Обсуждение: instalation problems!

Hello,
I tried to install PstgreSQL 7.1.1, and I got these error log:


gmake[3]: Leaving directory
`/users/noorbakh/postgreSQL/postgresql-7.1.1/src/backend/tcop'
gmake -C utils all
gmake[3]: Entering directory

gmake[1]: Leaving directory
`/users/noorbakh/postgreSQL/postgresql-7.1.1/src'
gmake: *** [all] Error 2

Can you explain me, how I can solve the problem?

Thanks in advance,
Fariba

Hm.  It looks like configure is choosing the wrong compiler options for
your platform.  What is your platform, exactly, and what does configure
report as the selected platform at the very start of its run?

Could be.  Try removing this hack from src/backend/utils/adt/Makefile:

# seems to be required for some date/time stuff 1999/07/22 bjm
ifeq "$(findstring alpha,$(host_cpu))" "alpha"
ifeq "$(GCC)" "yes"
override CFLAGS+= -mieee
endif
endif

I'd be interested to know whether the regression tests pass cleanly
after you do that.

Yup.  This option was introduced in GCC 2.8.0.

Hm.  Do we want to do something about that hard-wired hack in
utils/adt/Makefile?

I'm not sure whether gcc 2.7.* on Alpha is reliable enough for us to
care whether it builds Postgres ... but if it is, seems like configure
ought to take care of this.
