Apologies for lack of detail. Although I've been using Postgres for
years, this is the first time I've had such an issue.
Build options were only --with-perl and --with-python
Below is the output when two different applications attempt to connect
to my 9.0.3 server (note, the second is psql itself):
[root@infinity postgres]# /etc/init.d/archiveopteryx start
Starting Archiveopteryx: aox: Couldn't connect to PostgreSQL. (on
backend 1)
/etc/init.d/archiveopteryx: line 24: 4240 Segmentation
fault /usr/local/archiveopteryx/bin/aox start
done.
[postgres@infinity scripts]$ psql template1
Segmentation fault (core dumped)
Kevin suggested doing a 'make check'. I did so, and it ended with the
following:
mkdir ./testtablespace
./pg_regress --inputdir=. --dlpath=. --multibyte=SQL_ASCII
--temp-install=./tmp_check --top-builddir=../../..
--schedule=./parallel_schedule
make[2]: *** [check] Segmentation fault (core dumped)
make[2]: Leaving directory
`/usr/local/src/postgresql-9.0.3/src/test/regress'
make[1]: *** [check] Error 2
make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/local/src/postgresql-9.0.3/src/test'
make: *** [check] Error 2
Also, my server doesn't seem to be logging anything, either (although
I'm using the same configuration and start script as 9.0.2)
Lastly, I don't see any 'core' files in the places I would expect.
If/when I find them, I can send along.
