The following bug has been logged online: Bug reference: 4883 Logged by: Alfred Monticello Email address: ajmcell...@gmail.com PostgreSQL version: All Operating system: Linux Description: tar xf fails on NFS4 mounts Details:
in doc/Makefile, tar is run to extract an archive with xf options. Needs oxf to map to owner of person running tar, otherwise Invalid Argument occurs and the Makefile errors out. A better solution might be to compact postgres as UID/GID 0 instead of UID 258 which does not exist on my system. Problem only occurs when mounting NFSv4 from a Solaris box using ZFS. Client is Ubuntu Jaunty. Tar tries to preserve UID 258 but errors out because it doesn't exist. -- Sent via pgsql-bugs mailing list (pgsql-bugs@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-bugs
