Hi all, I am running DBT2 benchmarks on a 4 way Win 2003 server when the postgres server process crashes. Then I tried on a 1 GB P4 desktop running XP and could reproduce the problem quite often. The error message is at the end of this mail. I did the following to dig more into the problem: * The server crashes with default postgresql.conf parameters * I tried to get more log info by turned few log params in postgresql.conf file and ran it for only 1 connection. To my surprise there was no crash and the entire DBT2 ran successfully. * Then I started making the log params one by one default so that I can zero on the log param which is making it pass. I see turning log_min_error_statement to a debug level is not causing server crash for 1 connection. * Then I tried to increase the no. of connections to 20 and see that it crashes always. I had run the DBT2 tests on the same box on SLES 9.0 without any problems. Hence I suspect this is a win32 port problem. It seems the server is crashing on a wait. Anyone else faced this problem/any reasons for this failure ?
