Hello,
I'm using vserver (http://www.solucorp.qc.ca/miscprj/s_context.hc)
together with postgresql 7.2b5.
For those who aren't familiar with vserver, it is sort of a improved
chroot jail where port bindings and process signals are also restricted.
When starting postgresql in such a vserver, i get the following error :
(using strace on the postmaster)
----
getpid() = 6609
unlink("/var/ipfc/database//global/pgstat.stat") = -1 ENOENT (No such file
or directory)
socket(PF_INET, SOCK_DGRAM, IPPROTO_IP) = 5
bind(5, {sin_family=AF_INET, sin_port=htons(0),
sin_addr=inet_addr("127.0.0.1")}}, 16) = -1 EADDRNOTAVAIL (Cannot assign
requested address)
dup(2) = 6
fcntl64(0x6, 0x3, 0x6, 0) = 32770
fstat64(6, {st_mode=S_IFCHR|0620, st_rdev=makedev(136, 2), ...}) = 0
mmap2(NULL, 4096, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1, 0)
= 0x40018000
_llseek(6, 0, 0xbfffeca0, SEEK_CUR) = -1 ESPIPE (Illegal seek)
write(6, "PGSTAT: bind(2): Cannot assign r"..., 49PGSTAT: bind(2): Cannot
assign requested address
) = 49
close(6) = 0
----
so the bind on address 127.0.0.1 (for the statistics process) is not
allowed (which is correct). How can I change this value ? (If no other
possibility is available, I'm going to change the source)
Best regards,
