Yes, but you never found out why it happened in the first place. I strongly suspect your install is busted, probably due to an incomplete install over an older version. You haven't given enough information to be sure of that, but you clearly have an old version kicking around somewhere that's interfering with your new one, and the most common reason is installing on the same prefix (incompletely, or without cleaning the old install out first). Try installing your new version to a new, clean prefix and see if you still have problems. > When I try to connect to the DB and perform insert/update/delete/select operations from the command line all seems to be working fine, but when I try to use my application to connect to the DB I get the following message in the log file and the connection aborts. > > LOG: getsockname() failed: Invalid argument > LOG: incomplete startup packet Is your app using the same version of libpq as `psql' ? Use whatever linker trace tool exists on HPUX (or search for "ldd hpux" which will probably tell you). Are you connecting with the same host argument in both cases? In particular, might you be connecting over a unix socket (the default) with `psql', and tcp/ip with your application? That might be a clue. Does the system have IPv6 enabled? -- Craig Ringer -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
