Hello, I am developing an php application and by mistake a wrong timezone was set after I initialized the connection, which resulted in a core dump of the current process. The postgres version is 8.0.3 running on a freebsd 6.0-RELEASE machine with the generic kernel. I tried searching for similar problems but I could not find similar reports.
from /var/log/messages: Jan 10 17:14:40 dndwebdev01 postgres[17374]: [1-1] ERROR: unrecognized time zone name: "America/Indiana" Jan 10 17:14:40 dndwebdev01 kernel: pid 17374 (postgres), uid 70: exited on signal 11 (core dumped) Jan 10 17:14:40 dndwebdev01 postgres[17372]: [1-1] WARNING: terminating connection because of crash of another server process Jan 10 17:14:40 dndwebdev01 postgres[17372]: [1-2] DETAIL: The postmaster has commanded this server process to roll back the current transaction and exit, because another server Jan 10 17:14:40 dndwebdev01 postgres[17372]: [1-3] process exited abnormally and possibly corrupted shared memory.
