[HACKERS] libxml related crash on git head
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: RIPEMD160
I'm getting HEAD errors on my build farm animal fennec.
I've narrowed it down to this test case:
greg=# CREATE TEMP TABLE boom AS SELECT 'ABC'::bytea;
greg=# SELECT table_to_xml('boom',false,false,'');
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: Failed.
Specifically, it's only the bytea data type, with that function. The
boolean arguments do not make a difference. I cannot reproduce this on
other boxes, so I suspect it may be a libxml bug. This server is running
libxml2 version 2.7.2: we require = 2.6.23. I've tried manually installing
a newer version of libxml, but make fails with:
ld: crtbeginS.o: No such file: No such file or directory
libtool: install: error: relink `libxml2mod.la' with the
above command before installing it
I don't have time/inclination to track down why the make is failing, but
may have some time to run any Postgres-specific tests, if anyone wishes
me to.

Greg Sabino Mullane g...@turnstep.com writes: I'm getting HEAD errors on my build farm animal fennec. Oh, I looked at that the other day. The animal started failing after you installed a new libxml in /usr/local. It looks like it is compiling against the /usr/local copy but still executing against the .so in /usr/lib64. Linuxen are not terribly friendly to ad-hoc library installs --- in particular, if you don't tell ldconfig to look in /usr/local, it's never gonna work. I don't have time/inclination to track down why the make is failing, I'd suggest just dropping the non-default libxml installation, then. BTW, right at the moment you seem to have git issues, too. regards, tom lane -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers

The animal started failing after you installed a new libxml in /usr/local. Ah, okay, that makes sense. So MediaWiki wanted a new version but libxml was being *really* problematic so I abandoned the install, but I guess it left some pieces around. I will see if I can clean it up. BTW, right at the moment you seem to have git issues, too. Thanks, I will check on that. - -- Greg Sabino Mullane g...@turnstep.com PGP Key: 0x14964AC8 201204021608 http://biglumber.com/x/web?pk=2529DF6AB8F79407E94445B4BC9B906714964AC8 -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- iEYEAREDAAYFAk96B2IACgkQvJuQZxSWSsg9RQCg0DaEGVldBl6eI7ajZ+4DMcWx wtAAoO9h/9+isE/X/Y+T7xwcgCb1ZCxL =JAZN -END PGP SIGNATURE- -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
