Postgres will actually be spitting the error to a file called
"logfile", while saying it was successful to STDOUT. Your error is in
there.

I am not sure about mac, but still i suppose, you might have to add below
entry in your pg_hba.conf file to set it right:

host all all 127.0.0.1 255.255.255.255 trust

failed compile csv version PostgreSQL

Hello

I can't compile csv version on my linux 7.3. Previous versions I compiled
without problems. First errors is in linking SUBSYS.o.

I have gcc 3.2.2, bison 1.2.8, lex 2.5.4. (configure I run without
params) Have I upgrade some libs or tools?

Thank you
Pavel

You need bison 1.875 or later to build current Postgres.
