The following bug has been logged online: Bug reference: 1959 Logged by: David Wheeler Email address: [EMAIL PROTECTED] PostgreSQL version: 8.1b3 Operating system: Mac OS X 10.4 "Tiger" Description: readline error exiting psql Details:
At least it doesn't segfault anymore, but when exiting psql with 8.1b3 on Mac OS X 10.4 "Tiger" with Apple's wacko readline library, I get the following error: could not save history to file "/Users/david/.psql_history": Invalid argument Hrm. No, I just went in and ran a query, then quit, and then it said: psql(14102) malloc: *** error for object 0x1807000: incorrect checksum for freed object - object was probably modified after being freed, break at szone_error to debug psql(14102) malloc: *** set a breakpoint in szone_error to debug zsh: segmentation fault /usr/local/pgsql/bin/psql -U postgres -d sharky Bummer. The weird thing is that the query I ran does show up in the history if I go into psql again. Very odd. ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 2: Don't 'kill -9' the postmaster
