Package: postgresql-8.1 Version: 8.1.2-2 Severity: important Debian Postgresql 8.1 (8.1.2) doesn't handle customized options in postgresql.conf and exits with an error. The problem is related only to debian package; Postgres 8.1.2 compiled from postgresql.org source distribution starts correctly.
Example: modify /etc/postgresql/8.1/main/postgresql.conf custom_variable_classes = 'pljava' pljava.classpath = '/usr/local/pljava/pljava.jar' or custom_variable_classes = 'foo' foo.value = 'foo' ends with an error when starting Postgres: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/etc/postgresql/8.1/main# /etc/init.d/postgresql-8.1 start * Starting PostgreSQL 8.1 database server: main *ror: Invalid line 431 in /etc/postgresql/8.1/main/postgresql.conf [fail] Hope this report helps. -- System Information: Debian Release: 3.1 Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.13.4-prometeo Locale: [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED] (charmap=ISO-8859-15) (ignored: LC_ALL set to [EMAIL PROTECTED]) Versions of packages postgresql-8.1 depends on: ii libc6 2.3.2.ds1-22 GNU C Library: Shared libraries an ii libcomerr2 1.37-2sarge1 common error description library ii libkrb53 1.3.6-2sarge2 MIT Kerberos runtime libraries ii libpam0g 0.76-22 Pluggable Authentication Modules l ii libpq4 8.1.2-2 PostgreSQL C client library ii libreadline5 5.0-10 GNU readline and history libraries ii libssl0.9.7 0.9.7e-3sarge1 SSL shared libraries ii postgresql-client-8.1 8.1.2-2 front-end programs for PostgreSQL ii postgresql-common 42 manager for PostgreSQL database cl ii zlib1g 1:1.2.2-4.sarge.2 compression library - runtime -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
