The PostgreSQL logfile only shows:
postgres(64978) in free(): bogus pointer (double free?) 0x4a115aec398
2018-09-06 12:01:52.202 PDT [45953] LOG: server process (PID 64978) was terminated by signal 6: Abort trap
2018-09-06 12:01:52.202 PDT [45953] DETAIL: Failed process was running: ...
2018-09-06 12:01:52.202 PDT [45953] LOG: terminating any other active server processes
If there is another place I should look, please let me know. The log
files of the client process don't show anything during the crash,
probably because the client libpq connection was just dropped when the
server process crashed. After the crash, other client libpq connections
show the following, which is probably expected:
WARNING: terminating connection because of crash of another server process
DETAIL: The postmaster has commanded this server process to roll back the current transaction and exit, because another server process exited abnormally and possibly corrupted shared memory.
HINT: In a moment you should be able to reconnect to the database and repeat your command.
I'll try to install a version with debug symbols on September 14, and
if it crashes again I'll respond with a more complete and accurate
backtrace.
Thanks,
Jeremy
