Thread: solution for psql segmentation fault ??
greetings postgres gurus: i've scoured the mail list logs and found many requests for assistance with this problem: ``i just built the new pgsql release and now psql quits with a segmentation fault every time i run it'' but can not find any answer - maybe all these people worked it out on their own or abandoned postgres. does anyone have a hint? i'm guessing its something to do with versions of readline/glibc but don't have a clue what to try upgrading/downgrading or patching to make everything work in harmony. everything builds without complaint and the postmaster appears to be running just fine - psql just segfaults. does anyone have a solution to build psql that worked for them? i'm building postgres ~6.5 from cvs on intel/pentium redhat linux boxes with glibc 2.x (libc6) readline 2.2.1 and linux kernel 2.2.10+ using pgcc (egcs 1.1.2). profuse thanks to anyone who may have a moment to suggest some help and Cc: directly to my email address. can't wait to try out the 6.5.x postgres features! -- mailto:sean@savvysearch.com sean dreilinger, mlishttp://www.savvysearch.com http://durak.org/sean
