Build Identifier:

The bug can be created as follows:

create table ranges(
x_min decimal(8,5),
y_min decimal(7,5),
width integer,
nb integer
);

create table trips (
tripid bigint not null,
x decimal(8,5) not null,
y decimal(8,5) not null,
time bigint not null
);

UPDATE ranges SET nb = (SELECT count(*) FROM trips T
WHERE T.x between x_min and x_min + width
AND T.y between y_min and y_min + width);

Returns:

MAPI = (monetdb) /tmp/.s.monetdb.50000
ACTION= read_line
QUERY = UPDATE ranges SET nb = (SELECT count(*) FROM trips T
WHERE T.x between x_min and x_min + width
AND T.y between y_min and y_min + width);
ERROR = !Connection terminated

Reproducible: Always

Actual Results:

Error message:
MAPI = (monetdb) /tmp/.s.monetdb.50000
ACTION= read_line
QUERY = UPDATE ranges SET nb = (SELECT count(*) FROM trips T
WHERE T.x between x_min and x_min + width
AND T.y between y_min and y_min + width);
ERROR = !Connection terminated

Expected Results:

can you check your merovingian.log for some informative crash messages, perhaps?

Hi, unfortunately the crash message is not very explicit:

2011-11-09 17:44:39 MSG merovingian[14936]: database 'testbug' (15460) was killed by signal SIGSEGV
2011-11-09 17:47:55 MSG merovingian[14936]: database 'testbug' has crashed after start on 2011-11-09 17:43:55, attempting restart, up min/avg/max: 0s/0s/0s, crash average: 1.00 0.30 0.10 (3-0=3)

Precision: in the provided example, the tables are empty before the UPDATE statement. The message is the same when the tables are populated

fixed a bit cleaner now. In case of correlated updates (and subqueries) in the selection phase, we should use the inner query columns with in the aggregates.
