Thanks Eric. How though?
The instructions here --
http://reorg.projects.postgresql.org/pg_reorg.html -- are woefully
incomplete.
I have a standard PG install on WHM/Cpanel type server. I know the
path to pgsql. I can download the pg_reorg.1.1.5.tar.gz into this
folder and untar it. Then what? A "make" and "make install" does not
work -- the usual "./config" stuff is not available.
Sorry, I need more detailed steps.
I googled and found this:
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.0/static/contrib.html
But the recommended steps:
gmake
gmake install
...don't work either. Here's what I see:
[mydomain] src > cd pg_reorg-1.1.5
[mydomain] pg_reorg-1.1.5 > gmake
Makefile:13: ../../src/Makefile.global: No such file or directory
gmake: *** No rule to make target `../../src/Makefile.global'. Stop.
[mydomain] pg_reorg-1.1.5 >
What am I missing?
PS. If pg_reorg is such a useful contribution, why can't it be
included with PG? Seems like a very useful tool anyway! No?
Thanks.
