John Nealy ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) reports a bug with a severity of 2
The lower the number the more severe it is.
Short Description
7.2.1 createdb test gives segmentation fault
Long Description
When installing PG 7.2.1 from source on S/390 Linux using the
--enable-multibyte option I cannot create databases and psql does not work at all.
Everything is fine using plain ./configure. I wanted to use the multibyte because I
need to compile a PHP 4.x Apache module to interface with PgSQL. Without it I get
Undefined symbol... pg_encoding_to_char then starting Apache. Anyway, below is some
relevant output:
first do initdb:
[postgres@linux1 postgres]$/usr/local/pgsql/bin/initdb -D /usr/local/pgsql/data
The files belonging to this database system will be owned by user "postgres".
This user must also own the server process.
Fixing permissions on existing directory /usr/local/pgsql/data... ok

Success. You can now start the database server using:
/usr/local/pgsql/bin/postmaster -D /usr/local/pgsql/data
or
/usr/local/pgsql/bin/pg_ctl -D /usr/local/pgsql/data -l logfile start
[postgres@linux1 postgres]$ /usr/local/pgsql/bin/pg_ctl -D /usr/local/pgsql/data -l
logfile start
postmaster successfully started
[postgres@linux1 postgres]$ /usr/local/pgsql/bin/createdb test

logfile has

from command line:

Should I just try a previous version on Pg (or PHP)? Any help is greatly appreciated.
