Has anyone else got aix 4.3.3 and postgresql 7.0.3 working with respect to dynamically loaded functions? I'm having all sorts of wierd problems. For starters, I ended up ripping out the old and outdated dlXXX() implimentation in backend/port/dynloader/aix.c and have it calling the OS supplied dlXXX() functions now. This got me _mostly_ working. With this change, I can now run the regression tests, but only using an installed postmaster. The parallel version locks up when it tries to use these functions. I believe that what is happening is that the .so files are importing symbols from /local/pg/bin/postgres, which isn't the currently running executably and this is causing problems with correct symbol resolution. When running runcheck, I get this log entry: FATAL 1: check_primary_key: triggers are not initialized Shortly after that, the postmaster gets hung up on an IPC semaphore during a vacuum operation, which I suspect because one of the previous tests died in a very bad way and left the IPC facilities in a bad state. I'm curious if anyone else has experience any problems in this area? As a side note, is there some reason that the AIX port hasn't migrated to using the runtime linking facilities in aix 4.3.X? This would make the AIX port much more foolproof in this area and mostly eliminate the need for .imp files. Dave [EMAIL PROTECTED] Home Page: http://www.cs.ndsu.nodak.edu/~davlarso/
