If the application written in c++
creates following entry in kernel error logs:

"denied resource overstep by requesting 4096 for RLIMIT_CORE against
limit 0..."

what can be the problem??
It occurs on 64bit 2processor machine with Linux.

It sounds like something is trying to dump core but you have disabled
core dumping. Your logs give no clue as to WHY it dumped core, but
an immediately preceeding log message about something dying on
signal <whatever> might be more informative.
