[HACKERS] GDB X Postgresql 8 - Failed to read a valid object file image from memory

2008-05-01 Thread Ana Carolina Brito de Almeida
Hi!

I tried to use GDB with postgresql 8 and I didnt have success.
Can you help me?
I tried like as I did in postgresql 7.4
I run configure like this: ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/pgsql8
--enable-debug --enable-cassert --enable-depend
After, I run make, make install, initdb
After this, I tried run gdb, but I dont enter in backend.

This GDB was configured as i686-pc-linux-gnu...
(gdb) run
Starting program: /usr/local/pgsql8/bin/postgres
Failed to read a valid object file image from memory.
LOG:  database system was shut down at 2008-05-01 22:56:41 BRT
LOG:  database system is ready to accept connections
LOG:  autovacuum launcher started

So, I think that have something wrong (Failed to read a valid object file
image from memory).
Can you help me?
I tried run psql and attached process pid too, but no success. :-(

Thanks,
Ana Carolina

You didn't per chance stumble upon this:

Happens on Linux 2.6.20-ish.
