Hi Everyone,
I'm running II 9.0.4 (a64.lnx/105)NPTL +patch12125

I created a new database the other day, no problems with the create
but a subsequent checkpoint of the database (its first) gave the errors...
   E_SC010D_DB_LOCATION Database Location Name: $default Physical
   Specification: /dbdata1/II/ingres/data/default/ace_pack Flags: 00000003
   E_DM0011_BAD_DB_NAME Illegal database name.
   E_SC0121_DB_OPEN Error opening database.  Name: ace_pack Owner:
   ace Access Mode: 00000002 Flags 40000000

The checkpoint refused to die, I even tried removing the session from
the server but it refused to go.

In the end I had to crash the installation, but then the recovery server
refused to start, it gave a SIGSEGV in the DMF...
   Segmentation Violation (SIGSEGV) @PC 00002b2dbeea74cd
   RSP 00007fffffce7440  RBP 00007fffffce7620  RSI 00002b2dc6c6cd50
   RDI 00002b2dc6c6cd50  RAX 0000000000000030  RBX 00002b2dc72d0138
   RCX 00000000038c9c89  RDX 0000000000000018

Eventually I had to destroy and recreate my transaction logfiles to get
the damn thing to restart.

Clearly there is nothing wrong with the database name 'ace_pack'. Can
anyone shed some light on this?
