The first step was trying to run the tests. On Mac, I get this error when I run "./configure" and then "gmake check": [Output omitted] sh: line 1: 51711 Abort trap: 6 "psql" -X postgres < /dev/null 2> /dev/null sh: line 1: 51714 Abort trap: 6 "psql" -X postgres < /dev/null 2> /dev/null sh: line 1: 51717 Abort trap: 6 "psql" -X postgres < /dev/null 2> /dev/null sh: line 1: 51721 Abort trap: 6 "psql" -X postgres < /dev/null 2> /dev/null pg_regress: postmaster did not respond within 60 seconds Examine /Users/kevin/src/ github.com/postgres/postgres/src/test/regress/log/postmaster.log for the reason gmake[1]: *** [GNUmakefile:132: check] Error 2 gmake[1]: Leaving directory '/Users/kevin/src/ github.com/postgres/postgres/src/test/regress' gmake: *** [GNUmakefile:69: check] Error 2 I'm confused because the logs indicate that the database started. 2021-02-13 14:39:47.132 PST postmaster[51535] LOG: starting PostgreSQL 14devel on x86_64-apple-darwin19.6.0, compiled by Apple clang version 12.0.0 (clang-1200.0.32.28), 64-bit 2021-02-13 14:39:47.133 PST postmaster[51535] LOG: listening on Unix socket "/var/folders/s1/909yt58s4wj8h_7v7frr8rkm0000gn/T/pg_regress-o1o8IS/.s.PGSQL.58080" 2021-02-13 14:39:47.138 PST startup[51538] LOG: database system was shut down at 2021-02-13 14:39:47 PST 2021-02-13 14:39:47.141 PST postmaster[51535] LOG: database system is ready to accept connections Perhaps the issue is that psql is looking in the wrong place? I ensured that there's no psql in my $PATH before running "gmake check", but if I install it, it looks for a socket in /tmp, not /var/folders. Some other notes: For fun I tried seeing if I could use mesalink - github.com/mesalock-linux/mesalink - as a drop in replacement for OpenSSL. I need to specify two "includes" folders and it was unclear how to do this from the configure --help output - commas? colons? Specify the flag multiple times? The answer ended up being colons but this could be more obvious. Is there a way to run just the tests for a particular part of the code? The docs on running the tests weren't clear, and starting "gmake check" seems slow in the best case. In my case I'd like to run just the tests related to OpenSSL, and src/backend/libpq/be-secure.c.

The two known workarounds are (1) do "make install" before "make check"; (2) turn off SIP. We've made occasional efforts to develop a less fragile solution. If you're interested in helping with the latest such effort, see https://www.postgresql.org/message-id/flat/ecec88aa-c982-a473-1b0f-cea596d405cf@enterprisedb.com > Is there a way to run just the tests for a particular part of the code?

The core regression tests aren't subdivided, but on the other hand they only take a few seconds on any modern hardware (hint: use the parallelized make targets). There are a lot of other test suites scattered around the tree, and those can be run individually. In your case I'd venture that "make check" in src/test/ssl/ might cover most of what you care about (but see the README there for caveats --- it transiently opens ports). Also, for repeated test runs, using "make install" and then "make installcheck" can save time. regards, tom lane ^ permalink raw reply [nested|flat] 2+ messages in thread
