std::bad_alloc Loading SDK Sample Libraries

My problem is very similar to these two unanswered questions, but with a different Vertica version:

https://forum.vertica.com/discussion/235890/rollback-3399-vsql-create-library-failure-in-udx-error

https://forum.vertica.com/discussion/238717/unable-to-create-library-rollback-3399-failure-in-udx-rpc-call-invokegetlibrarymanifest

I installed Vertica 9.0.1 on Ubuntu using vertica_9.0.1-0_amd64.deb and installed the following:

sudo apt-get install libboost-dev libboost-doc
sudo apt-get install libbz2-dev
sudo apt-get install libcurl4-openssl-dev
sudo apt-get install zlib1g-dev

Next I:
1. copied /opt/vertica/sdk/examples to a subfolder of my home folder
2. ran make
3. Ran vsql -f on a few of the sql scripts

All of them produced:

[Code: 3399, SQL State: VP001] [Vertica]VJDBC ROLLBACK: Failure in UDx RPC call InvokeGetLibraryManifest(): Exception calling getLibraryManifest() in User Defined Object [], message: std::bad_alloc

Vertica is running fine; I have some schema and data loaded.

Comments

  • For what it's worth, there may be some additional hints on what's happening (e.g. out of memory in PermGen space) in the UDxFencedProcessesJava.log which resides under your database catalog/UDxLogs dir.

    Can you post the results of trying to compile just one of the Java example?

    Example:

    make JavaFunctions

  • See below for rerun results.

    I initially built using make. It gave warnings about skipping different components due to missing headers; the build appeared successful otherwise. I did not try loading it at this point; instead I installed headers using the apt-get commands above, rebuilt incrementially after each one, and then got a clean build from make. I have tried using make clean and then make again, and loading again, and still get bad_alloc.

    Log file is attached; interestingly there is only one failure directly related to the library file (I made multiple attempts on Jan 2).

    Rerun results from today:

    $ make clean

    rm -rf /home/jpotts/code/vertica-9-examples/build/tmp
    rm -f /home/jpotts/code/vertica-9-examples/build/.so
    rm -f /home/jpotts/code/vertica-9-examples/build/
    .jar
    rm -rf /home/jpotts/code/vertica-9-examples/build/Java*
    rmdir /home/jpotts/code/vertica-9-examples/build >/dev/null 2>&1 || true

    $ make

    (see attached; some folders obfuscated. appears successful)

  • Error I get using vsql (error in first post is using DBVisualizer):

  • Hi!

    What is version of Ubuntu?

    tldr: java fixed now; c++ sample still not working

    $ vsql -U dbadmin -f JavaFunctions.sql

    vsql:JavaFunctions.sql:14: ROLLBACK 5702: Couldn't create new UDx side process: Java Binary not found: /usr/bin/java/bin/java

    $ sudo -u dbadmin printenv | grep JAVA_HOME
    JAVA_HOME=/usr/bin/java

    The JAVA_HOME variable above is incorrect; it points at an executable rather than a folder. It wasn't obvious because it was only affecting the dbadmin user rather than my user account.

    How I found where JAVA_HOME was set
    grep -r JAVA_HOME /etc/* 2>&1 | grep -v "Permission denied"
    grep -r JAVA_HOME ~/.*

    JAVA_HOME was being set correctly here:

    • /etc/profile.d/jdk.sh
    • /etc/profile.d/jdk.csh

    But I had set it incorrectly here:

    • /etc/environment

    The profile.d flavor was loading into my personal login, but the /etc/environment flavor was being used for the dbadmin user.

    Fixed it by setting JAVA_HOME in /home/dbadmin/.bashrc

    Still getting std::bad_alloc for C++ example

    Hi!

    Ubuntu 16.04.3 LTS is unsupported platform, try 14.04 LTS.

    ps: I got same error on 16.04(just checked).

  • That's disappointing.

  • Hi Josh,
    Hope you are doing well.
    I got same error... on CentOS 7.3.... on gcc 7.3.1... and I can load properly with gcc 7.2.1... and it completely unexplainable.
    Statement that Ubuntu version is desupported is not relevant here, just a way to send you out.
    Try to compile on different box, may be luck will be with you.

  • Great to hear from you, hope all is well. We should grab a beer soon.

    I may try compiling on Ubuntu 14 with the default packages and see if I can get the binary to run on Ubuntu 16.

    Reach out to me through LinkedIn.

  • you need to compile with

    CXXFLAGS="-fabi-version=2 -D_GLIBCXX_USE_CXX11_ABI=0"

    to disable new ABI of std::string
    unless vertica is compiled with modern gcc

    tested on ubuntu 16 and debian 9 with vertica binaries compiled on gcc4X

    and now with vertica 9 you need to patch sdk (see attachment)
