Re: [SQL] Vacuum problem in my system ?

Well, the problem here might be in the fact that root usually has its ulimit -c (the maximum size of core files created) set to 0. This effectively disables core dumping. You can check this by issuing ulimit -c as root. Setting it to a reasonably large size via ulimit -c 100 just before the vacuumdb command should resolve it. Running postmaster as root is a dangerous idea from a security point of view, but it's well documented so you probably know what you are doing ;-) Orbis -- Rostislav Opocensky <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> +420 411 825144 Unreal Technology sro., Dobrin 118, 41301 Roudnice n.

We are evaluating a ten-page proposal for a new book on Postgres and are looking for a few people to advise us on its viability. If interested, please email me at [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a brief description of your credentials and a statement that you agree to non-disclosure of it and I will send you more information.
Re: [SQL] New book on Postgres
Hello! wers regarding a book proposal on Regarding the book proposal on Postgres: I can tell you that the world needs a Postgres book! Specifically, I would like to see the following topics covered: - table-inheritance: what does it mean, how does it work, examples - regular expressions in queries: examples - PL/pgSQL: thorough coverage and examples - pg_options file: complete explanation of all options, and detailed coverage of performance-tuning and troubleshooting - creating and adding new types/operators/etc. The most important things to remember are: 1) We do not need another SQL book, we need a PostgreSQL book 2) examples, examples, examples Thanks!
