Reason for termination of node

If a node gets killed or terminated automatically after running for some time (Terminal output says Killed), is there any way to find the reason behind it?

My exact problem can be viewed here.

This question seems overly broad: there are many reasons for a node / program to be terminated. Some will be related to how the OS interacts with the program, others purely ROS-related, shell based, user initiated, etc. Your other question seems to be more on topic. Perhaps close this one?

The other question is better

I know that the other question is better. But I was wondering if there were any kind error log files or other places/procedures generally to find out the reason. I was basically looking for generic methods to figure out the issue. Anyways, sorry about it.

No need to apologise. I merely suggested that it might be better to focus on your other question, as it contains more detail, and would probably get you better answers.

Closing it like this is a bit strong @Airuno2L.

I didn't mean to be impolite, I should have took more time to write a reason for closing it. Someone that could answer this question would probably need more details, and those details are provided in the other post.
