I ran into this problem when running almost any command using psql, createdb or even trying to goto the shell using \!
The problem is that /bin/sh points to /bin/bash and my bash version is:
$ bash -version
GNU bash, version 1.14.7(1)
Here are the other errors:
$ createdb foo
PQexec() -- Request was sent to backend, but backend closed the channel before responding.
This probably means the backend terminated abnormally before or while processing the request.
createdb: database creation failed on foo.
(in the log file it has the “sh: `-c' requires an argument” error)
Has anyone run into this problem? Or could give me tips to fix it?
Thanks
Girish
