Supported Platforms
- PostgreSQL has been verified by the developer
- community to work on the platforms listed below. A supported
- platform generally means that PostgreSQL builds and
- installs according to these instructions and that the regression
- tests pass. Build farm
entries refer to active test
- machines in the
- PostgreSQL Build Farm.
- Platform entries that show an older version of
- PostgreSQL are those that did not receive explicit testing at the
- time of release of version &majorversion; but that we still
- expect to work.
-
-
-
-
- If you are having problems with the installation on a supported
- platform, please write to pgsql-bugs@postgresql.org
- or pgsql-ports@postgresql.org, not to the people
- listed here.
