Subject: discrepancy between "make check" output and documentation
Date: Tue, 11 Feb 2003 20:01:21 -0800
Message-ID: <p05200f1eba6f767bf04e@[192.168.254.206]> (raw)

Installing PostgreSQL 7.3.2 on FreeSD 4.7 I found the following discrepancy
between the output from "make check" and "reality":

I ran make check and the output ended thusly:

=======================
 1 of 89 tests failed.
=======================

The differences that caused some tests to fail can be viewed in the
file `./regression.diffs'.  A copy of the test summary that you see
above is saved in the file `./regression.out'.

rm regress.o
gmake[2]: Leaving directory
`/ad4/ENV/common/src/DB/postgresql-7.3.2/src/test/regress'
gmake[1]: Leaving directory `/ad4/ENV/common/src/DB/postgresql-7.3.2/src/test'


So I decided to view the file `./regression.diffs'
   vlb@cfcl [...DB/postgresql-7.3.2] 130: more ./regression.diffs
   ./regression.diffs: No such file or directory

Oops.  Turns out it's in `./src/test/regress/regression.diffs'
