Docker Container not running with node-rdkafka and librdkafka

[abbey007]

Description

I am using node-rdkafka to connect my application with kafka. When i am running the application using docker i am getting error Segmentation fault (core dumped)

I have used different combination of node images to resolve the issue.

That is likely a node-rdkafka issue, please file an issue on that repo.
Also try upgrading to the latest version of librdkafka, and if still reproducible run the application in gdb and extract a backtrace (type bt in gdb) when it crashes.

I am reporting the issue on node-rdkafka as well, Also i am using https://github.com/edenhill/librdkafka.git which i supose using the latest version of librdkafka .
I have no idea how to run the application with gdb inside a container becasue i am not able to run container due to error.
