Line 335 of fd.c is return posix_fadvise(fd, offset, amount, POSIX_FADV_DONTNEED); which means you've got one of those nasty Linux versions that claims to have posix_fadvise but it dumps core when executed. As a workaround you can comment out "#define USE_POSIX_FADVISE" in src/include/pg_config_manual.h before building. What kernel and glibc versions are you running, exactly? regards, tom lane -- Sent via pgsql-admin mailing list (pgsql-admin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-admin
