Обсуждение: pgmonitor on solaris
Hi Is there a pgmonitor version for Solaris?? It dies with: Can't run 'ps': awk: syntax error near line 3 awk: illegal statement near line 3 awk: illegal statement near line 4 Please send in a patch. I tried to fix it whith: 1 - correct the path to ps. 2 - convert Linux ps args to Solaris 2.5.1 ps args. Step 2 did not work, I could not find equivalents to x,w args and I do not know if it is the only think that must be fixed. Thank you

The x and w options for ps are BSD-style (not Linux). On Solaris you'll find a BSD-style ps under /usr/ucb/. With the SysV-style ps at /usr/bin/ps the -e option is the closest thing to it, but it probably won't work with pgmonitor. -- Peter Eisentraut peter_e@gmx.net http://yi.org/peter-e/
You don't mention the version of pgmonitor, but 0.27 is the most recent. I just made a few awk fixes. Maybe that will fix it. Strange it is mentining an 'awk' error here. My guess is that it doesn't like some of the 'awk' commands I have used. Does anyone see some non-portable awk stuff in there? Can you run the command manually to find the part of the awk it is failing with?

Looks like your problem is not with ps, but with awk. pgmonitor uses
a rather complicated awk program that is probably not too portable.
I hadn't complained about it before because I checked that it worked
with the vendor awk in HPUX, which I figured ought to be sufficiently
behind the times ;-). Looks like I was mistaken. Bruce, can you
simplify that awk program?

I can't figure out how to simplify it, but I did find the use of \{
instead of { in the code and released a new version, 0.27. Hopefully
that will take care of it. If not, I can start stripping lines out of
the awk program until we fine the problem.

The problem is that Solaris uses the "original" version of Awk by default
(apparently nobody knows why).
This version lacks many features which have been available in later versions
for approximately forever (in computing chronology :-)).
Two other versions exist on Solaris:
* "nawk" ("new awk", i.e. the updated "old awk")
* /usr/xpg4/bin/awk (another, posix-compliant awk).
Solaris seems to be weird this way. Other platforms don't seem to have this
problem. Linux and FreeBSD, for example, use GNU awk, which would have all
of the required functionality and more.

Can someone suggest what it is failing on in Solaris? Can you put #
before each line starting from the top until the error goes away so I
can know the cause. Comment out one line, try it, then remove the
comment and try the next line until it doesn't fail.

OK, my guess is that it is failing on these two lines:
gsub(\"\\\\(\[\^\\\\)\]*\\\\)\",\"\",cmd); # remove entries around parens, (), *BSD
gsub(\"\^\[\^:\]*:\",\"\",cmd); # remove command with colon, cmd:, Linux
Can you confirm that adding a # to the front of each lines prevents the
error. If so, can you find out from the manual pages if your awk
version supports gsub, and if it doesn't, can you send me a copy of the
manual page so I can find a work around. gsub in gawk says:
gsub(r, s [, t]) for each substring matching the regular expression r in
thestring t, substitute the string s, and return the
number of substitu- tions. If t is not supplied, use $0.
An& in the replacement text is replaced with the text that was
actually matched. Use \& to get a literal &. See AWK Language Pro-
gramming for a fuller discussion of the rules for &'s and back-
slashes in the replacement text of sub(), gsub(), and gensub().

OK, I have confirmed you are correct. I find at:
http://www.oase-shareware.org/shell/articles/awkcompat.html
a chart comparing awk versions on different OS's and it shows gsub() not
supported on Solaris, Solaris 2.5,2.6,5.7,5.8 (sparc), /usr/5bin/awk.
nawk does have it.
I have put a 0.28 version of pgmonitor on my web site that tests for
awk/nawk/gawk and gsub(), and uses the one that works. Can someone test
this on Solaris and let me know if it is OK?
pgmonitor README attached:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
P G M O N I T O R
pgmonitor, version 0.28
The main web site for pgmonitor is:http://greatbridge.org/project/pgmonitor/projdisplay.php
You can download the most recent version fromftp://ftp.greatbridge.org/pub/pgmonitor
This tool allows monitoring of PostgreSQL activity. It requires Tcl/Tk
8.0 or later. It may require modification of the 'ps' flags for certain
platforms. It is known to run on *BSD, Linux, and HPUX.
Pgmonitor only works when run on the database server machine. To use it
remotely, log into the remote machine, set the DISPLAY variable to point
to your local X server, and start pgmonitor. Pgmonitor will then run on
the remote machine, but will display on your local machine.
Pgmonitor uses 'ps' to display backend process activity. It uses 'gdb'
to display running queries, and 'kill' to cancel queries and terminate
database connections.
Pgmonitor stores your most recent refresh and sort settings in the file
~/.pgmonitor. This file is used to reload your defaults every time
pgmonitor is started.
If you are running PostgreSQL 7.1.0 or earlier, the 'query' button will
not work unless you compile PostgreSQL with debug symbols (-g), or apply
the supplied patch 'query_display.diff' and recompile PostgreSQL. The
later method is recommended.

OK, let's stay away from ucb ps because with no user restriction, the ps
command will take too long to be run repeatedly. Do you have gawk? Can
you edit the script and replace the mention of nawk with gawk:
if { ... nawk ...} { set awk "gawk" <--------------}
and let me know how it works.

OK, seems it is not only awk that is the problem. Can you start
removing the sort and cut sections. In fact, remove both of them and see
if you get any output. You can add:puts stdout $var
to print the value of $var in the TCL code. This may help you manually
find the cause.

I don't have gawk.

Ok +/-
On Solaris 2.5.1 - Pgmonitor 0.28
No message errors, the pgmonitor window comes up but does not show any
proccess. I started psql and make a query that runs a litle long (select
nm_arq from cd_arqs order by nm_arq), select refresh on pgmonitor and show
nothing.
Again, I changed the path to ps from /bin/ps to /usr/ucb/ps and it print
the following errors:
# ./pgmonitor
Error in startup script: Can't run 'ps'
Please send in a patch.
while executing
"error "Can't run 'ps'\nPlease send in a patch.""
(procedure "widget_init" line 62)
invoked from within
"widget_init $argc $argv .top"
(procedure "main" line 2)
invoked from within
"main $argc $argv"
(file "./pgmonitor" line 833)
#
From the man /usr/ucb/ps there is no argument to display proccess for a
expecific user U or u so I think can't be used.
From the man /bin/ps: -f long format,
-U user name list,
-u user ID list,
-e all proccess,
-p proc list
I changed same pgmonitor ps_???_args but I could not fix it. Still not
showing proccess.
Please see the atached man pages
Thank You
Roberto
The problem know, I think is the ps command

Sorry, do not work!
Get gawk 3.0.6, compile and test OK! From command line gawk OK! change set
awk "gawk" in all ifs to be sure it will use gawk - don't show! change
again to include path to gawk: set awk "/usr/gnu/bin/gawk" - don't show!
I know litle awk and tcl but, to me, it is ps not returning any postgres
proccess. Is there an away to see the ps result, like set an enviroment
variable (PS_RESULT1, PS_RESULT2, PS_RESULT2)
Sorry I can not setup an SSH account for you in this machine! It is an
internal server.

Yes, agreed, but I need easy to install stuff, and pgaccess already uses tcl/tk. I have the nawk/gsub thing fixed. I just need to find the other messed up part. -- Bruce Momjian | http://candle.pha.pa.us pgman@candle.pha.pa.us | (610) 853-3000+ If your life is a hard drive, | 830 Blythe Avenue + Christ can be your backup. | Drexel Hill, Pennsylvania19026
