I did a CVS update tuesday night, built it yesterday, and ran the
regression test today... Here are the results of running
"grep failed" on regress.out:
destroydb: database destroy failed on regression.
float8 .. failed
It appears that there is some confusion whether 1e200 is an overflow or underflow here. Something to check in
libcis my guess. I also got errors with 10e-400 and -10e-400 underflowing.
datetime .. failed
Here I get my same old problem of: (There are others, but I suspect they all have the same root cause.)
QUERY:SELECT ('now'::datetime - 'current'::datetime) AS "ZeroSecs"; ! ZeroSecs !
----------------------------- ! @ 428 days 7 hours 8 secs ago
horology .. failed
I suspect the same stuff that makes datetime fail is making this fail too...
inet .. failed This seems to be caused by: + ERROR: type name lookup of cidr failed I did a gmake distclean,
configure,gmake, gmake install, initdb, cd test/regress, gmake all, gmake runtest. Did I miss something? Is the
betadifferent from the CVS version I got (Tuesday night)?
sanity_check .. failed
This one looks pretty serious, but perhaps it's not: QUERY: VACUUM; ! pqReadData() -- backend closed the
channelunexpectedly. ! This probably means the backend terminated abnormally before or while processing the
request. ! We have lost the connection to the backend, so further processing is impossible. Terminating.
misc .. failed
The results of this query are reversed:
QUERY: SELECT unique1 FROM onek2 WHERE unique1 < 2;
And inet_tbl is missing from another query. (Only looking at the 3 line diff context doesn't tell me much, but I
suspect that it's the same error that caused the inet tests to fail.)
There you have it, NetBSD-current/pc532 (from about a month ago)
with Tuesday night's CVS update of PostgreSQL is not quite ready
for prime time. It's pretty close though. If someone wants to
log into my machine and take a whack at it, I'll try to set something
up. Otherwise, I'll have to wait a week or two before I can touch
it.
I don't think I have the ability to submit any diffs this late in
the beta cycle safely anyway. Besides I have a big part of a
homework assignment to do before Monday, and the prof scheduled
a midterm the same day he wants to collect the homework. 8-( (Too
bad I can't quit my job for a year and finish this degree work all
at once.)
