If so, isn't it just the output of stderr getting lost here? What shell are you using?

Yes, it looks like stderr is lost. I'm running bash, and there is nothing odd in .bash_profile

Any ideas?


I have to admit I'm running out, this seems to be a rather odd problem. Maybe someone who knows CentOS (or Linux in general) has some ideas what's going on here.
Let's see if we can find any trace of where things are going wrong...

Is there anything about why the regression tests failed in the system logs?

No, nothing.

Were you redirecting the script output somewhere?

No, I was running make check, which does redirect the output to a series of files, and then diffs those against the expected output.

Does your stderr work? If you purposely cause an error, do you get an error message? Can you write it to a file?

[postgres@zu ~]$ less bangu
bangu: No such file or directory
[postgres@zu ~]$ less bangu 2>zztmp
[postgres@zu ~]$ cat zztmp
bangu: No such file or directory
[postgres@zu ~]$

but

[postgres@zu ~]$ /usr/local/pgsql/bin/psql -U nobody
psql: [postgres@zu ~]$

[That is, the expected error from psql about the nonexistent user is swallowed.]

What are you running your shell from, the console or some kind of X- or otherwise virtual console (screen for example)? If the latter, can you try the regression tests from the console?

Normally I run from an ssh session, but I tried this from the console as well, with the same results.


If that still doesn't show anything it's probably a good idea to run the regression tests through trace, but that's probably going to create a LOT of output to wade through. It should point you to the culprit though.

I'm going to try this over the weekend and see what I get.
