Hi, I was trying pg_basebackup on head, i used this command: """ postgres@jaime:/usr/local/pgsql/9.2$ bin/pg_basebackup -D $PWD/data2 -x stream -P -p 54392 """
i got this error """ 19093/19093 kB (100%), 1/1 tablespace pg_basebackup: streaming header too small: 17 pg_basebackup: child process exited with error 1 """ now, this streaming header size is defined in src/bin/pg_basebackup/receivelog.c as "#define STREAMING_HEADER_SIZE (1+8+8+8)", so WTF is this? what are these numbers? shouldn't be at least a comment explaining those? more important it's seems obvious something broke that, unless i misunderstood something which is completely possible, and that the way is do it it will broke again in the future if the header change -- Jaime Casanova www.2ndQuadrant.com Professional PostgreSQL: Soporte 24x7 y capacitación -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
