Description

I am experiencing issues with the tests failing on CLion using the MingW GCC compiler. Specifically, the issue seems to be caused by the readPhysicalPage method in CheckedFile.cpp throwing an exception due to the result not being equal to the physical page size. When I comment out this exception, the tests run fine, but then I encounter issues with checksum calculation.

Operating system: Windows 11 (64-bit) Compiler version: GCC IDE: CLion Please let me know if there is any additional information that you need.

Research direction
Investigate the readPhysicalPage method in CheckedFile.cpp to understand why it throws an exception when the result does not equal the physical page size. Check the checksum calculation after commenting out the exception.
