Thread: postgres 7.2 on HPUX 10.20, regression test errors.

Hi,

I am planning to upgrade a 7.1.3 installation to 7.2 on an old HP-box. When
running the regression test, some strange errors occurs, I get everyting
fine until:

*** 1007,1053 ****
--- 1007,1095 ----
  -- Second we install the wall connectors
  --
  insert into WSlot values ('WS.001.1a', '001', '', '');
+ ERROR:  record new has no field backlink
  insert into WSlot values ('WS.001.1b', '001', '', '');
+ ERROR:  record new has no field backlink

and so on for lots of the following inserts, seems that the schema for the
database does not agree with what the queries belives, which seems a bit too
strange to me. I recall having seen something about an upgraded
regressiontest for 7.2, but I could not find anything on the web site. Does
anybody have any ideas on what is going on here?

Morten

I use HPUX 10.20 every day, and I can assure you 7.2 passes its
regression tests for me.  Perhaps something strange about your
installation?  What compiler are you using, what configure options,
etc?

This failure mode seems vaguely familiar to me, but I cannot recall why.
Anyone else seen plpgsql regress test fail this way?
