Re: QNX : POSSIBLE BUG IN CONFIGURE ?

Hi all

As I posted few days ago I started checking postgresql 7.1RC1 in QNX 4.25. The last I checked was 7.1b3.

the problem is :

when I execute configure it recognize the executable suffix as .map and this is not right. And the test program fails.
If I try the same in 7.1b3 all works good.

Then I tried to modify configure :
line 1472
*.c | *.o | *.obj | *.map) ;; // I added *.map

With this all works. I can compile but when I run initdb it crashes. this is the output file

Running with debug mode on.

I don't know how configure works but from 7.1b3 to 7.1RC1 something was changed in it and I think this is the problem in QNX.

I also checked my coimpiler but I can compile all but the last postgresql version.

Could You help me ?

Thanks.

This is a known (to me) bug in Autoconf. Maybe there's a way to prevent
the .map files to be generated? Fixing this isn't too hard, but I don't
feel urgent about it when there are more problems with the QNX port still
down the line.

OK,
I compiled postgresql RC2. I have not error nor warnings so I hope it's all
right.
I also changed something in os.h --> port/qnx4.h
and in s_lock.c

I will post the changes until the end of the week.

I executed initdb and all works fine.
I executed postmaster and the proces run OK.

When I run psql template0 I have an error. I am not expert walking throu
postgresql sources.
could You tell me if there some change from beta 6 to RC1 or RC2 that can
give this problem in QNX so I can try to check all?

Attached is the server.log file with the SIGSEGV.

Thanks
