I have solved the failed tests reported a few days ago, and I have now the proof that none of them is blamed on sqlite.
For what it is worth, here are the details:

The source is sqlite 3.4.1 last updated on August 9

The platforms and compilers are:
- Enterprise 3, 32 and 64 bits, gcc 3.2.3
- Enterprise 4, 64 bits, gcc 3.4.4
- Fedora 5, 64 bits, gcc 4.1.1

The failures that recurred after several fulltest runs were:
- lock4-1.3 (error, the database is locked)  on Enterprise 3, 32 bits
- malloc2-1.1.34 and malloc2.1.5, on Enterprise 3, 32 bits (checksums)
- printf-8.1 and printf-8.2 on Enterprise 3 and 4, 64 bits (error, integer value too large to represent)

They were solved as follows:

1. lock4 seemed to be a delayed lock reset by the NFS service, affecting only slow client machines. When I ran fulltest it happened; meanwhile testfixture lock4.test, run after a couple of minutes delay, would succeed the first time; if run again immediately, it would fail again.
Solved by just moving everything to a local disk and repeating the tests.

2. malloc2.test would fail only if run immediately after malloc.test or during fulltest. Probably another instance of something being delayed. Stopped happening after the move to the local disk.

3. printf.test: The value too large to represent was 0x80000000 and the message comes from tclObj.c:Tcl_Get_Int. Solved by getting tcl 8.4.15, where the test that deals with differences between the int type and long type on 64 bit boxes has been changed. On Fedora5 which has tcl8.4.13 this does not happen either.

The only useful lesson seems to be (a) use a new tcl and (b) stay away from networks when testing or at least (c) test on a fast computer.

just my two bits,

The string "integer value too large to represent" is not found in sqlite sources, so I assume it is an error in either in Tcl or the tcl test harness.

I have no idea why the checksum of the databases in malloc2-1.1.28.5
is different, or whether it is harmless.

As for the malloc2.1.5 failure, as far as I can tell looking at the test, an empty abc table should be present.

I have no idea about lock4-1.3.

I'd suggest to make a ticket for each of these test errors.

Here are the fulltest errors I get trying to build sqlite 3.4.1 with the included gcc on Enterprise 3, 4 and Fedora 5. After building tcl8.4.7 and installing it in /usr/local, I was able to configure with "--with-tcl=/usr/local/lib" and build the two libraries completely and then run the fulltest on Enterprise 3 as well. I hope someone will find these useful and will be able to tell me to what extent the builds may be used or not. Meanwhile, I will redo these builds, wit the Intel 9.1.052 compiler this time, and I will post the fulltest results.
Please advise, and thank you very much,

Can you post the output for the failed tests?

i.e.:

Hello, everyone. I just started to look at the software and I have two questions:
Question 1:
========
Building sqlite-3.4.1, as obtained from the cvs, on Fedora 5, 64 bits, with gcc 4.1.1, over glibc-2.4-11, and tcl/tcl-devel 8.4.13-1.1,
followed by "make fulltest", I get the following three failed tests:

lock4-1.3  malloc2-1.1.31.5  malloc2.1.5


Building the same with the Intel compiler icc 9.1.051, I get 8 failures as follows:

bind-4.4 bind-4.5 expr-2.26 malloc2.1.5 printf-13.6 utf16-bind-4.4 utf16-bind-4.5 utf16-expr-2.26
