Обсуждение: Urgnt. - problem starting postgres
hi, I have Red Hat Linux 7.2 with Postgres 7.1.3 installed after compiling the source code with blocksize changed to 12K. The installation goes smooth and initialization of db is done without any problems. I started the postmaster and imported the data from an export. when I restart the postmaster again it gives me the following messages : DEBUG: database system was shut down at 2002-02-25 15:48:31 IST DEBUG: ReadRecord: invalid magic number 0800 in logfile 0 seg 56 off 2408448 DEBUG: Invalid primary checkPoint record DEBUG: ReadRecord: invalid magic number 0800 in logfile 0 seg 56 off 2408448 DEBUG: Invalid secondary checkPoint record FATAL 2: Unable to locate a valid CheckPoint record /usr/local/pgsql/bin/postmaster: Startup proc 3058 exited with status 512 - abort I am unable to figure it out. Could someone please help me this is urgent. Thanx for your help in advance. Mohan A __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo!

Why in the world would you do that? I don't believe that non-power-of-2 blocksizes will work. Certainly the only blocksizes that receive any meaningful testing are 8K and 32K. regards, tom lane
