")
greeting = readline()
println(greetings.greet(greeting))
return 0
end
end
then create a julia package from these files. The custom_sysimg.jl is not needed at all. Once you have your functionality in a package, you just use PackageCompiler’s create_app function to build your app. I haven’t actually run this with your particular code, but that’s the idea. Also, as mentioned in the docs, there’s a template app available on GitHub that you can use as a starting point.
Unfortunately I’m not sure why you’re getting the segfault you’re getting. I tried the CSV example in the PackageCompiler developer docs and it segfaulted for me as well. It may be worth filing an issue at the PackageCompiler repo. I haven’t had time to properly dig into it and see if there’s a simple fix. But again, this is only relevant to understanding what’s happening under the hood. Normally you should just use PackageCompiler’s nice API and not worry about these details.

I was trying to just compile it. I didn’t see the create_app part of the docs. I got it to compile now. Thanks.
