What is the simplest way of doing this? I read the instructions on this page http://sites.google.com/a/cs.berkeley.edu/cs186-fa09/home/assignments/assignment2/pggdb , but this is what I get. gdb) attach 1731 Attaching to program: /usr/local/pgsql/bin/postgres, process 1731 ptrace: Operation not permitted.
