So far as I can tell, the postmaster log isn't captured anywhere in the buildfarm report of this event. (Which seems like a buildfarm bug.) Given that polecat has already run a couple of later buildfarm iterations, I'm not too hopeful that you do have that log file. Was there any special environment here, like running out of disk space? regards, tom lane -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers(a)postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers

I did empty trash sometime yesterday after noticing I was around 1Gb of free disk. Not sure if that correlates or not. Maybe on failure buildfarm should could disk usage of the disk it's on and add that to the report? I'm just guessing, but it seems like a system-level condition like being out of disk space would explain concurrent similar failures for both of your animals. A quick look at UpdateControlFile shows that it definitely will PANIC if it gets any sort of failure while trying to write pg_control. It would be interesting to know what sort of failure it got, but I'm not going to (ahem) panic about it. It's annoying though that the buildfarm script didn't capture the relevant log file in this particular failure case. Andrew, can we get that fixed? regards, tom lane -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers(a)postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers

Not that I'm aware of. I did empty trash sometime yesterday after noticing I was around 1Gb of free disk. Not sure if that correlates or not. Maybe on failure buildfarm should could disk usage of the disk it's on and add that to the report? I've updated my OSX clients to keep error builds.
