Re: Segmentation fault

Kevin,
That did it. Doing the command ulimit -c unlimited worked!

Thanks,

Lance

If running this shows a limit (especially zero):

ulimit -c

then run this in your shell before running psql:

ulimit -c unlimited

Look for a core file in your current directory after the failure.
If you get one, try running:

gdb --core=YOURCOREFILENAME

Once gdb is running, type:

bt

and post the results.
