Package: postgresql-7.4
Version: 1:7.4.8-17
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable
The init script cannot start postgresql-7.4 (/etc/init.d/postgresql-7.4 start).
If I attempt to start it by hand with:
sudo -u postgres /usr/lib/postgresql/7.4/bin/pg_ctl start -w -D
/var/lib/postgresql/7.4/main/ -l /var/log/postgresql/postgresql-7.4-main.log
I get:
waiting for postmaster to start..../usr/lib/postgresql/7.4/bin/pg_ctl: line
417: 31939 Bus error "$po_path" ${1+"$@"}
${PGDATAOPTS+$PGDATAOPTS} </dev/null >>$logfile 2>&1
.............
This suggests that the postmaster process is getting a SIGBUS.
I was successfully running postgresql before the shift to the new layout,
so this is a recent regression on mips. If I have to upgrade postgresql
to recover, I'd like advice on how to get my data out of the database
and into the new version, although I can cope with having to restore
from backup and reenter anything that's been changed since.
