So, are you running BDB 4.2 with or without the patches that sleepycat says you must use to use BDB 4.2?
I would have to investigate that. We're running the Debian packaged version 4.2.52-18. I'm guessing possibly not.
Because I use the patches that sleepycat says to use, and I have no problems with log purging.
That's probably it, then. <sigh> So now we'll have to decide whether to do a custom build or find a workaround.
Thanks!
