Обсуждение: has anyone tried running in MAC OS X

I guess the subject line says it....has anyone tried running 
PostgreSQL in MAC OS X. 

I see that in the product brochure, Apple specifically mentions Mysql. 
I run a shop that has all mac computers. I am runnng just 1 linux box 
(SUSE Linux on a Max G3) to run the job tracking system.

Please, I don't want to start a "my Os is better than yours" war. It is 
just a question....

Isn't OS X fairly close to NEXTSTEP (or whatever the casing is these days)?

How well does PostgreSQL work on NS?

Did you try building it yet?  :->

Some folks at Apple did.

Postgres 7.1 is alleged to build out-of-the-box on OSX.
(But I haven't tried it myself.)  Don't bother trying with
earlier releases.

Hi,

PostgreSQL 7.1.x does work on MacOS X, there's evan a MacOS X
installation guide at :

http://techdocs.postgresql.org/installguides.php#macosx

Hope that's helpful.  It's mainly focused on Apache + PHP + PostgreSQL
7.1 on MacOS X, although you should be able to make use of it.

If you need further assistance, feel free to ask.

:-)

Regards and best wishes,

Justin Clift

It works like a charm... I have succesfully compiled with a somewhat
standard configuration.

Not at all.
