Hello:

I am trying to install postgres 7.1 version on a Mips platform running Linux (2.4.17sb20020611 version).
The postgres source is compiled with Montevista cross compiler (gcc version 3.0.1) for the mips platform.

The problem I am having is that when I call initdb, the postgres dies because of the following error:

Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

This problem occurs in file postgresql-7.1.3/src/backend/access/heap/heapam.c (line 1808)
where it is trying to invoke log_heap_update function.

When I try to step into the function log_heap_update function, the program control goes into
memcpy and I get SIGSEGV fault.

Any help in resolving this problem is greatly appreciated.

Thanks very much.

Regards,
Niranjan.
