RE: Trouble with Berkeley DB version 4.4.20?


Hello,

I realize this is probably not the most flashy issue, but, if possible, I
would really like an answer to this question. I compiled BerkeleyDB 4.4.20
with the following in config.in:

INCLUDE = /usr/local/include/db44
LIB = /usr/local/lib # also tried /usr/local/lib/db44 directly
DBNAME = -ldb-4.4

# end of file config.in

I have done this upgrade path for BerkeleyDB and Perl several times; from
1.85 -> 4.1 -> 4.2, and now -> 4.4.20. It has always worked well. Even now
it compiles just fine. It just isn't stable anymore.

If someone out there has an idea, I'd really like to know.

Thanks,

- Mark

Subject: Trouble with Berkeley DB version 4.4.20?

Hello,

Am I the only person having trouble with Berkeley DB version 4.4.20?
I've been using 4.2 for quite a while. Then I upgraded, a few days back.
But a Perl process that actually uses it (BerkeleyDB-0.30) has become
unstable. I've been ktracing it, and setting log-points myself, but it
keeps core dumping at places where it accesses BerkeleyDB. Sporadically,
but often enough.

Naturally I compiled BerkeleyDB-0.30 against the correct libraries (in
config.in). And it seems more or less ok, but not always. Finally, this
morning, I just did a full restore from an earlier date; db44 is not
working out for me, obviously.

I'm not sure whether it's Berkeley DB version 4.4.20 or BerkeleyDB-0.30,
or a combination of the two; but I wonder if someone else has had trou-
ble with it, too? Sometimes I got a weird lock error notice; but other-
wise it remains a mystery.
