I've run regression tests many, many times recently, usually in the form of a looping installcheck, rather than just make check.
On a recent test the last command of the last test has failed: DROP TABLESPACE testspace; ERROR: tablespace "testspace" is not empty The directory was confirmed as non-empty, though when running the command again it worked successfully. However, I've run it many times and it hasn't happened at all, so it's sporadic and fairly rare. When I isolate just that test case in a tight loop, I've seen no problems. Now I'm not sure what causes that and although I am working on patches I don't think I'm causing it myself. This error happens on the *master*, not on the standby server. Is there a timing problem? I see that we attempt to do a checkpoint to clean up deleted files. Is that working? Is it ignoring certain messages? -- Simon Riggs www.2ndQuadrant.com PostgreSQL Training, Services and Support -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
