Well, I've re-compiled PostgreSQL 7.4.1 with --enable-debug
(was previously working with a Gentoo ebuild of it).
And strangely I get a different error now:
ERROR: query-specified return row and actual function return row do not
match
After placing a few elog statements around pgresultGetTupleDesc, i've
found the
error happens after this function.
I've been trying to use gdb to trace the problem, but I can't work out
how to attach
gdb to a backend process. (I've never tried to debug a multi process before)
Are there any docs on debugging the backend processes?
I've searched www.postgresql.org without luck :(
