Обсуждение: Install pgAudit extension
Hi
I need some advice on installing the pgAudit extension as I am new to PostgreSQL extenstions.
I currently have Postgres95 on Linux Redhat 6.8 running on the server and I need to test out the pgAudt extension.
I downloaded the file pgaudit-REL9_5_STABLE.zip from https://github.com/pgaudit/pgaudit/tree/REL9_5_STABLE
In the Readme file, under “Compile and Install” the instructions are:
1. Clone the PostgreSQL repository:
git clone https://github.com/postgres/postgres.git
2. Checkout REL9_5_STABLE branch:
git checkout REL9_5_STABLE
3. Make PostgreSQL:
./configure
make install -s
4. Change to the contrib directory:
cd contrib
5. Clone the pgAudit extension:
git clone https://github.com/pgaudit/pgaudit.git
6. Change to pgAudit directory:
cd pgaudit
7. Build pgAudit and run regression tests:
make -s check
8. Install pgAudit:
make install
My problem is that I can’t find the contrib directory anywhere on the server. ( assume this is because the install steps refers to the old Postfres 8???)
There is default directory for extensions in my current 9.5 install:
/usr/pgsql-9.5/share/extension/
As I have Postrgres9.5 installed and downloaded the zip file (pgaudit-REL9_5_STABLE.zip), I assume I only have to perform steps 7 and 8.
Do I just unzip the content into a directory /usr/pgsql-9.5/share/extension/pgaudit and then run the steps 7 and 8??? Or do I even need to run the make steps as all the files appears to be there. Ie .control, .sql, .conf, etc.
The makefile in pgaudit-REL9_5_STABLE.zip refers to …/contrib/pgaudit/….. ?????
# contrib/pg_audit/Makefile
MODULE_big = pgaudit
OBJS = pgaudit.o $(WIN32RES)
EXTENSION = pgaudit
DATA = pgaudit--1.0.sql
PGFILEDESC = "pgAudit - An audit logging extension for PostgreSQL"
REGRESS = pgaudit
REGRESS_OPTS = --temp-config=$(top_srcdir)/contrib/pgaudit/pgaudit.conf
ifdef USE_PGXS
PG_CONFIG = pg_config
PGXS := $(shell $(PG_CONFIG) --pgxs)
include $(PGXS)
else
subdir = contrib/pgaudit
top_builddir = ../..
include $(top_builddir)/src/Makefile.global
include $(top_srcdir)/contrib/contrib-global.mk
endif
Thanks for your help.
Regards
Dylan

if you installed postgres from the yum.postgresql.org repository, try...
yum install pgaudit_95

Looks like you installed PostgreSQL via community RPMS, so: https://yum.postgresql.org/9.5/redhat/rhel-6-x86_64/pgaudit_95-1.0.4-1.rhel6.x8 6_64.rpm it means, yum install pgaudit_95 will do the trick for installing. Then you can create the extension with: CREATE EXTENSION pgaudit; You will need to add some lines to postgresql.conf. Sample ones are here: https://github.com/devrimgunduz/pgextensionconfig/blob/master/9.5/pgaudit.conf -HTH Regards, -- Devrim GÜNDÜZ EnterpriseDB: http://www.enterprisedb.com PostgreSQL Danışmanı/Consultant, Red Hat Certified Engineer Twitter: @DevrimGunduz , @DevrimGunduzTR

With PGXS you don't need postgres's source code, only source code of pgaudit. But you need installed PostgreSQL. Here is the example: 1 - unzip pgaudit to a pgaudit directory 2 - go to a pgaudit directory: cd pgaudit 3 - compile and install: make USE_PGXS=1 make USE_PGXS=1 install It is assumed that pg_config is in your $PATH variable. If it is not then you can run: make USE_PGXS=1 PG_CONFIG=<path_to_postgres_bin>/pg_config make USE_PGXS=1 PG_CONFIG=<path_to_postgres_bin>/pg_config install -- Artur Zakirov Postgres Professional: http://www.postgrespro.com Russian Postgres Company
Hi Thanks for your reply. I have managed to get pgAudit install and I believe is working as I can see audit logs in my log files. I like to now install the PostgreSQL Audit Log Analyzer. Is there a similar rpm for the PostgreSQL Audit Log Analyser?
