hi all,

i've working built-from-source v813 installs on OSX 10.4.6.

staring with a clean 814 src tree, a similarly-config'd build completes
without error:
% postmaster --version   postmaster (PostgreSQL) 8.1.4

but, on executable launch, if fails w/ @ postgresql.log:
 LOG:  00000: could not read symbolic link "postmaster" LOCATION:  resolve_symlinks, exec.c:338 FATAL:  XX000:
/usr/local/pgsql/bin/postmaster:could not locate my
 
own executable path LOCATION:  PostmasterMain, postmaster.c:435

known? suggestion?

cheers,

richard

Nope, and we do have OS X machines in the buildfarm, so I think we'd
have noticed if there were a generic problem.  I don't recall any recent
changes in that area of the code, either.  Have you built PG
successfully before on this same machine?  If so, what was the last
version that worked for you?  Is there anything out of the ordinary
about the filesystem or directory path you installed PG on?
        regards, tom lane

repeatedly.  on this machine, and a variety of others similarly
configured ...

v8.1.3 on all boxes.  i can currently successfully (re)build 813 on this
box now, with no such problems ...

'out of the ordinary' ... well, not from my perspective, or from that,
apparently, of v813.

cheers,

richard

Curious.  I just rebuilt/tested CVS HEAD successfully on my own 10.4.6
laptop ... I'll try REL8_1_STABLE next, but I'll be *really* surprised
if it fails.  There's got to be something odd about your configuration.
Look at PATH and so forth.  Look at the postmaster -> postgres symlink;
is it where it's supposed to be?
        regards, tom lane

Well it looks like the symlink to /usr/local/pgsql/bin/postmaster is broken.

yup.

I just rebuilt/tested CVS HEAD successfully on my own 10.4.6
> laptop ... 

good to know ...

checking 'by the numbers' ...

the problem exists on four different boxes

admittedly, they're all similarly configured ...

fwiw, v813 is OK on all boxes.

seems to be:

/usr/local/pgsql/bin  > ls -al postmasterlrwxrwx--- 1 root wheel 8 2006-05-24 07:48 postmaster -> postgres


i'll let you know if i find anything; please do the same ...

Hm, is it significant that that symlink is set for no access by world?
I don't remember if Darwin enforces access bits on symlinks, but check
to see if your 8.1.3 installation has identical privileges for the
symlink.

How did that happen. I was always under the impression that permission
bits on symbolic links were ignored, and chmod on my machine (linux)
won't let me change them anyway, it changes the bits on the underlying
file. Is OSX different here?

Have a nice day,
