Tom,
the full path was:
/Users/asacksadmin/Documents/postgresql-8.0.0rc2
this is where the source lived and where I issued the
./configure --with-xxx and yyy
make
make check //which failed
sudo make install
there are no spaces in the path..
interesting on a different note.... Ab :)
I wanted to test the installation so I did a
createlang (for plpgsql) and a
createdb extremedb
psql extremedb
</Users/asacksadmin/Desktop/extbackup10.txt
I get an error at the top....
ERROR: permission denied for language c
maybe my order is out of wack.
I did the ./configure while logged in as an
administrator. then moved the folder to a standard
account where the make check passed..
Then I moved the folder back to the admin account
because I didn't want to have to learn in that second
how to give sudo permissions to a non admin account.
After moving the folder back to the admin account I
did the sudo make install and it appeared to install
fine. Except for that error.
Any ideas. I will ask around on how to give sudo privs
to a non admin account.
