Обсуждение: Building with MinGW issue
Howdy, I want to build Postgresql 9.1 under Windows with MinGW but I get this error message whever I configure the project: checking openssl/ssl.h usability... no checking openssl/ssl.h presence... no checking for openssl/ssl.h... no configure: error: header file <openssl/ssl.h> is required for OpenSSL How can I fix this issue? P.S. I use the following options for configuring call: $ ./configure --without-zlib --with-openssl --with-includes=C:/OpenSSL-Win32/include --with-libraries=C:/OpenSSL-Win32/lib /MinGW -- Best Regards, Muhammad Bashir Al-Noimi

The most likely scenario that accounts for the above is that a PATH is not being found correctly. I will and have admitted to not being familiar with MinGW, but I pretty certain that my scenario is correct. You can choose to ignore the above, but my guess is doing so will lead down the wrong path(sorry, could not resist:)). > I read https://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/Building_With_MinGW but it > didn't mention SSL support so I've to go with OpenSSL some guy in this > mailing list faced this issue before but unfortunately no one responded > http://web.archiveorange.com/archive/v/V95x82sNS8lCeW2yiGEY ; Today I'm > facing same problem once again and I hope to get the help from people > who really used MinGW > > P.S.

Thanks a lot Adrian; I successfully configured PG with MinGW & OpenSSL

Umm, this *is* on a proprietry platform. The problem is that if it isn't tested much then people don't find the problems... We try to support as many platforms as possible, but are limited by what people actually use. And in this case it's not the compiler that's the problem but the system libraries, which are different from every other platform.

I am not sure what you mean, I compile my Postgres instances from source using GCC on a regular basis. Now if you are talking to about the precompiled binaries that is up to folks compiling the source, in this case EnterpriseDB. They do that as a service to the community and from all accounts it has greatly aided the use of Postgres on Windows. They have forums you could bring this up on and make the case for MinGW. Your particular issue seems to be the intersection of three things MinGW, Windows, and Postgres. MinGW is basically bringing a subset of Unix to Windows and that accounted for your first problem, finding the correct path. The second problem seems to a disagreement between MinGW and Postgres on what struct stat is. You have raised the issue which is good, but you might, as previously suggested, also raise it with the MinGW developers/community. They may already have a solution that this list is unaware of. In the end open source is about the people in it working towards solutions. You can make your wish of improved support for MinGW come true by helping in finding the answers. > -- Adrian Klaver adrian.klaver@gmail.com
