Yeah... this is an mmap()/malloc() "problem"... > As far as I could read from that message, you had the > problems on x86/Solaris9 > , while I'm trying to get the things done on Sparc/Solaris9. > But the log from > 'knldiag' looks exactly the same like yours.

It seems that from some version in 7.5 on (and 7.6) SAPDB uses a more efficient way to switch contexts via makecontext(), in earlier version this was done using assembler. I have no full understanding what's happening there exactly but using those contexts with mmap() doesn'T seem to work (or the coding is not Solaris-ready). > Did you managed meanwhile to solve the mentioned problems?

If the buildtools are not 64bit-ready they won't even compile the correct version of a database. Try to clean your TOOLSRC and start from scratch with: # CC=cc CXX=CC CFLAGS="-xarch=v9" CXXFLAG="-xarch=v9" ./configure .... So the compiler will hopefully not ommit the buildflags. I think the 32bit Solaris builds are outdated and won'T work any more, at least with Version >= 7.5. Greetz, SIEGENIA-AUBI KG Informationswesen i.A.
