Hello list,

I'm wondering if anyone has run into issues with st_assvg locking up postgresql. I have an application that generates svg from unioned sets of geometries. So far it has been working pretty well, except I just tested it with very large sets of geometries, and it invariably locks up the backend database without any errors etc. I could send a sample geometry if that would help, but I think this can probably be done with any dataset. I've verified that the problem is not with st_union, as it outputs a geometry just fine...it's only when it gets to st_assvg does it freeze things...there is no CPU activity. I do see this in the pg_log:

*** glibc detected *** postgres: postgres testdb [local] SELECT: realloc(): invalid next size: 0x000000000220f410 ***

Am I just expecting too much of the st_assvg function, or is this something that might be fixable?

Thanks for any advice,
Mike


Hi Mike,

Yeah, that sounds like a bug. What versions of PostgreSQL/PostGIS are you using? You may want to open a bug with a sample geometry on the PostGIS bugtracker.


ATB,

Mark.
