Crash on pg_ctl initdb without options
Started by Takahiro Itagakiabout 16 years ago2 messages
pg_ctl initdb crashes if no options are passed.
Do we need additional if-null test for pgdata_opt just like post_opts?
$ pg_ctl initdb
sh: -c: line 0: syntax error near unexpected token `null'
sh: -c: line 0: `"/usr/local/pgsql/bin/initdb" (null)'
pg_ctl: database system initialization failed

Oops. Please fix it. :)
