Hi Tom,
Bad system call (core dumped)
Have you tried running the initdb with strace or truss? That might give
you a clue as to exactly what system call is failing. Your jail isn't
allowing something fundamental here, but it's hard to guess what.
Or even easier, gdb the core file ...
As written early i can't locate the core file. But now i use truss:
$ truss -o /tmp/pg.truss /usr/local/bin/initdb /usr/local/pgsql/
Here is the result:
http://www.dddbl.de/pg.truss.txt
The first suspicious i can see are a lots of "ERR#32 'Broken pipe'" entries.
I also changed some ipc-values from:
kern.ipc.semmni=512
kern.ipc.semmns=1024
kern.ipc.semmnu=512
to:
kern.ipc.semmnu: 4096
kern.ipc.semmns: 8192
kern.ipc.semmni: 32767
But these are read-only values. I have to reboot the machine. But it's a
live-machine and it will take some time to prepare rebooting. -.-
Greetings from Germany,
Torsten
