Ever since I started using pgAdmin (in 2006 or so) it has always crashed about once an hour of active usage. I finally decided to report this.
Here's one way to reproduce the problem with the latest pgAdmin (1.16.1): - connect to a database, go to the public schema - right-click "Tables", choose "New Table" - use the GUI to create a table called "foo" with a single column called "bar", of type integer (ignore the no primary keys warning) - just to double-check, clicking "foo" in the tree now shows the create table statement which looks something like this: -- Table: foo -- DROP TABLE foo; CREATE TABLE foo ( bar integer ) WITH ( OIDS=FALSE ); ALTER TABLE foo OWNER TO postgres; - right-click "foo" in the tree, choose "Scripts -> CREATE Script" - in the query window, uncomment "DROP TABLE foo;", change integer to serial, then run the query - close the query window, without saving changes At this point, pgAdmin instantly crashes with a segmentation fault. Some more information about my environment: - The operating system and version details -- Gentoo Linux - The version of pgAdmin you are running. -- pgadmin3-1.16.1-r1 (about window reports 1.16.1) - The configure options used (if compiled from source) -- for now I can provide the Gentoo USE flags: databasedesigner -debug - The wxWidgets version and configure options used (if compiled from source) -- I believe the answer is wxGTK-2.8.12.1, USE flags: X opengl sdl tiff -aqua -debug -doc -gnome -gstreamer -odbc -pch P.S. I suggest setting up a proper bug tracker instead of this medieval mailing list system -- View this message in context: http://postgresql.1045698.n5.nabble.com/pgAdmin-crashes-on-DDL-tp5754991.html Sent from the PostgreSQL - pgadmin support mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- Sent via pgadmin-support mailing list (pgadmin-support@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgadmin-support
