Same thing here with -O2, I think some of the other pg_user, pg_view etc.
problems all boil down to table creation as those are created as
tables after bootstrapping and subsequently converted to views.

Yes, there are many problems in the regression tests due to some
type removal, I think, by Bruce. We're just waiting for the
regression test "expected" results to catch up.

Better late than never <grin>

Just out of interest, what platform are you running on?
(S/Linux on an SUN IPX here)

This is on a Red Hat 4.1 (Yes 4.1) system.  Thing is, it's a production
system, and I haven't reason to upgrade.

Kernel is 2.0.29 gcc 2.7.2.1. Sparc 20.

I was toying with the idea of tossing Red Had 5.1 on a sparc classic,
to see if glibc on S/Linux hoses anything.

Again, if someone wants to conditionally compile the directories to find
the offending file, I am sure we can get a fix for it.

At first look it seems to be:  backend/catalog/indexing.c.
Maybe Keith can confirm?

I built and run the regression tests from a clean cvs tree this morning
(1998-08-30 20:00UTC). I have removed the oidint2, oidint4, and oidname
tests since the types no longer exist, and have updated alter_table to
remove mention of these types. I've committed these changes to the cvs
tree.

There are some failures (itemized below). The only failure I saw before
the big OID patch-fest was select_views.

So, the current status on my system (i686, Linux 2.0.30, RedHat 4.2, -O2
optimization enabled) is that all tests pass except the following:

- constraints .. failed
Core dump.

- create_index .. failed
Fails on all create index statements after the first one with the
message:
QUERY: CREATE INDEX onek_unique2 ON onek USING btree(unique2 int4_ops);
ERROR: DefineIndex: onek relation not found
but, this statement executes just fine after the regression tests have
completed and I connect in from another process:
regression=> CREATE INDEX onek_unique2 ON onek USING btree(unique2
int4_ops);
CREATE
Is it a cache problem somewhere??

sanity_check .. failed
> NOTICE: Index pg_class_relname_index: NUMBER OF INDEX' TUPLES (144) IS NOT THE SAME AS HEAP' (135)
> NOTICE: Index pg_class_oid_index: NUMBER OF INDEX' TUPLES (144) IS NOT THE SAME AS HEAP' (135)
These warnings weren't present before. Also sensitive to missing table
from constraints test failure.

select_having .. failed
Core dump.

select_views .. failed
Core dump. afaik this has been present for a month or two, and is a
failure on the last query in the test. EXPLAIN shows a valid result, so
the crash happens farther back.

run_ruletest .. failed
Apparently not critical; the test depends on the name of the dba being
"pgsql" and my system has a dba named "postgres". The test should be
fixed for v6.4.

My bad.   It is caused by a known bug having to do with GROUP BY.  It ain't a good bug, but it has
nothing to do with HAVING.  For some reason the bug went away for a while, while I was building the test
script.  It must have, because that is how I created the expected file.   :(

A patch to the regression will be forthcoming.

Thomas, I have just run the regression test here with my indexing.c
patch, and the only serious errors I see are the cases that have already
been mentioned like the having core dump, and the postgres/pgsql rule
difference.

Do you still see other differences?  Let me know.

I am putting the two spaces after an elog message back in because I
don't think we want to change that format for no good reason.

I can see people expecting the string to look a certain way.
