Re: Postgress on my N900

Thanks valeri, I actually think I saw a post somewhere which stated that some guy had his webserver and postgres running on a pentium 2 with 512 of RAM total, so I think I should be able to run it well.

In fact the server starts perfectly and very quickly, and also I have ran the initdb and all perfectly fine.

The only thing I don't see is it actually listening on the port

but there is no error so it might be listening on some other port.

Wow!

This is a heavy weight one. I wouldn't dare to run it on pocked device...
But maybe I'm wrong.

My wild guess would be: you don't have enough RAM even to start it. To
check how much RAM it requires just to load into memory itself and its
arguments (and reserve space for data residing in RAM) you can run unix
command

size

(or its equivalent on maemo) on the binary. E.g., this is what I get for
postgresql on one of my servers:

size /usr/bin/postgres

  text    data     bss     dec     hex filename
2974897   45216  415136 3435249  346af1 /usr/bin/postgres

which says that you need 3.44 MB just to start it successfully. You may
have to multiply that by the number of postgres processes (which I'm sure
is configurable) that you allowed to be started.

Let us know what you find out.

Good luck!
