The following sequence of commands causes server crash.
postgres=# BEGIN TRANSACTION READ WRITE ;
BEGIN
postgres=# SELECT * FROM pg_class FOR UPDATE;
FATAL: cannot assign TransactionIds during recovery
STATEMENT: SELECT * FROM pg_class FOR UPDATE;
FATAL: cannot assign TransactionIds during recovery
server closed the connection unexpectedly
This probably means the server terminated abnormally
before or while processing the request.
The connection to the server was lost. Attempting reset: Succeeded.
I think we should disallow starting a read-write transaction during
recovery. The patch attempts to do that by setting transaction mode to
read-only, but not enough to prevent somebody to explicitly mark the
transaction as read-write.
Thanks,
