Are there any plan to  backport this patch for 8.1/8.0 server ? 

My customer has same problem in 8.1.5 , but this bug doesn't seems to
be fixed in 8.1.6 . 

Backport patch for 8.1.6 attached. 

Sorry for replying old mail.

It was considered too risky to backpatch because we couldn't do
sufficient testing.

[BUGS] BUG #2876: problems witih pg_ctl -w

2007-01-10 Thread Marvin Solomon

The following bug has been logged online:

Bug reference:  2876
Logged by:  Marvin Solomon
Email address:  [EMAIL PROTECTED]
PostgreSQL version: 8.2.1
Operating system:   Windows XP
Description:problems witih pg_ctl -w
Details: 

The "-w" option to pg_ctl on Windows systems has a 
couple of problems.

The main problem is that it attempts to detect 
whether the server is running by establishing a
session, but provides no way to supply a user name
for that attempt.  The default is to use your
login name, but that may not correspond to any
user name in the database.  Here's an example:

% pg_ctl start -w -l log
waiting for server to start...^C
% cat foo
LOG:  database system was shut down at 2007-01-10 05:56:57 CST
LOG:  checkpoint record is at 0/34ACBE0
LOG:  redo record is at 0/34ACBE0; undo record is at 0/0; shutdown TRUE
LOG:  next transaction ID: 0/686; next OID: 16572
LOG:  next MultiXactId: 1; next MultiXactOffset: 0
LOG:  database system is ready
FATAL:  role "solomon" does not exist
FATAL:  role "solomon" does not exist
FATAL:  role "solomon" does not exist 
FATAL:  role "solomon" does not exist 
LOG:  received fast shutdown request
LOG:  shutting down
LOG:  database system is shut down

I note that the code explicity checks for the
error "no password supplied", but not for "role
does not exist".

Another problem is that the max time to wait is 
wired in at 60 seconds.  It would be nice if there
were some way to supply a different value.

[BUGS] follow-up: problems with pg_ctl -w

2007-01-10 Thread Marvin Solomon


[This is meant to be a follow-up of a bug report I sent earlier using the web
form.  It's not clear to me the right way to post a follow-up, since I didn't
get a copy of the email generated by the web form, and the email hasn't shown
up on the pgsql-bugs web site -- at least not yet.]

I subsequently discovered that setting PGUSER in the environment gets around
the first problem I mentioned, so it's really just a documentation problem:
PGUSER is not mentioned on the pg_ctl doc page.

But I found a worse problem.  Sometimes (not repeatably), pg_ctl start -w
logs the message

FATAL:  the database is starting up

and immediately returns.  I believe the correct thing for it to do when it
gets this message from an attempt to open a session is to try again.  Instead,
it returns as if the startup was successful.

What is the problem? I have run the binary on XP 64 without problems,
though not from the MSI installer. It certainly *works*.


> Any plans for a 64-bit version?

There are no firm plans for a Win64 version, but we'll get there
eventually ;-) We are doing some of the work needed to get there, such
as updating the build system for Visual C++ 2005, on the way to 8.3, but
it's impossible to say when we'll have an actual 64-bit version.

you might want to try to upgrade the JDBC driver - if i read
http://jdbc.postgresql.org/download.html correctly pg74.216.jdbc3 is not
the version that should be used against a 8.1 backend.

Use something newer than PG 7.4, or if you must, hack up
src/include/port/darwin.h to know about darwin-on-intel.

Again, what exactly does it show you? I doubt this is because of 64-bit
windows, but it's not impossible thatis.

When you say you created a postgres admin account, I assume you mean a
*non*-admin account? Postgres is supposed to have a non-admin account to
run from.
