Problems with 6.3.2

От

I'm trying to install Postgres 6.3.2. I've upgraded from 6.2.
I'm running Red Hat Linux 4.2 (kernel 2.0.34) on X86

I've applied all the patches in the patches directory and I have removed al
l traces of previous installs. I've seached through all the mailing lists from the web sit
e and could only locate reports of similar problems on Sparcs.

But I still get the following error:
initdb: using /usr/local/pgsql/lib/local1_template1.bki.source as input to create the temp
late database.
initdb: using /usr/local/pgsql/lib/global1.bki.source as input to create the global classe
s.
initdb: using /usr/local/pgsql/lib/pg_hba.conf.sample as the host-based authentication con
trol file.

We are initializing the database system with username pgsql (uid=17).
This user will own all the files and must also own the server process.

Creating Postgres database system directory /usr/local/pgsql/data

Creating Postgres database system directory /usr/local/pgsql/data/base

initdb: creating template database in /usr/local/pgsql/data/base/template1
Running: postgres -boot -C -F -D/usr/local/pgsql/data -Q template1

Creating global classes in /base
Running: postgres -boot -C -F -D/usr/local/pgsql/data -Q template1

Adding template1 database to pg_database...
Running: postgres -boot -C -F -D/usr/local/pgsql/data -Q template1 < /tmp/create.16258
initdb: could not log template database
initdb: cleaning up.


initdb simply core dumps and then destroys the data directory entirely.  I really need to
get this working any help would be greatly appreciated.

    what does your initdb command look like? how are you calling it?

.bash_profile
PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/pgsql/bin:.
MANPATH=/usr/local/pgsql/man
PGLIB=/usr/local/pgsql/lib
PGDATA=/usr/local/pgsql/data
export PATH MANPATH PGLIB PGDATA

I source .bash_profile
        then run
initdb

Since I've defined PGLIB & PGDATA in my env vars initdb doesn't complain and happliy chugg
s along until postmaster core dumps and destroys the data directory.

I recompiled the source with -configure --enable-cassert (Which I found recommended to Sev
eral Digital Unix people with same AMopen problem)

Now the output changes to:
Adding template1 database to pg_database...
Running: postgres -boot -C -F -D/usr/local/pgsql/data -Q template1 < /tmp/create.13342
Failed Assertion("!(reldesc):", File: "bootstrap.c", Line: 515)
!(reldesc) (0) [No such file or directory]
initdb: could not log template database
initdb: cleaning up.

I'm not sure how to interpret this, but any help would be greatly appreciated. I miss havi
ng postgres on my machine (And I'm not getting any done with out it)
