Hi, 2)Getting "Aborted (core dumped)" error at the time of running pg_basebackup , *(this issue is only coming on Linux32 ,not on Linux64)* we have double check to confirm it .
Steps to reproduce on Linux32 > =================== >> fetch the sources >> apply both the patches >> ./configure --with-zlib --enable-debug --enable-cassert >> --enable-depend --prefix=$PWD/edbpsql --with-openssl CFLAGS="-g -O0"; make >> all install >> Performed initdb with switch "--wal-segsize 4" >> > > Does the crash occur with only size 4? > Crash occurs for the value of *"--wal-segsize " 1, 2, 4, 8* with stack details as below : [bin]$ ./pg_basebackup -v -D /tmp/slave8 *** glibc detected *** ./pg_basebackup: free(): invalid pointer: 0x09fe9f00 *** ======= Backtrace: =========
