Bus error when running Hieraki

Rails
1

I have been trying to set up Hieraki 2.0.1 and I cannot seem to
get it running. I am running on FreeBSD 5.4, Ruby 1.8.4,
Apache 2.0.55, Mysql 4.1.16, ruby-mysql 2.7, mod_scgi 1.9,
scgi_rails 4.3 and Rails 1.0. I can start up the wiki, get
it to display the home page, and when I click on the signup link
the signup form displays. When I fill in the signup form and
click the signup button, the hieraki app crashes with a bus error.
When I look in the log, it appears that it has inserted the user
information into the users table and it has inserted a row into
the pages table. Right after the insert into the pages table,
is when the bus error occurs.

I have tried recompiling everything. I have tried running Hieraki
under Webrick. I have tried running Hieraki using edge Rails. I
have made sure the database is initialized properly using the
provided schema.

I have turned on tracing and tracked the execution to doing a
notify call for the before_validation callback on an instance of
FolderRevisionMeta.

Anybody seen anything like this?

I have tracked down the problem and I thought I would post the
solution to the list in case anybody else runs into this. I
had originally installed ruby 1.8.4 using the port in
/usr/ports/lang/ruby18. This compiles ruby with pthread support.
I noticed when doing a postmortem on the core file that it was
dying while trying to change threads. I have compiled ruby
without pthread support using the port in
/usr/ports/lang/ruby18-nopthreads and everything seems to be
working fine now.
