Hello,

I successfully reproduced the crash with your configuration. The problem was in the padding template function, and has nothing to do with the earlier java problems.

If you intended to use the default (space) character for padding, you don't have to provide the third argument to the function. (Or provide the space character explicitly: '' -> ' ')

The problem exist, because in the padding function we divide with the length of the provided padding string

I will create a pull request to correct it.

Br,

Laci

Oh my...

At least we now know who takes care of your core file!
Reading
https://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/systemd-coredump.html will
probably help
