I'm trying to port some replication code from 7.2 - 7.4 and am running
into a block.
In the file:
/src/backend/tcop/postgres.c
My diff was for:
void
pg_exec_query(char *query_string)
{
pg_exec_query_string(query_string, whereToSendOutput,
QueryContext);
}
But the
'k, I just tag'd REL7_4 and built the bundles ... the files are available
under ftp://ftp.postgresql.org/pub/source/v7.4beta, and I've open'd up the
ftp server there to 100 connections so that ppl can get in and test it ...
ftp3.us.postgresql.org is in sync as well if anyone is interested.
No luck on general, so I'll try here:
I'm trying to figure out what version of a source code I have. I know
it's a 7.2 release, but how can I find out of it's 7.2, 7.2.3, 7.2.4,
etc. FROM THE SOURCE CODE, not from compiling (it doesn't compile, it's
testing code).
Thanks

D'Arcy,
In production the database servers are seperate multi-processor machines
with mirrored disks linked via Gigabit ethernet to the app server.
In development I have people extremely familiar with MS, but not very hot
with Unix in any flavour, who are developing Java and PHP code
We'll need a good beta period this time, because of:

You can find a snapshot that should be pretty durn close to 7.2beta1
at ftp://ftp2.us.postgresql.org/pub/dev/postgresql-snapshot.tar.gz

the doc/TODO file doesn't contain a date in October, it's stale).

The developer's corner will soon be going away. I'm in the process of

beta announcements will be there, regression database will be there,

far. If anyone has any good docs (on replication not relating to
postgresq too), please send me the links.

This behavior raises the question about file system usage in Postgres. Many
databases, such as Oracle, create table space files and operate directly on the
raw blocks, bypassing the file system altogether.
OK, we have considered this, but frankly, the new, modern file systems

Does anyone have any outstanding fixes for v7.1.x that they want to see in

or is the changelist enough?

OBSD checks out for sparc and i386. We did need to make a change to the
resultmap file to make the regression tests clean for the sparc. I have
attached the diff.
Also, on the sparc that i'm using (sparc4/110), make check takes 1950

Though it does work, like FBSD, there are some changes that need to be
made to the system. Need max proc / files changes and a kernel recompile
with SEMMNI and SEMMNS changes.

I object. The code displays oids and tablenames or relnames. Oid is just
the initial, default filename for tables, and may change to something other
than the oid. Currently, the reindex code is the only place that could change
the relfilenode without changing the oid, but I think there may be

When I run 'make check' on the CVS version (today and for the last

fail. Example:

In the postmaster: the fork() to launch a backend is failing. There
should be a more detailed message in the postmaster's stderr log,
but almost certainly it's a resource-exhaustion issue. Does your

example?
Looks like that
the problem is solved. Should me make note of

vacuum on it, which brought a question to mind: why the need? I looked
at my oracle server and we aren't doing anything of the sort (that I can
