First, it's better to load the (uncompiled) .el sources of related files
if you have them so that the backtrace doesn't contain only nearly
unreadable byte code.

You need to turn on debug-on-error, e.g. with M-x set-option.

Then reproduce the problem (error).  The debugger should pop up.  You
can use C-x C-w from within the debugger buffer to save the contents to
a file as usual.
