Thread: Regression
I installed PG 7.1.2 from rpms on RH 7.0 Regression fails 8 of 76 tests: char, varchar, int8, numeric, abstime, select_implicit, select_having, select_views. Looking at regression.diffs (attached) my first guess is that I'm missing a setup/locale? Please help. Thanks in advance, Mihai Gheorghiu

Yes, the regression tests expect to run in the C locale. -- Peter Eisentraut peter_e@gmx.net http://funkturm.homeip.net/~peter
Sorry, the only place I found something about the locale is Admin's Manual, 5.1 I must admit I cannot figure out how this works. Is there another document where this is presented in more detail? E.g.: en_US is mentioned more than once in the manuals. I went to /usr/share/locale and there are tens of them, but no en_US or us.

Try 'man 7 locale' or thereabouts for more information. -- Peter Eisentraut peter_e@gmx.net http://funkturm.homeip.net/~peter
