  1. results of regression tests: NetBSD/i386 v1.3

    Brook Milligan <brook@trillium.nmsu.edu> — 1998-02-17T07:19:39Z

    Now that I have run the regression tests for 6.3 on a NetBSD/i386 v1.3
    box I am wondering what to do with them.  Should they be used as a
    source for bug fixes before the next release?  If so, how should they
    be used?  By me only, or should I post them somewhere for others to
    review?
    
    Cheers,
    Brook

    Do they illustrate platform-specific bugs? If not, then we all can use
    our own platforms for these examples.
    
    If the differences are platform-specific, but expected, then perhaps Marc
    would like to get these for his "OS-specific" regression test
    comparisons??

    I'm not sure how I would recognize platform-specific bugs since I only
    have one platform.  In the past I've ignored them, but I just thought
    this might be the time to point out problems that need attention in
    case they are something unusual.
    
    Diffs from the expected output yield things like:
    
    - ERROR:  pg_atoi: error reading "100000": Math result not representable
    + ERROR:  pg_atoi: error reading "100000": Result too large
    
    - ERROR:  Bad float8 input format '10e-400'
    + ERROR:  Bad float8 input format '-10e-400'
    
    + ERROR:  check_fkeys2_pkey_exist: tuple references non-existing key in pkeys
    + ERROR:  check_fkeys_pkey_exist: tuple references non-existing key in pkeys
    
    - NOTICE:  check_pkeys_fkey_cascade: 1 tuple(s) of fkeys2 are deleted
    + ERROR:  check_fkeys2_fkey_restrict: tuple referenced in fkeys
    
    - ERROR:  Cannot insert a duplicate key into a unique index
    
    - NOTICE:  Non-functional update, only first update is performed
    
    If these are general diffs, I'll ignore them; otherwise, I'll be glad
    to give more specific information.

    These are typical platform-specific differences, and are expected. The last few
    examples are from the trigger tests, which are going to be revisited before v6.3
    release by Vadim (I hope :).

    Results are the same as in 6.2.1 expected. So, I just put 6.2.1 expected
    into 6.3 expected (with WARN: --> ERROR: translation). Should be ok now.
    Let's know if not.
