Обсуждение: Slackware 9 Build Problems
Hi-- I've recently installed Slackware 9 (after using Mandrake and RedHat in the past), and I've been attempted to build both Postgres 7.3 and 7.1, and I'm not having success with either of them. The configure script runs fine, but when I attempt 'gmake', I get a long list of parse errors and warnings, and the build fails. gcc version is 3.2.2 and gmake is 3.80. I'd be glad to send the gmake output to a text file and post that if it might help. TIA bmj

Must be some dependency error.. I have 7.3.2 installed on slackware 9 and it worked out of box. ( OK since it works now, I don't remember if I tweaked anything..but point is it works) Exact logs would surely be useful.. Shridhar

Hi Brian, I doubt I'll be able to solve the actual problem for you, but just so you know it can be done, I've compiled and built PostgreSQL 7.3.2 with no problems on Slackware 9 (actually there were problems running it but that turned out to be a buggy bios). Regards, Dave

Most of the errors point to specific values/tuples/references within the source code. I'm still sorta feeling my way around the Slackware package system...did you install via the source tarball from postgres, or did you generate a .tgz package and use Slack's installpkg? thanks bmj

Here it looks like: #define PG_VERSION_STR "PostgreSQL 7.1.3 on i586-pc-linux-gnulibc1, compiled by GCC 2.95.3" Kurt

I found one error. src/include/config.h: line 35: Complete the string literal, put " at the end of line There are more errors and I am investigating them.. Let's see but I am sure that will work..:-) HTH Shridhar

Does 7.3.2 give the same warnings/errors? 7.1.3's configure doesn't cope with the multi-line output that recent versions of gcc emit for "gcc --version". Thus the bogus value of PG_VERSION_STR. Try actually using 7.3.2 ;-) regards, tom lane

Yup, out of the box Slackware 9. > I'm still sorta feeling my way around the Slackware package > system...did you install via the source tarball from postgres, or did > you generate a .tgz package and use Slack's installpkg? Unpacked the tarball, then ./configure; make; make install Couldn't be more standard (that's the way I like too keep it - easier to rebuild if the worst happens!). Regards, Dave.
