Обсуждение: Support on Enterprise Linux (newbie)
Hi, Is PostGreSQL and libpqxx supported on Enterprise Linux? If yes, which version supports it? TIA, Deepesh.
In an attempt to throw the authorities off his trail, deepesh@motorola.com (Agarwal Deepesh-A19519) transmitted: > Hi, > > Is PostGreSQL and libpqxx supported on Enterprise Linux? > > If yes, which version supports it? What is "Enterprise Linux"? (Aside from the future version to be deployed on starships...) It is quite likely that if "Enterprise Linux" includes: a) A reasonably modern version of Linux, which is an operating system kernel produced by Linus Torvalds and the "cast of thousands," b) A reasonably modern version of GLIBC, a GNU project which I believe is mostly managed by folks at the "Cygnus Solutions" division of Red Hat Software, and c) Some reasonable set of ancillary libraries, tools, compilers, and such, You can quite likely compile and run PostgreSQL on the system. It certainly runs well on numerous other flavours of Linux, including Debian, various releases by Red Hat Software, SuSE, MandrakeSoft, and those wild and crazy guys of Slackware. But it's hard to guarantee that you haven't found some new distribution on which it might not run. -- (reverse (concatenate 'string "ofni.secnanifxunil" "@" "enworbbc")) http://linuxfinances.info/info/spreadsheets.html "Linux is not ready for the Enterprise. There is not a single voice-controlled app for any of the mission critical functions of the Enterprise. Conspicuously absent are warp core control, phaser bank activation, interstellar navigation, transporter operation, and the all-important self-destruct sequence. Until these and thousands of other important apps are written and deployed, Linux will just be a toy in the Enterprise." -- Kevin Novak, Network Computing Magazine
O.k. to actually answer the question in a useful manner. The gentlemen probably meansIf yes, which version supports it?What is "Enterprise Linux"? (Aside from the future version to be deployed on starships...)
RedHat Enterprise or SuSE Enterprise.
To answer his question, yes it will run -- quite well on the two Enterprise Linux variations.
It will also should run on any modern Linux distribution without issue.
Sincerely,
Joshua D. Drake
